    The mist 
    creped in 
    across 
    the 
    Verse 1

    ocean, 

    Across 
    the beach 
    low 
    on the 
    ground. 

    So 
    deadly 
    cold, 
    so deadly 
    silent, 

    It hit 
    the bridge 
    across 
    the bay 

    And 
    floated 
    slowly 
    on 
    its way 

    right 
    into 
    town. 

    Verse 2

    A car 
    bought 
    cottage 
    in a 
    doorway, 

    A simple 
    man 
    lies 
    down 

    to sleep. 

    A simple 
    man 
    - a simple 
    story. 

    A life 
    of 
    hardship, 
    hunger, 
    pain, 

    The 
    simple 
    man 
    within 
    the mist 

    as lost 
    again. 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    so 
    strange 
    that in 
    this 
    world 
    full 

    of 
    commer
    ce 
    and 
    gain, 

    Don't 
    you think 
    it 
    seems 
    so 
    in
    sane? 

    That 
    with 
    the 
    knowledge 
    we 
    have 

    and 
    the price 
    that 
    we pay. 

    No 
    one 
    saved 
    the 
    simple 
    man. 

    Verse 4

    The 
    simple 
    man 
    has 
    no solution. 

    He 
    has 
    no voice 
    that 
    can 
    be 
    heard. 

    He 
    doesn't 
    know 
    he 
    has 
    a 
    problem. 

    He 
    flickers 
    out 
    just 
    like a 
    light, 

    Because 
    he 
    never 
    learn 
    to 

    struggle 
    or to 
    fight. 

    Verse 5
    It's 
    so 
    strange 
    that 
    in 
    this 
    world 
    full 

    of 
    commer
    ce 
    and 
    gain, 

    Don't 
    you 
    think 
    it 
    seems 

    so 
    in
    sane? 

    That with 
    the knowledge 
    we 
    have 

    and 
    the price 
    that we 
    pay. 

    No 
    one 
    saved 
    the 
    simple 
    man. 

    Verse 6
    Ha 
    . . . ha . . . ha. 
    . . 

    Verse 7
    That 
    with 
    the knowledge 
    we 
    have 

    and the 
    price 
    that 
    we 
    pay. 

    No 
    one 
    saved 
    the simple 
    man.

      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 🙂

      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 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.
