  • Verse 1
    The stories 
    of 
    the street 

    are 
    mine 

    The Span
    ish 
    voices 
    laugh 

    The 
    Cadillacs 
    go 
    creeping 
    now 

    Through the 
    night 
    and 
    the 
    poison 
    gas 

    And 
    lean 
    from 
    my 
    window 
    sill 

    In this 
    old 
    hotel 
    chose 

    Yes, 
    one 
    hand 
    on 
    my suicide 

    One 
    hand 
    on 
    the 
    rose 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    know 
    you've 
    heard 
    it's 
    over 
    now 

    And war 
    must 
    surely 
    come 

    The cities 
    they all 
    broke 
    in 
    half 

    And the 
    middlemen 
    are 
    gone 

    But 
    let 
    me 
    ask 
    you 
    one 
    more 
    time 

    children 
    of 
    the dusk 

    All 
    these 
    hunters 
    who are 
    shrieking 
    now 

    Oh, 
    do 
    they 
    speak 
    for 
    us? 

    And where 
    do 
    all 
    these 
    highways 
    go 

    Now 
    that 
    we are 
    free? 

    Why 
    are 
    the 
    armies 
    marching 
    still 

    That were 
    coming 
    home 
    to 
    me? 

    Verse 3
    lady 
    with 
    your 
    legs 
    so 
    fine 

    stranger 
    at your 
    wheel 

    You 
    are 
    locked 
    into 
    your suf
    fering 

    And 
    your 
    pleasures 
    are 
    the seal 

    The 
    age 
    of 
    lust 
    is 
    giving 
    birth 

    And 
    both 
    the parents 
    ask 

    The nurse 
    to tell 
    them 
    fairy 
    tales 

    On 
    both 
    sides 
    of 
    the glass 

    And now 
    the infant 
    with 
    his cord 

    Is 
    hauled 
    in 
    like 
    a kite 

    And one 
    eye 
    filled 
    with 
    blueprints 

    One 
    eye 
    filled 
    with night 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 4
    come 
    with me 
    my 
    little 
    one 

    We 
    will 
    find 
    that 
    farm 

    And 
    grow us 
    grass 
    and 
    apples 
    there 

    And 
    keep 
    all 
    the animals 
    warm 

    And 
    if by 
    chance 
    wake 
    at night 

    And 
    I ask 
    you 
    who 
    am 

    take 
    me 
    to 
    the slaughterhouse 

    will 
    wait 
    there 
    with 
    the lamb 

    With one 
    hand 
    on 
    the hexagram 

    And one 
    hand 
    on 
    the 
    girl 

    balance 
    on 
    wishing 
    well 

    That 
    all 
    men 
    call 
    the world 

    We 
    are so 
    small 
    Verse 5
    between 
    the stars 

    So 
    large 
    against 
    the sky 

    And lost 
    among 
    the subway 
    crowds 

    try 
    to catch 
    your 
    eye

    • 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.
