    The

    up 
    world 

    we're 
    living

    ity 
    would be 
    smashed, 

    by some 
    inner 
    city 
    wisdom 
    trash 

    Instead 
    my 
    own 
    phobia 
    ec
    centricity 
    is 

    growing 
    out 
    of every

    I 
    don't want 
    to move 

    but 
    may
    be 
    I'll 
    be 
    forced

    board 

    up 
    the win
    dows

    Verse 9
    People 
    die 
    and nature 
    re
    places 

    You 
    see the 
    lives 
    in all 
    the 
    faces 

    Of so-called 
    lunatics 
    lunatics 

    and 
    basket 
    cases 

    Who'd hang 
    themselves 
    with their 

    shoe 
    laces 

    Verse 10

    They 
    have 
    no place 
    in 
    the rat 
    race 

    As

    society 
    which 
    just 
    misplaces 

    Puts 
    more 
    importance 

    on money 
    not

    filled 
    with 
    all 

    the 
    aces

      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 🙂

      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 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.

      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.
