    Verse 1
    'Twas 
    in 
    another 
    lifetime, 

    one 
    of 
    toil 
    and 
    blood 

    When 
    blackness 
    was 
    virtue 

    the 
    road 
    was 
    full 
    of 
    mud 

    came 
    in 
    from 
    the 
    wilderness, 

    creature 
    void 
    of 
    form 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 2
    And 
    if 
    pass 
    this 
    way 
    a
    gain, 

    you 
    can 
    rest 
    as
    sured 

    I'll 
    always 
    do 
    my 
    best 
    for 
    her, 

    on 
    that 
    give 
    my 
    word 

    In 
    world 
    of 
    steel-eyed 
    death, 

    and 
    men 
    who 
    are 
    fighting 
    to 
    be 
    warm 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 

    Verse 3
    Not 
    word 
    was 
    spoke 
    between 
    us, 

    there 
    was 
    little 
    risk 
    involved 

    Everything 
    up 
    to 
    that 
    point 

    had 
    been 
    left 
    unresolved 

    Try 
    imagin
    ing 
    place 

    where 
    it's 
    always 
    safe 
    and 
    warm 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shel
    ter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 4
    was 
    burned 
    out 
    from 
    ex
    haustion, 

    buried 
    in 
    the 
    hail 

    Poisoned 
    in 
    the 
    bushes 

    an' 
    blown 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    trail 

    Hunted 
    like 
    crocodile, 

    rav
    aged 
    in 
    the 
    corn 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 5
    Suddenly 
    turned 
    around 

    and 
    she 
    was 
    standin' 
    there 

    With 
    silver 
    bracelets 
    on 
    her 
    wrists 

    and 
    flow
    ers 
    in 
    her 
    hair 

    She 
    walked 
    up 
    to 
    me 
    so 
    gracefully 

    and 
    took 
    my 
    crown 
    of 
    thorns 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 6
    Now 
    there's 
    wall 
    between 
    us, 

    somethin' 
    there's 
    been 
    lost 

    took 
    too 
    much 
    for 
    grant
    ed, 

    got 
    my 
    signals 
    crossed 

    Just 
    to 
    think 
    that 
    it 
    all 
    began 

    on 
    an 
    un
    eventfil 
    morn 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 7
    Well, 
    the 
    deputy 
    walks 
    on 
    hard 
    nails 

    and 
    the 
    preacher 
    rides 
    mount 

    But 
    nothing 
    really 
    matters 
    much, 

    it's 
    doom 
    alone 
    that 
    counts 

    And 
    the 
    one-eyed 
    under
    taker, 

    he 
    blows 
    futile 
    horn 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shel
    ter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 8
    I've 
    heard 
    newborn 
    babies 
    wailin' 

    like 
    mournin' 
    dove 

    And 
    old 
    men 
    with 
    broken 
    teeth 

    strand
    ed 
    without 
    love 

    Do 
    understand 
    your 
    question, 
    man, 

    is 
    it 
    hopeless 
    and 
    forlorn 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 9
    In 
    little 
    hilltop 
    vil
    lage, 

    they 
    gambled 
    for 
    my 
    clothes 

    bargained 
    for 
    sal
    vation 
    and 
    she 

    gave 
    me 
    lethal 
    dose 

    offered 
    up 
    my 
    in
    nocence 

    got 
    repaid 
    with 
    scorn 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm 


    Verse 10
    Well, 
    I'm 
    livin' 
    in 
    foreign 
    country 

    but 
    I'm 
    bound 
    to 
    cross 
    the 
    line 

    Beauty 
    walks 
    razor's 
    edge, 

    some
    day 
    I'll 
    make 
    it 
    mine 

    If 
    could 
    only 
    turn 
    back 
    the 
    clock 
    to 
    when 

    God 
    and 
    her 
    were 
    born 

    Come 
    in, 
    she 
    said 

    I'll 
    give 
    ya 
    shelter 
    from 
    the 

    storm

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
