    Verse 1
    Have you 
    seen 

    the 
    rivers 
    of 
    the 
    blood? 

    First 
    a trickle, 
    then a flood 
    - - 

    First 
    the ocean's 
    pounding 
    roar, 

    Then a tid
    al 
    wave 
    hits 

    upon the 
    shore. 

    Knives 
    and ar
    rows 
    fell 
    like 
    rain, 

    And 
    the powder 
    burst 
    aflame, 

    And 
    the flames 
    they 
    flew so 

    high 
    - - 

    Dropped their 
    poison 
    down 
    from the 
    sky. 

    Verse 2
    In the 
    shadow 
    of 
    the bygone 
    days 

    Millions 
    died 
    in 
    million 
    ways. 

    Now 
    the whining 
    of the 

    missile's call: 

    It's time 
    to rise 
    or it's 
    time 
    to fall, 

    For 
    now 
    one million 
    bombs 
    are 
    stored, 

    But they 
    keep 
    building 
    more 
    and 
    more. 

    Can't 
    you 
    hear 
    the 
    warning 
    sound? 

    Don't 
    you 
    know 
    there's still 

    time 
    to 
    turn 
    around? 

    In the 
    shadow 
    of 
    Verse 3
    the bygone 
    days 

    Millions 
    died 
    in 
    million 
    ways. 

    Now 
    the whining 
    of 
    the 

    missile's call: 

    It's time 
    to rise 
    or it's 
    time 
    to fall, 

    For 
    now one 
    million 
    bombs 
    are 
    stored, 


    They keep 
    building 
    more and 
    more. 

    Can't 
    you you 
    hear 

    the warning 
    sound? 

    Don't 
    you 
    know 
    there's still 

    time 
    to turn around? 

    - - time 
    to turn 
    around.

      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

      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 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.
