Verse 1
G

Over land,

I traveled time and space and quicksand
Verse 2

And for sixty days I knew no other road
G


And through the maelstrom,

which turned in time with the kick drum

I was swallowed and twisted
C
G

and spit out on the coast

And in this place there stands a gate

that leads to the heart of the city

And I've spent seven years and a sea of

fears in this broken mirror of a city
F

Listen to the streets there's a
C
G

heartbeat missing in the city

Sweet sunlight, well,

I can see it in my mind's eye
C
G

Yeah I remember feeling alright

And I saw black clouds and Turin shrouds

and it smelled of a faded empire
C
G

It's all concrete and steel

We're asleep at the wheel,

and the mayor's just a gun for hire
F

Listen to the streets,

Verse 3

G

I've heard the song the

morning sings

Outside the gate is everything
C

Let in the light, let in the light
G

A streetwalker said to me,

she has no need for history
C
G

She has the key, she has the key

Sweet sunlight, well,
C
G

I can see it in my mind's eye

Let in the light, let in the light
Verse 4
G

Waking up from a dream where I was

the stone and you were the stream

And Chemical City isn't all that you need

But it's all that you're getting
Verse 5

and they've hidden the key
F

Listen to the streets,
C
G

there's a heartbeat missing in the city

Verse 6
C

Let in the light, let in the light
G

I said this place is an unnatural disaster

And I'm a visitor here so

I asked her
C

Where are the trees,
G

where are the trees?

And she said free yourself from history
C
G

That is the key, that is the key

Sweet sunlight, well,

I can see it in my mind's eye
C

I see the light,

Can you feel it? There's a

Where all the fat-cats are are

hissing at your pity

  • 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.
