    Oh 
    me 
    (oh my) why 
    can't 
    deny 

    that Wise 
    and the 
    teachers 
    were 
    lost 

    But 
    that 
    was then 
    and this 
    is 
    now

    one say 
    false 
    is 

    what the

    And 
    Wise's 
    life 
    is just 
    begun 

    And my desires 
    to have 
    some 
    fun

    comprehension 

    Cause 
    all 
    them wants 
    to 
    see 
    is 

    violence 
    and 
    negat
    ivity 

    But the prob
    lem 
    is lack 
    of unity 

    Black 
    is black 
    regard
    less 
    to what 

    state 
    your 
    from 

    You're wrong, 

    and you're 
    blind 
    deaf and 
    dumb 

    Why 
    can't 
    we 
    say 
    'to 
    hell 
    with the 

    red 
    white and 
    blue'? 

    The green black 
    and 
    red's 

    coming 
    through

    that

      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 🙂

      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.

      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.
