    • Verse 1
    In 
    the blue 
    of the even

    ing 
    when 
    the sun 
    is 
    low 

    There's a 
    shadow 
    that creeps 

    across 
    my 
    cell 
    block 
    floor 

    And 
    it 
    comes 
    to 
    remind 
    me 

    what I'm 
    in here 
    for 

    Verse 2
    No, 
    I'm 
    not 
    admit
    tin' 
    that 

    I done 
    the crime 

    I'm 
    only 
    getting 
    down 
    to 
    doin' 
    time 

    The passin' 
    of day 
    is 
    no 
    concern 
    of 

    mine 

    Verse 3
    There's 
    a 
    guard 
    on 
    the second 
    shift 

    comes 
    on 
    at 
    three 

    And he's 
    always 
    about 
    a half 

    inch 
    off 
    of me 

    Like 
    he 
    needs 
    to 
    keep 
    remindin' 
    me 

    that I'm 
    not 
    free 

    Verse 4
    God 
    for
    give 
    him 
    'cause 

    he 
    doesn't 
    see 

    He's 
    no 
    less 
    a pris
    oner 

    'cause 
    he holds 
    a key 

    And 
    God 
    forbid 
    he 
    turn 
    his 
    back 
    on me 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    For 
    every 
    wall 
    you build 

    around 
    your fear 

    A 
    thousand 
    darker 
    things 

    are 
    born 
    in 
    here 

    There 
    fed 
    on 
    contempt 
    for 
    all 

    that 
    you hold 
    dear 

    Verse 6
    The 
    truth 
    is 
    it 
    doesn't 

    matter 
    what 
    you do 

    'Til 
    you 
    gaze 
    in 
    that 
    mirror 

    with 
    an eye 
    that's 
    true 

    And 
    ad
    mit 
    that 
    what 

    scares 
    you 
    is 
    the 
    me 
    in 
    you

      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.
