  • Verse 1

    The 
    sum of all 
    my fears like 

    dread, are 
    from 
    demons 
    yet 
    to come 

    All 
    the 
    things 
    I should've 
    mentioned, 

    wave 
    good
    bye and 
    "we'll see 
    you 
    soon" 

    It's 
    the 
    words 
    I've never 
    written 

    that say 
    more about 
    myself 

    Where 
    empty 
    is 
    the promise, 

    lies 
    pocket 
    full 
    of 
    doubt 

    Verse 2
    So 
    may 
    the 
    road 
    I've yet 
    to 
    take 

    Leave 
    smile 
    across 
    my 
    face 

    Till 
    the 
    laughter 
    sheds 
    the 

    darkness 
    far 
    be
    hind 

    For 
    I still 
    belong 
    in 
    the 
    cradle 
    of humankind 

    Verse 3
    Though my 

    time may be 
    less 
    traveled, 

    than 
    those that came 
    before 

    We're 
    all 
    exiles 
    here 
    in madness, 

    kicking 
    down 
    each other's 
    door 

    Unfor
    given is 
    the lesson, 

    we 
    pour upon 
    ourselves 

    When a 
    helping 
    hand's 
    is needed, 

    a slap 
    in the 
    face 
    is 
    what we 
    get 

    Verse 4
    But 
    I will 
    fight 
    for this 
    right 
    and each 

    moment 
    of it's 
    life 

    Till I 
    witness 
    all the 
    differences 
    yet to 
    heal 

    So 
    may the 
    road 
    I've 
    yet to 
    take 

    Leave 
    smile 
    across 
    my 
    face 

    Till the 
    laughter 
    sheds the 

    darkness 
    far be
    hind 

    For 
    still be
    long 
    in 
    the 

    cradle 
    of 
    humankind 


    Verse 5
    Sometimes 
    drink till 
    am 
    empty, 

    grab an
    other from 
    the shelf 

    Though I'm 
    stuck in 
    conversation, 

    it's 
    with my
    self 
    and 
    no one 
    else 

    Never 
    listen 
    to 
    much 
    reason 

    till I 
    hear it's 
    last 
    call 

    When I 
    notice 
    that my 
    ghost 

    is still 
    dancing 
    on his 
    own 

    So 
    may the 
    road 
    I've 
    yet to 
    Verse 6
    take 

    Leave a 
    smile 
    across 
    my 
    face 

    Till the 
    laughter 
    sheds the 

    darkness 
    far be
    hind 

    For 
    still be
    long 
    in 
    the 
    cradle 

    of human
    kind 

    Wherever 
    you 
    go 
    Verse 7

    Wherever 
    you 
    go 

    Wherever you 
    go 

    Oh, 
    wherever 
    you 
    go 

    There will always 
    be 
    a roof and 
    a dream 
    above 
    our 
    Verse 8

    heads 

    As long as 
    I'm 
    breathing, 

    then 
    forever 
    I'll 
    be 

    Ah, 
    will 
    fight 
    for 
    this 
    right 
    and 

    each 
    moment 
    of 
    it's 
    life 

    Till 
    witness 
    all 
    the 
    dif
    ferences 
    yet to 
    heal 

    So 
    may 
    the 
    road 
    we've yet 
    to 
    Verse 9
    take 

    Leave 
    smile 
    across 
    my 
    face 

    Till 
    the 
    laughter 
    sheds 
    the 

    darkness 
    far 
    be
    hind 

    We 
    still 
    be
    long 
    in 
    the 
    cradle 
    of humankind

    • 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.
