    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 
    you 
    said 
    to 
    me 

    How I 
    would 
    grow 
    to 
    find

    A 
    world 
    of 
    hope 
    an
    d 
    won
    der 

    That 
    you 
    would 
    leave 
    be
    hind 

    So 
    now 
    I 
    look 
    around 
    me 

    I 
    see 
    where 
    you 
    were 
    wrong 

    The 
    tears 
    that 
    flow 
    for 
    equal 
    right
    s 

    Have 
    fallen 
    far 
    too 
    long 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in 
    the 
    town
    ship 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in the 
    plain 

    Does 
    the 
    sun 
    still 
    rise 
    on 
    the 
    land 
    of 
    lies 

    Every 
    day 
    in 
    fear, 
    every 
    day in 
    shame 



    And 
    I 
    was 
    told 
    no 
    man 
    was 
    judged 

    By 
    color 
    or 
    by 
    creed 

    So 
    why 
    do 
    some 
    have 
    streets 
    of 
    gold 

    While 
    others 
    only 
    need 

    No, 
    you 
    cannot 
    tell 
    me 

    There 
    is 
    pride 
    in 
    fearing 
    pain 

    A 
    na
    tion 
    born 
    in 
    a 
    coun
    try 
    torn 

    I 
    know 
    the 
    rightful 
    claim 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in 
    the 
    town
    ship 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in 
    the 
    plain 

    Does 
    the sun 
    still 
    rise 
    on 
    the 
    land 
    of 
    lies 

    Every 
    day 
    in fear, 
    every 
    day 
    in shame 



    Take 
    away 
    the 
    newsreel 

    And 
    take 
    the 
    world 
    to 
    task 

    One 
    man 
    one 
    vote 
    as 
    nations 
    quote 

    Is 
    that 
    too 
    much 
    to 
    ask 

    And 
    now 
    I 
    look 
    around 
    me 

    I 
    see 
    where 
    you 
    were 
    wrong 

    The 
    tears 
    that 
    flow 
    for 
    equal 
    rights 

    Have 
    fallen 
    far 
    too 
    long 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in the 
    town
    ship 

    Way 
    down 
    south 
    in 
    the 
    plain 

    Does 
    the 
    sun 
    still 
    rise 
    on 
    the 
    land 
    of 
    lies 

    Every 
    day 
    in 
    fear, 
    every 
    day in 
    shame

      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.
