    Verse 1
    Well 
    they 
    tell 
    me 
    of 
    pie 
    up 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    Waiting 
    for 
    me 
    when 
    die 

    But 
    be
    tween 
    the 
    day 
    you're 
    born 

    and 
    when 
    you 
    die 

    They 
    never 
    seem 
    to 
    hear 
    even 
    your 
    cry 

    Chorus 1
    So 
    as 
    sure 
    as 
    the 
    sun 
    will 
    shine 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    my 
    share 
    now, 
    what's 
    mine 

    And 
    then 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Ooh 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Verse 2
    Well 
    the 
    oppressors 

    are 
    trying 
    to 
    keep 
    me 
    down 

    Trying 
    to 
    drive 
    me 
    underground 

    And 
    they 
    think 
    that 
    have 
    got 
    the 
    battle 
    won 

    say 
    for
    give 
    them 
    Lord 

    They 
    know 
    not 
    what 
    they've 
    done 

    Chorus 2
    'Cause 
    as 
    sure 
    as 
    the 
    sun 
    will 
    shine 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    my 
    share 
    now, 
    what's 
    mine 

    And 
    then 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Ooh 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    Harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Interlude 1
    Ooh 
    yeah, 

    ooh 
    yeah 

    Woah 
    yeah, 

    oh 
    yeah 

    Verse 3
    And 
    keep 
    on 
    fighting 
    for 
    the 
    things 
    want 

    Though 
    know 

    that 
    when 
    you're 
    dead 
    you 
    can't 

    But 
    I'd 
    rather 
    be 
    free 
    man 
    in 
    my 
    grave 

    Than 
    living 
    as 
    puppet 
    or 
    slave 

    Chorus 3
    So 
    as 
    sure 
    as 
    the 
    sun 
    will 
    shine 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    my 
    share 
    now, 
    what's 
    mine 

    And 
    then 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Ooh 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    The 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Outro 1
    What'd 
    say 
    now, 
    what'd 
    say 
    now 

    Oh 


    What'd 
    say 
    now, 
    what'd 
    say, 
    one 
    time 

    The 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    Harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all 

    Ooh 
    the 
    harder 
    they 
    come 

    The 
    harder 
    they'll 
    fall, 
    one 
    and 
    all

    • 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.
