    Verse 1
    I 
    was 
    half 
    asleep 
    in 
    the washroom 

    when 
    they 
    came 
    in 

    Eyes 
    like 
    moonlight 
    on 
    barbed 
    wire 

    and 
    veins 
    showing 
    under 
    the skin 

    The 
    uniforms 
    made 
    me nervous, 

    I 
    got 
    ready 
    for 
    the 
    chase 

    But 
    they 
    left 
    me 
    scanning 
    these 
    crowds 

    for 
    some 
    sign 
    of 
    your 
    face 

    Verse 2

    Something 
    fell 
    on 
    Saskatchewan 
    in 
    1885 

    Where 
    is 
    it 
    now 
    that 
    we 
    need 
    it, 

    in 
    this century 
    of 
    jive? 

    The axe 
    falls 
    as 
    if through 
    water, 

    never 
    leaves 
    a 
    trace 

    And 
    I'm 
    scanning 
    these 
    crowds 

    for 
    some 
    sign 
    of 
    your 
    face 

    Verse 3

    The 
    world 
    shot 
    down 
    love 
    as 
    a spy, 

    once 
    upon 
    a 
    time 
    ago 

    Now 
    people 
    stand 
    around 
    here, 

    like 
    crows 
    in 
    the snow 

    Like the 
    shadow 
    of 
    the 
    rope 
    on 
    Louis 
    Riel, 

    they 
    look 
    so 
    clean 
    out 
    of 
    place 

    And 
    I'm 
    scanning 
    these 
    crowds 
    for 
    some 
    sign 

    of 
    your 
    face 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Though storms 
    may 
    still 
    kiss 
    the 
    grasslands 

    with 
    primal 
    fire 

    In 
    the land 
    of 
    passive 
    revolution, 

    everything's 
    for hire 

    Are 
    they demons, 
    are they 
    lemmings, 

    or 
    just 
    the 
    humans 
    in 
    this 
    place? 

    Lord, 
    I'm 
    scanning 
    these 
    crowds 

    for 
    some 
    sign 
    of 
    your 
    face

      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.
