    What 
    happened 
    to 
    my 
    Verse 1
    brother 

    The 
    life 
    in 
    his eyes? 

    Did 
    something 
    shake 
    his 
    brain 

    On 
    that 
    long 
    bus 
    ride? 

    What 
    happened 
    to 
    my 
    Verse 2
    brother? 

    Swear 
    he 
    had 
    my 
    mother's 

    face 

    What I'd 
    give 
    to find 
    him 

    Verse 3
    Hold 
    him 
    in 
    a long 
    embrace 

    What 
    happened 
    to 
    his 
    body? 

    Why's 
    he 
    look 
    so 
    white 
    and 
    empty? 

    When 
    he shows 
    up 
    at 
    my 
    door 

    Just 
    don't 
    know 
    him 

    Used 
    to sit 
    and talk 
    for days 
    Verse 4

    Now 
    he 
    lays 
    there 
    in 
    a haze 

    'Til some 
    tiny 
    little 
    nothin' 

    Triggers 
    psychotic 
    erup
    tion 

    What 
    happens 
    when 
    he's 
    Verse 5
    sleepin'? 

    Why's 
    he wake 
    up cryin' 

    and screamin'? 

    Walkin' 
    into 
    walls 
    and 
    runnin' 

    Like 
    hungry 
    animals 
    are com
    in' 

    To gnaw 
    his 
    bones, 
    lap 
    up 
    his 
    Verse 6
    blood 

    From 
    a ditch 
    bank 
    in 
    the mud 

    Leave 
    his scarecrow 
    in 
    the sticks 

    For 
    the black 
    birds 

    Verse 7

    And 
    the blue 
    jays 
    to pick 

    For 
    the nature 
    to 
    encroach 

    For 
    the wanderers 
    to 
    approach 

    For 
    the snow 
    and 
    autumn 
    leaves 

    To 
    be 
    buried 
    underneath 

    For 
    the rivers 
    to rise 

    Wash 
    him 
    out 
    into 
    the tides 

    What 
    happened 
    to 
    my 
    Verse 8
    brother? 

    He used 
    to 
    have 
    his 
    pick 
    of lovers 

    A 
    whole 
    array 
    of pretty 
    ones 

    My 
    brother 
    was 
    a sil
    ver 
    Sun 

    Verse 9
    A heavyweight, 
    a head 
    bull 

    A 
    frontman and 
    waterfall 

    A 
    stoic 
    prince, 
    not 
    the second 

    But 
    the first 
    violin 

    So 
    for, 
    Verse 10

    up 
    in 
    his 
    room 

    Gone 
    so
    lo 

    Verse 11

    He used 
    to dazzle 
    us 

    Leave 
    a trail 
    of 
    magic 
    dust 

    At 
    the 
    end 
    of 
    every 
    joke 

    We 
    would 
    laugh 
    so 
    hard, 
    we'd 
    choke 

    He 
    could turn 
    over 
    a stone 
    Verse 12

    Find 
    an end
    less 
    well 
    of poems 

    Used 
    to bring 
    the sweetest 
    gifts 

    We 
    went 
    to 
    him 
    to 
    be 
    up
    lifted 

    Inspira
    tion, 
    friendship 
    Verse 13

      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.
