The Eve Of The War easy guitar chords by 
Jeff Wayne
Intro 1
No one would have believed
In the last years of the nineteenth century
That human affairs were being watched
from the timeless worlds of space
No one could have dreamed
that we were being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope studies
creatures that swarm and multiply
in a drop of water
Few men even considered the possibility
of life on other planets
And yet, across the gulf of space
Minds immeasurably superior to ours
Regarded this Earth with envious eyes
And slowly and surely,
they drew their plans against us

G
At midnight, on the 12th of August
A huge mass of luminous gas erupted
Am
from Mars and sped towards Earth
Across two hundred million miles of void,
G
invisibly hurtling towards us
Came the first of the missiles
that were to bring so much calamity to Earth
Am
As I watched, there was another jet of gas
Am
It was another missile, starting on its way

And that's how it was
F
Em
for the next ten nights
A flare, spurting out from Mars
Dm
Am
Bright green, drawing a green mist behind it,
Am
E
a beautiful but somehow disturbing sight
E
Am
Ogilvy, the astronomer,
assured me we were in no danger
Am
E
He was convinced there could be
E
Am
no living thing on that remote,
forbidding planet
Chorus 1

"The chances of anything coming from Mars

Am
Then came the night the first missile
approached Earth
Am
E
It was thought to be an ordinary falling star
But the next day there was a huge crater
E
Am
in the middle of the Common,
and Ogilvy came to examine what lay there
F
Em
A cylinder, thirty yards across,
glowing hot,
Dm
Am
and with faint sounds of movement
Am
E
coming from within
Suddenly the top began began moving,
E
Am
rotating, unscrewing
Am
And Ogilvy feared there was a man
E
inside trying to escape
E
He rushed to the cylinder but the intense heat
Am
stopped him before he could burn
himself on the metal

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
