    Verse 1
    Half 
    the world 
    concerned 

    with a slightly 
    tar
    nished 
    masterpiece 

    Hoping 
    to return 
    as the 
    once 

    forgot
    ten 
    cul
    ture 
    thief 

    Lying 
    on its 
    side, 

    the 
    stately 
    vessel 
    now 
    replete 

    With 
    harbingers 
    of peace, 

    Interlude 1
    telling 
    lies 


    Verse 2
    Waiting 
    at 
    the 
    door 
    with a stance 
    se

    cure 
    in second 
    thought

    Overlooking 
    signs 
    of the 
    spiritual 

    bereavement's cost 

    Trying 
    to 
    arrive 
    at a des
    tination 

    that 
    they've 
    lost 

    To ig
    norance 
    which 
    winks 

    at them 
    and smiles 

    Verse 3

    Listen 
    well 

    The 
    pa
    tience 
    of 
    the people 

    soon 
    will end 

    Time 
    will 
    tell 

    As the 
    melting 
    of 
    your 
    plastic 

    smile 
    be
    gins 

    Verse 4

    Sailing 
    ships 
    of state 
    and ig
    noring 

    nav
    igation 
    laws 

    Through 
    the sea 
    of man, 

    the captains 
    mad 
    with 
    power 
    pause 

    And con
    gratulate 
    themselves 

    on the vir
    tuous 
    and 
    noble 
    cause 

    Which must 
    surely 
    save 

    the world 
    and 
    alter 
    time

    • 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.
