    Verse 1
    Why 
    don't 

    we 
    go 
    back 
    to 
    the 
    shape 

    And 
    leave 
    this 
    old 
    lady 
    alone 

    We've 
    pushed 
    and 
    we've 
    pulled, 

    we've 
    killed 
    and 
    we've 
    mauled 

    And 
    there's 
    nowhere 
    to 

    hide 
    from 
    the 
    sun 

    Why 
    do 
    we 
    take 
    more 
    than 
    we 
    need? 

    What 
    is 
    this 
    strange 
    disease? 

    We 
    turn 
    everything 
    we 
    can 
    see 
    into 
    money 

    Damn 
    the 
    earth, 
    damn the 
    sky, 

    damn 
    the 
    sea
    s 

    Why 
    do 
    we 
    destroy 
    so 
    much 
    life, 

    When 
    we're 
    more 
    than 
    flesh 
    on 
    the 
    bone? 

    I 
    jump 
    in 
    my 
    truck, 
    but 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    luck, 

    Cos 
    most 
    of 
    the 
    trees 
    are 

    now 
    gone. 

    Take 
    the 
    girls 
    for 
    a 
    pony 
    ride, 

    show 
    them 
    a 
    brigalow 

    Like 
    the 
    hair 
    on 
    my 
    face 

    it 
    was 
    all 
    over 
    the 
    place, 

    eighty 
    -odd 
    years 
    ago 

    There's 
    a 
    couple 
    on 
    the 
    side 
    of 
    the 
    road, 

    and 
    one's 
    got 
    some 
    kind 
    of 
    grub 

    There 
    was 
    box 
    and 
    board, 

    a 
    rebar 
    and 
    black 
    wallaby, 

    past 
    the 
    old 
    load, 
    down 
    the 
    pub
    . 

    There 
    was 
    supplejack 
    and 
    leopard 
    wood, 

    my 
    old 
    wilgar, 
    and 
    it 
    goes 
    on. 

    I 
    jump 
    in 
    my 
    truck, 
    but 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    luck, 

    cos 
    most 
    of 
    the 
    trees 
    are 
    now 
    gone. 

    Most 
    of 
    the 
    train
    s 
    are 
    gone 


    So 
    why 
    don't 
    we 
    go 
    back 
    to 
    the 
    wall 

    Start 
    keeping 
    the 
    whole 
    world 
    warm 

    We've 
    dug 
    and 
    we've 
    dir
    ted 

    We've 
    sprayed 
    and 
    we've 
    squir
    ted 

    And 
    it 
    all 
    floats 
    away 
    in 
    the 
    storm 

    My 
    life 
    is 
    just 
    a 
    flash 
    in 
    the 
    dark, 
    I 
    know 

    And 
    I'm 
    just 
    the 
    vic
    tim 
    of 
    fate 

    Why 
    was 
    I 
    born 
    in 
    this 
    beautiful 
    world? 

    Why 
    was 
    I 
    born 
    too 
    late, 

    to 
    walk 
    in 
    the 
    vir
    gin 
    bush
    land? 

    Put 
    damper 
    and 
    billy 
    on, 

    I 
    jump 
    in 
    my 
    truck 

    But 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    luck, 

    cos 
    most 
    of 
    the 
    trees 
    are 
    now 
    gone 

    Most 
    of 
    the 
    trees 
    are 
    now 
    gone

      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 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.
