    Verse 1
    I've 
    heard 
    it said 

    that 
    wise 
    man 

    Does 
    not 
    live 
    on 
    bread 
    alone 

    But 
    off 
    the 
    everlasting 
    words 

    Dripping 
    from 
    the 
    Almighty's 
    tongue 

    Verse 2

    And 
    I've 
    heard 
    it said 
    that 
    a wise 
    man 

    Does 
    not 
    look 
    at 
    himself 
    in the 
    mirror 

    Then 
    turn 
    away 
    and 
    walk 

    Forgetting 
    what 
    he 
    looks 
    like 

    stand
    ing 
    there 

    Verse 3

    Oh, 
    men 
    like 
    these 

    They 
    are 
    just 
    like 
    trees 

    Planted 
    near 
    streams 
    of 
    water 

    With 
    root
    s that 
    grow 

    Interlude 1
    Deep, 
    deep 
    into 
    the ground 



    I've 
    heard 
    it said 
    Verse 4
    that 
    a wise 
    man 

    Ignores 
    the call 
    from 
    the corner 

    Even 
    with 
    her 
    seductive 
    eyes 

    He turns 
    away, 

    he 
    doesn't 
    listen 
    to 
    her 
    lies 

    Verse 5

    And 
    oh, 
    men 
    like 
    these 

    They 
    are 
    just 
    like 
    trees 

    Planted 
    near 
    streams 
    of 
    water 

    With 
    roots 
    that 
    grow 

    Verse 6
    Deep, 
    deep 
    into 
    the 
    ground 


    Into 
    the ground 

    Into 
    the ground 

    Into 
    the 
    ground 

    Verse 7

    Into 
    the ground 

    Into 
    the ground 

    Interlude 2
    Into 
    the ground 


    And 
    oh, 
    men 
    Verse 8
    like 
    these 

    They 
    are 
    just 
    like 
    trees 

    Planted 
    near 
    streams 
    of 
    water 

    With 
    root
    s that 
    grow 

    Verse 9
    Deep, 
    deep 
    into 
    the 
    ground 


    Into 
    the 
    ground 

    Into 
    the ground 

    Into 
    the ground 

    Verse 10

    Into 
    the ground 

    Into 
    the 
    ground 

    Into

    • 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.
