    Verse 1
    These 
    are 
    the 
    days 
    of 
    the 
    open 
    hand 

    They 
    will 
    not 
    be 
    the 
    last 

    Look 
    around 
    now 

    These 
    are 
    the 
    days 

    of 
    the 
    beggars 
    and 
    the 
    choosers 

    This 
    is 
    the 
    year 
    of 
    the 
    hungry 
    man 

    Whose 
    place 
    is 
    in 
    the 
    past 

    Hand 
    in 
    hand 
    with 
    ignorance 

    And 
    legitimate 
    ex
    cus
    es 

    Pre-chorus 1
    The 
    rich 
    declare 
    themselves 
    poor 

    And 
    most 
    of 
    us 
    are 
    not 
    sure 

    If 
    we 
    have 
    too 
    much 

    But 
    we'll 
    take 
    our 
    chances 

    'Cause 
    God's 
    stopped 
    keeping 
    score 

    guess 
    somewhere 
    along 
    the 
    way 

    He 
    must 
    have 
    let 
    us 
    all 
    out 
    to 
    play 

    Turned 
    his 
    back 
    and 
    all 
    God's 
    children 

    Crept 
    out 
    the 
    back 
    door 

    Chorus 1
    And 
    it's 
    hard 
    to 
    love, 

    there's 
    so 
    much 
    to 
    hate 

    Hanging 
    on 
    to 
    hope 

    When 
    there 
    is 
    no 
    hope 
    to 
    speak 
    of 

    And 
    the 
    wounded 
    skies 
    above 

    say 
    it's 
    much, 
    much 
    too 
    late 

    Well, 
    maybe 
    we 
    should 
    all 
    be 
    praying 
    for 
    time 

    Interlude 1




    Verse 2
    These 
    are 
    the 
    days 

    of 
    the 
    empty 
    hand 

    Oh, 
    you 
    hold 
    on 
    to 
    what 
    you 
    can 

    And 
    charity 
    is 
    coat 
    you 
    wear 
    twice 
    year 

    This 
    is 
    the 
    year 
    of 
    the 
    guilty 
    man 

    Your 
    television 
    takes 
    stand 

    And 
    you 
    find 
    that 
    what 
    was 
    over 
    there 

    Pre-chorus 2
    is 
    over 
    here 

    So 
    you 
    scream 

    from 
    behind 
    your 
    door 

    Say, 
    "What's 
    mine 
    is 
    mine 
    and 
    not 
    yours" 

    may 
    have 
    too 
    much 

    but 
    I'll 
    take 
    my 
    chances 

    'Cause 
    God's 
    stopped 
    keeping 
    score 

    And 
    you 
    cling 
    to 
    the 
    things 
    they 
    sold 
    you 

    Did 
    you 
    cover 
    your 
    eyes 
    when 
    they 
    told 
    you 

    That 
    he 
    can't 
    come 
    back 

    'Cause 
    he 
    has 
    no 
    children 

    to 
    come 
    back 
    for 

    Chorus 2
    It's 
    hard 
    to 
    love, 

    there's 
    so 
    much 
    to 
    hate 

    Hanging 
    on 
    to 
    hope 

    When 
    there 
    is 
    no 
    hope 
    to 
    speak 
    of 

    And 
    the 
    wounded 
    skies 
    above 

    say 
    it's 
    much 
    too 
    late 

    So 
    maybe 
    we 
    should 
    all 
    be 
    praying 
    for 
    time

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
