The Vandals chords by

Verse 1
Eb

The wind is so hot an
Bb
Eb

d it blows with such fury

The great pounding waves

of the sea sound like thunder

Not the sea, not the wind,

but the roar of the silence

The surge of the blood in your ears

The night is so dark

and the darkness so empty

No shadow, no shape,

no sense of horizon

Not the night, not the dark,

but the harsh stony ridges

The desert where everything dies

Is nobody left,

tell me, where has the world gone?

The people, the forests,

the great teeming cities.

No people, no houses, no trees and no rivers,

only this cinder, this slag.

Then what of our hopes, all our dreams,

all our strivings?

The dawn of new days

with their promise of plenty.

No dreams and no strivings,

no past and no future, all gone.

They have wiped the slate clean.

Oh father, dear father,

you said that you loved me.

Why did you give them our

world for a plaything?

They came with clean hands and they talked so politely

while arranging the death of the world.

They smiled and conspired and we

smiled and we let them.

Cocooned in the shadows of

other man's dreaming.

We gazed at the flickering

screens in the half -light

And allowed them to murder the world.

  • 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.
