    THE PROMISE 
    OF THIS 
    LAND 

    Once 
    upon 
    a prom
    ised 
    land 

    From 
    sea 
    to shin
    ing 
    sea 

    People 
    lived 
    by freedoms 
    light 

    Folks 
    like 
    you 
    folks 
    like 
    me 

    And 
    out 
    there 
    in 
    this 
    promised 
    land 

    Behind 
    every 
    door 

    Any
    one 
    could 
    dare 
    to 
    dream 

    Like 
    no 
    place 
    else 
    like 
    none 
    before 

    And 
    so 
    we 
    came 
    from 
    everywhere 

    Together 
    and 
    alone 

    Searching 
    for 
    a 
    better 
    life 

    Then 
    the 
    one 
    we 
    had 
    known 

    And 
    so 
    we 
    come 
    to
    night 

    No 
    matter 
    where 
    we 
    stand 

    To keep 
    the 
    promise 
    of 
    this 
    land 




    But 
    out 
    there 
    in 
    this 
    prom
    ised 
    land 

    Beneath 
    this 
    fairy 
    tale 

    Sud
    denly 
    the 
    wind
    s of 
    change 

    Have 
    steered 
    a 
    course 

    bey
    ond 
    the pale 

    And 
    with 
    this 
    new 
    real
    ity 

    Where 
    nothing's 
    as 
    it 
    seems 

    Can 
    our 
    chil
    dren 
    still 
    believe 

    They'll 
    fi 
    nd a way 

    to 
    reach 
    their 
    dreams 

    And as 
    we face 
    uncer
    tainty 

    We 
    hear 
    our 
    fathers 
    call 

    We 
    the 
    people 
    shall 
    unite 

    Honor 
    bound 
    for one 
    and 
    all 

    And 
    though 
    we 
    dis
    agree 

    Hell 
    it's 
    all 
    part 
    of 
    the plan 

    To 
    reach 
    the 
    promise 
    of 
    this 

    land 


    Are 
    we 
    all 
    part 
    of the 
    prom
    ised 
    land 

    Or 
    is 
    it 
    just 
    for 
    some 

    Our 
    fathers 
    seem 
    to 
    have 

    said 
    it 
    right 

    I t's 
    E pluribus 
    un
    um 

    They 
    fought 
    and 
    they 
    died 

    Against 
    tyranny's 
    lies 

    And 
    that's 
    for 
    every
    one. 
    Everyone 

    With a 
    torch 
    burning 
    bright 

    Till 
    dawns 
    early 
    light 

    And 
    from 
    the 
    many 
    one 

    We 
    are 
    one 

    The 
    promised 
    land 
    the 
    promised 
    land 

    To the 
    promise 
    of 
    this 
    land 

    So 
    we've 
    got 
    to choose 
    hope 

    Not 
    hate 

    But 
    faith 

    I 
    n 
    our 
    better 
    angels 

    Truth 

    No, 
    no 
    lies 

    And 
    give 
    help 
    to 
    the 

    hands 
    of strangers 

    Raise your 
    voice 

    Clap 
    your 
    hands 

    Stom
    p 
    your 
    feet 

    The 
    promised 
    land 
    the promised 
    land 

    To 
    the 
    promise 
    of 
    this 
    land 

    There 
    ain't 
    no 
    guarantees 

    It's 
    up 
    to 
    you 
    and 
    me 

    To keep

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.

      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.
