    Verse 1
    And you 
    say 
    that 

    the battle 
    is 
    over

    And you say that 
    the war 
    is all 
    done 

    Go tell 
    it 
    to those 
    with 

    the wind 
    in their 
    nose 

    Who 
    run 
    from 
    the sound 
    of 
    the gun

    Verse 2
    And 
    write 
    it on the 
    sides 
    of 

    the great 
    whaling 
    ships 

    Or on ice 
    floes 
    where 

    conscience 
    is 
    tossed 

    With the 
    wild 
    in 
    their 
    eyes 
    it 

    is 
    they 
    who must 
    die 

    And 
    it's 
    we 
    who must 

    measure 
    the loss 

    Verse 3

    And you 
    say 
    that the 
    battle 
    is over

    And 
    finally 
    the 
    world 
    is at 
    peace 

    You 
    mean 
    no one 
    is 
    dying 
    and 

    mothers 
    don't 
    weep 

    Or it's 
    not 
    in 
    the papers 
    at least 

    Verse 4
    There are 
    those 
    who would 
    deal 

    in the 
    dark
    ness 
    of 
    life 

    There are 
    those 
    who 

    would tear 
    down 
    the 
    sun 

    And 
    most 
    men 
    are ruthless 

    but some 
    will still 
    weep 

    When the 
    gifts 
    we 
    were 
    given 
    are 
    gone 

    Verse 5
    Now 
    the 
    blame 
    cannot 

    fall on the 
    head
    s of a 
    few 

    It's become 
    such 
    a part 
    of the 
    race 

    It's 
    eternally 
    tragic 
    that 

    which is 
    magic 

    Be killed 
    at the 
    end 
    of 
    the glorious 

    chase 

    From young 
    seals 
    to 
    Verse 6
    great 
    whales 

    from 
    waters 
    to 
    wood 

    They will 
    fall 
    just 
    like 
    weeds 

    in the 
    wind 

    With fur 
    coats 
    and 
    perfumes 

    and 
    trophies 
    on walls 

    What 
    a hell 
    of 
    a race 
    to call 
    men 

    Verse 7

    And you 
    say 
    that 
    the battle 
    is over 

    And 
    you say that the 
    war 
    is all 
    done 

    Go 
    tell 
    it to those 
    with the 

    wind 
    in their 
    nose 

    Who 
    run 
    from 
    the sound 
    of 
    the gun

    And 
    write 
    it on the 
    sides 
    Verse 8
    of 

    the great 
    whaling 
    ships 

    Or on ice 
    floes 
    where 
    conscience 

    is 
    tossed 

    With the wild 
    in their 
    eyes 

    it is 
    they 
    who must 
    die 

    And 
    we 
    who must 
    measure 
    the loss 

    With the 
    wild 
    in 
    their 
    eyes 

    it is 
    they 
    who must 
    die 

    And 
    we 
    who 
    will 
    measure 
    the cost

    • 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.
