    • Verse 1
    Why 
    can't 
    we speak 

    another 
    language 

    One 
    we 
    all 
    agree 
    on 

    When 
    men 
    look 
    outside, 

    they 
    see 
    houses 

    Instead 
    of the fields 
    they 
    grew 
    from 

    We 
    are 
    constantly 
    uprooted 
    from 
    them 

    Making 
    us 
    tire
    some 
    (and fearful) 

    Can you 
    get up 
    right 
    now 

    Endeavor 
    to free 
    fall? 

    You 
    can 
    Verse 2
    fall 
    if 
    you want 
    to 

    It's 
    just 
    a matter 
    of how 
    far 

    You've 
    treasured 
    our 
    hometown 

    But 
    you've forgotten 
    where 
    you 
    are 

    And 
    it 
    will stay 
    with 
    you 
    until 

    your 
    mind's 
    been 
    found 

    And 
    it has 
    been 
    found 

    wondering 
    around 

    Verse 3
    With that 
    skip
    ping 
    rope, 
    the trampoline 

    The 
    crafty 
    smoke 
    that 
    made 
    us choke 

    But 
    we did
    n't 
    give 
    up 
    hope 

    It's 
    just 
    the sim
    ple 
    ways 
    of 
    getting 
    paid 

    The 
    carelessness 
    of running 
    away 

    I 
    wish 
    I stayed 

    I 
    wish 
    I 
    stayed 

    Verse 4
    Patterns 
    all 
    arranged 
    in 
    my background 

    Pillars 
    and posts 
    keeping 
    this 

    coun
    try 
    on form 

    Letters 
    were 
    all sent 

    With no 
    addresses 
    so 
    that people 

    can't 
    dis
    cover 

    That 
    we're 
    always 
    under 
    cover 

    Why 
    do 
    I 
    always 
    draw 
    triangles? 

    Instead 
    of words 
    this 
    paper 

    deserves 

    I don't own 
    my clothes 
    but 
    I own 
    my mind 

    Verse 5
    And it's 
    not 
    what you've lost 


    but 
    it's what 
    you find 

    I 
    don't 
    own 
    my 
    clothes 

    but 
    I 
    own 
    my 
    mind 

    And 
    it's 
    not 
    what 
    you've 

    lost 
    but 
    it's 
    what 
    you find 

    With that 
    skipping 
    rope, 
    the 
    Verse 6
    trampoline 

    The 
    crafty 
    smoke 
    that 
    made 
    us 
    choke 

    But 
    we 
    didn't 
    give 
    up 
    hope 

    It's 
    just 
    the 
    simple 
    ways 
    of 
    getting 
    paid 

    The 
    carelessness 
    of running 
    away 

    I 
    wish 
    I stayed 

    I 
    wish 
    I 
    stayed 

    Verse 7

    You 
    can fall 
    if 
    you want 
    to! 

    It's 
    just 
    a 
    matter of 
    how 
    far 

    You've 
    treasured 
    our 
    hometown 

    But 
    you've forgotten 
    where 
    you 
    are 

    And

      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 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.
