    Meanwhile 
    back 
    in the 
    year 
    Verse 1

    one 

    When you 
    belonged 
    to no 
    one 

    You didn't 
    stand 
    a chance, 
    son 

    If 
    your pants 
    were 
    un
    done 

    Verse 2
    'Cause 
    you were 
    bred, 

    for human

    And sold 
    to soci
    ety 

    One 
    day you'll 
    wake 
    up, 
    in the 
    present 
    day 

    A 
    mil
    lion 
    generations 
    re

    moved 
    from

    Verse 3
    skating 
    away, 
    skating 
    away 

    On 
    the thin 
    ice 
    of 
    the new 
    day 

    Verse 4

    So 
    as 
    you push 
    off from 

    the 
    shore 

    Won't you 
    turn 
    your head 
    once 
    more 

    And 
    make 
    your peace 

    with every
    one 

    For those 
    who choose 
    to 
    stay 

    Will 
    live 
    just 
    one 
    more 
    day 

    To 
    do the 
    things they 
    should've 
    done 

    And 
    as you 
    cross 
    the wilderness 

    Spin
    ning 
    in your 
    emptiness 

    If you 
    have 
    to, 
    pray 

    Looking 
    for a 
    sign, 

    that 
    the 
    uni

    Has

    the new 
    day 

    Verse 6

    And 
    as you 
    cross 
    the circle 
    line 

    Well, 
    the ice 
    wall creaks 
    be
    hind 

    You're 
    a rabbit 
    on 
    the run 

    And the 
    silver 
    splinters 
    fly 

    In 
    the 
    corner 
    of 
    your 
    eye 

    Shining 
    in the 
    setting 
    sun 

    Well, 
    do you 
    ever 
    get 
    the 
    feeling 

    That 
    the 
    story's 
    too 
    damn 
    real 

    And in 
    the 
    present 
    tense? 

    Or 
    that everybody's 
    on 
    the 
    stage 

    An

    it seems 
    like you're 
    the 
    only 

    Person 
    sitting 
    in 
    the 
    audi
    ence? 

    Skating

    of 
    the new 
    day 

    Verse 8

    Skating 
    away, 
    skating

      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 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.
