    Verse 1
    Black 
    hair, 
    the 
    night 
    descending 

    Baby 
    never 
    puts 
    her 
    trust 
    in 

    Tight 
    black 
    tie 
    too 
    quick 
    to 
    laughter 

    Ain't 
    no 
    telling 
    what 
    he's 
    after 

    Verse 2
    Found 
    a 
    friend 
    without 
    religion 

    Riding 
    on 
    a stolen 
    engine 

    Far 
    too 
    fast 
    to 
    pacify 
    you 

    Ain't 
    no 
    telling 
    what 
    he's

    Verse 3
    In 
    time, 
    the 
    night 
    may 
    soften 

    Trust 
    that 
    I'm 
    still 
    hoping, 
    darling 

    Wooden 
    coin, 
    he 
    called 
    my 
    daughter 

    No 
    good 
    knowing 
    what 
    came 
    after 

    Verse 4
    Met 
    a 
    man 
    with 
    missing 
    fingers 

    Shaking 
    hands 
    with 
    shaded 
    strangers 

    Far 
    too 
    strong 
    to 
    pacify 
    you 

    Ain't 
    no 
    telling 
    what 
    they're 

    Interlude 2
    up

    Verse 5
    Late 
    night, 
    the cock 
    crows 
    shortly 

    Morning 
    through 
    the 
    open 
    doorway 

    All 
    us 
    servants 
    beg 
    the 
    master 

    Ain't 
    no 
    knowing 
    what 
    he's 
    after 

    Verse 6
    In 
    a 
    year 
    of 
    fallen 
    angels 

    Broken 
    hands 
    and 
    boys 
    in 
    danger 

    Pray 
    the lord 
    might 
    pacify 
    you 

    Ain't 
    no 
    telling 
    what 
    he's

    • 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.”
