    • Verse 1

    They 
    called 
    him 
    the 

    King, 
    the 

    King, 
    and 
    everyone 
    bowed 
    to 
    the 

    King. 

    He 
    had 
    women 
    by 
    the 
    dozen, 

    and 
    there 
    never was 
    a 
    night 
    when 
    he 
    was 
    all 
    alone. 

    They 
    called 
    him the 
    king, 

    the 
    king, 

    Cause 
    he 
    had 
    his 
    own 
    special 
    thing 

    An
    d 
    nobody 
    dared 
    to 
    hate 
    him 

    Men 
    would 
    imitate 
    him 

    And 
    he 
    reigned 
    su
    preme 
    on 
    his 
    throne 

    The 
    world 
    was 
    his 
    blue 

    -point 
    oyster 

    He 
    wore 
    the 
    stars 
    for 
    his 
    crown 

    But 
    when 
    you 
    reach 
    the 
    summit, 

    and 
    then 
    you 
    start 
    to 
    plummet, 
    the 
    only 
    direction 
    is 
    down. 

    The 
    pendulum 
    swings 
    and 
    brings 
    a 

    new 
    generation 
    of 
    king
    s. 

    An
    d 
    soon 

    His 

    Royal 

    High
    ness 
    was 
    just 
    another 
    minus, 

    a 
    face 
    in 
    the 
    noonday 
    crowd. 

    For 
    he 
    who 
    was 

    everyone's 
    passion 

    Now 
    finds 
    himself 

    slightly 
    out 
    of fash
    ion 

    The 
    king 
    is 
    dead, 

    gone 
    live 
    the 
    king, 
    the 
    king 

    The 
    king, 
    the 
    king 

    They 
    called 
    him the 
    king, 

    they 
    called 
    him 
    the 
    king 

    The 
    king 
    is 
    dead. 

    Long 
    live 
    the 
    king. 

    The 
    king 
    is 
    dead. 

    Long 
    live 
    the 
    king.

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
