    Verse 1
    Once I 
    read a book 

    And this 
    is what 
    it said 

    If 
    your music 
    has 
    a beat 

    Then 
    you're gonna 
    wind up dead 

    It 
    doesn't really 
    matter 
    if 
    It's 
    Verse 2

    Christian 
    or not 

    If it's 
    syncopated 
    rhythm 

    Then your soul 
    is gonna 
    rot 

    Verse 3
    And this 
    book 
    was called 

    â??Ha! You're 
    gonna 
    burnâ?? 

    And in the 
    second 
    chapter 

    I went 
    on 
    to learn 

    Take 
    two 
    Verse 4
    houseplants 

    And 
    put 
    them to 
    the 
    test 

    Set 
    them both 
    in 
    front 
    of speakers 

    And let 
    the mu
    sic 
    do 
    the rest 

    The 
    first 
    one 
    you 
    play 
    Mozart 

    Or 
    something 
    lovely 
    like that 

    The second 
    one you 
    play 
    that 

    Petra 
    or that 
    MegaDeth 

    Doesn't really 
    matter 

    what 
    kind 
    of rock 
    it is 

    Verse 5
    So 
    took 
    my 
    two 
    houseplants 

    And I put 
    them 
    to 
    the 
    test 

    Set 
    them both 
    in 
    front 
    of speak
    ers 

    To 
    let 
    the mu
    sic 
    do 
    the rest 

    powered 
    up 
    my Pi
    oneers 

    To 
    let 
    the music 
    roar 

    But 
    twenty 
    minutes 
    later 

    Someone's 
    knocking 
    at my 
    door 

    opened 
    up 
    the door 

    And there 
    may 
    neighbor 
    stood 

    He 
    said, 
    â??Man, I'd like 
    to get 

    some 
    sleep 
    if you 
    think I 
    couldâ?? 

    I said, 
    â??Man, can't 
    you see 
    here 

    I've 
    got 
    this moral 
    dilemma 
    that 

    I got 
    to get 
    clearâ?? 

    He said, 
    â??What kind 
    of moral 

    dilemma 
    could 
    you 
    have 
    at this 

    time 
    of night 
    that 
    could 
    make 

    me so 
    angry 
    that 
    just 
    want 

    to 
    fightâ?? 

    Verse 6
    So I 
    pointed 
    to the 
    page 

    In that 
    open 
    book 

    That had 
    pictured 
    of a potted 

    plant, 
    and 
    I said, 

    â??Go have 
    lookâ?? 

    And he read 

    Take 
    two 
    Verse 7
    houseplants 

    And 
    put 
    them to 
    the test 

    Set 
    them both 
    in front 
    of speak
    ers 

    And 
    let the 
    mu
    sic 
    do the 
    rest 

    The 
    first 
    one 
    you play 
    Mozart 

    Or something 
    lovely 
    like that 

    The 
    second 
    one you 
    play 
    that 

    Petra 
    or 
    that 
    MegaDeth 

    Doesn't 
    really 
    matter 

    What kind 
    of rock 
    it 
    is 

    Verse 8

    â??First of 
    all,â?? he said, 

    â??that's Wagner 
    that you're 
    playing 

    I've 
    never 
    heard 
    of Petra 

    And isn't 
    MegaDeth all 
    dead. 

    And 
    secondly, 
    emphatically, 

    He 
    asked 
    me, 
    â??What's the sense 

    Of 
    hanging 
    out 
    with 
    houseplants 

    when, hey, 
    live 
    right 
    across 

    the 
    fenceâ?? 

    Verse 9
    And I thought 
    to 
    myself 
    You know, that's 
    a good 

    point 

    Verse 10
    So 
    took 
    my 
    two 
    houseplants 

    And I 
    put 
    them both 
    back 
    out
    side 

    An
    d me 
    and 
    my 
    neigh
    bor 

    Well, 
    we 
    went 
    out 
    for 
    drive 

    We 
    talked 
    about 
    all 
    the things 

    That 
    really 
    matter 
    most 

    Like 
    life 
    and love 
    and 
    happiness 

    And 
    then 
    the 
    Holy 
    Ghost 

    Verse 11
    And 
    now 
    my 
    two 
    houseplants 

    They sit 
    out 
    in the sun

    As 
    for me 
    and my 
    neighbor 

    Well 
    our friendship 
    has 
    be
    come 

    meaningful 
    rela
    tionship 

    That's 
    headed 
    straight 
    to 
    heaven 

    But 
    as 
    for now 
    We like 
    to sit 
    around 
    Verse 12

    • 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.
