  • Verse 1
    The 
    head 
    of 
    a hunt 
    on 

    the wall 
    by 
    a painting 

    An upright 
    piano 
    stood 
    locked 
    by 
    the door 

    In 
    through 
    the 
    window 

    The light 
    was 
    fast 
    fading 

    While 
    split 
    my 
    whiskey 

    All 
    over 
    the 
    floor 

    Making 
    a mess 
    of 
    my 
    words 
    so 

    I was 
    trying 

    To 
    impress 
    the 
    Empress 
    with 

    My 
    wimpy tales 

    Fanning 
    her 
    face 
    from 
    cigar 
    smoke 

    And sighing 

    had 
    come 
    close 
    to 
    be 
    miles 

    From 
    her 
    trail 

    Verse 2

    She 
    was 
    the 
    jewel 
    that 

    Sparkled 
    in 
    darkness 

    She 
    was 
    the 
    love 

    Of 
    everyone's 
    life 

    She 
    was 
    the catch 
    at 

    Everyone's 
    parties 

    She 
    was 
    the one 
    with 
    a tongue 

    Like 
    a knife 

    Verse 3

    Her 
    bosoms 
    curved 
    perfectly 

    Lit 
    by 
    the fire 

    My 
    mind 
    launched 
    away 

    In 
    a sea 
    of 
    its 
    own 

    Her 
    grace 
    and 
    her 
    tightness 

    had 
    to 
    admire 

    Through 
    a whore's 
    breath 
    of stories 

    happily 
    told 


    Verse 4
    Trespassing 
    my 
    hand 

    Fell 
    into 
    hot 
    water 

    She 
    shot 
    like 
    bullet 

    Right 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    chair 

    She 
    led 
    me 
    away 
    an

    Was 
    then 
    slaughtered 

    By the 
    warmth 
    of 
    her 
    body 

    And 
    her 
    love 
    an
    d care 

    Verse 5

    Her 
    tongue 
    cut 
    away 

    And 
    the wounds 
    slowly 
    opened 

    I lay 
    on 
    the sails 
    of 
    the 

    Ship 
    of 
    romance 

    Drunk 
    as 
    could 
    be 
    and 

    Broker 
    than 
    broken 
    and 

    The 
    head 
    of 
    my 
    hunt 

    Was 
    there 
    in my 




    hand

    • 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.
