    Verse 1
    High 
    above 
    the 
    forest 

    in 
    an 
    unseen 
    place 

    Where 
    the 
    clouds 
    will 

    gather 
    on 
    another 
    race 

    In 
    the 
    dungeon 
    depth
    of 

    an 
    unknown 
    cave 

    There's 
    a stream 
    that 
    springs 
    with 

    a world 
    to 
    save 

    And 
    it 
    gathers 
    up 
    strength 
    as 
    it 
    rolls 
    along 

    And 
    it 
    gathers 
    up 
    hope 
    for 
    everyone 

    But 
    it 
    runs 
    to 
    plain
    s where 
    the 

    farmlands 
    weep

    Through 
    the brand 
    new 
    gar

    dens 
    where 
    rich 
    men 
    sleep 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    find 
    it, 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    prove 
    it 

    And 
    show 
    the 
    whole 
    damned 

    world 
    how 
    to use 
    it 

    When 
    find 
    it, 
    when 
    prove 
    it 

    know that 
    some 
    damned 

    fool 
    is 
    gonna 
    lose 
    it 

    For 
    it's the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    from 
    the 
    pool 
    of 
    tears 

    It's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    it's 
    the 
    river 
    we 
    lost 
    for 
    years 


    Past 
    the chemical 
    plant 

    where 
    the 
    junk 
    flows 
    in 

    By 
    the nuclear 
    pro
    ject 
    where 

    the 
    chil
    dren 
    swim 

    Under 
    bridges 
    in 
    city 

    where 
    the 
    bodies 
    float 

    And 
    the summer 
    smell 
    keep

    s the 
    flies 
    remote 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    find 
    it, 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    prove 
    it 

    And 
    show 
    the 
    whole 
    damned 

    world 
    how 
    to 
    use 
    it 

    When 
    find 
    it, 
    when 
    prove 
    it 

    know 
    that 
    some 
    damned 

    fool 
    is gonna 
    lose 
    it 

    For 
    it's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    from 
    the 
    pool 
    of 
    tears 

    It's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    it's 
    the river 
    we 
    lost 
    for 
    years 

    Through 


    the swamp 

    of 
    a ghetto 
    where 
    the mission 
    was 
    lost 

    Where 
    the 
    dope 
    is 
    king 

    and 
    the sil
    ver 
    boss 

    Past 
    the 
    trash 
    and 
    wreckage 
    from 

    the 
    garbage 
    truck

    Past 
    the 
    oil 
    slick 
    where 

    the 
    jail 
    boat 
    dock

    To 
    home 
    in 
    some 
    sea 
    at 

    the nations 
    end 

    Where 
    the submar
    ine 

    is 
    freedom's 
    friend 

    If 
    we 
    need 
    that 
    river 
    like 
    we 
    did 
    before 

    There 
    can 
    be 
    no 
    need 
    for 

    it 
    lives 
    no 
    more 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    find 
    it, 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    prove 
    it 

    And 
    show 
    the 
    whole 
    damned 

    world 
    how 
    to use 
    it 

    When 
    find 
    it, 
    when 
    prove 
    it 

    know 
    that 
    some 
    damned 

    fool 
    is 
    gonna 
    lose 
    it 

    For 
    it's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    from 
    the 
    pool 
    of 
    tears 

    It's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    it's 
    the 
    river 
    we 
    lost 
    for 
    years 

    For 
    it's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    from 
    the 
    pool 
    of 
    tears 

    It's 
    the 
    river 
    of 
    hope, 

    it's 
    the river 
    we 
    lost 
    for 
    years

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.

      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.
