    Verse 1
    In 
    the 
    heat 
    of 
    the sum
    mer 

    When 
    the pavements 
    were 
    burning 

    The soul 
    of a city 
    was ravaged 

    in 
    the night 

    After 
    the city 
    sun 
    was 

    sinkin' 

    Verse 2

    Now 
    no 
    one knows 
    how 

    it started 

    Why 
    the windows 
    were 
    shattered 

    But 
    deep 
    in 
    the dark, 

    someone 
    set 
    the 
    spark 

    And 
    then 
    it no 
    longer 

    mattered. 

    Verse 3

    Down 
    the streets 
    they were 

    rumbling 

    All the tempers 
    were 
    ra
    gin' 

    Oh, 
    where, 
    oh, 

    where 
    are 
    the 
    white 
    silver 
    tongues 

    Who 
    forgot 
    to 
    listen 
    to 
    the warn
    ings? 

    Verse 4
    On 
    and On come the angry 

    No longer 
    following 
    reason 

    And all 
    the stores 
    were the target 

    now 

    Where just the 
    other 

    day they were buyin' 

    Verse 5
    Drunk 
    with 
    the memory 
    of 

    the ghetto 

    Drunk 
    with the 
    lure 
    of 
    the 
    looting 

    And the 
    memory 
    of 
    the uniforms 

    shoving 
    with 
    their 
    sticks 

    Asking, 
    ";Are you 
    looking 
    for 

    trouble?"; 

    Verse 6

    "No, 
    no, 
    no," 
    moaned 

    the may
    or. 

    "It's 
    not 
    the way 
    of 
    the order. 

    "Oh 
    stay 
    in your 
    homes, 

    please 
    leave 
    us 
    alone 

    "We'll 
    be glad 
    to 
    talk 
    in 

    the morn
    ing." 

    Verse 7

    "For shame, 

    for 
    shame," 
    wrote 
    the pa
    pers. 

    "Why 
    the hurry 
    to 
    your 
    hunger? 

    "Now 
    the 
    rubble's resting 

    on 
    your 
    broken 
    street

    "So 
    you 
    see 
    what 
    your 
    rage 

    has 
    unraveled." 

    Verse 8
    Baricades sadly were 
    risin' 

    Bricks were 
    heavily flyin' 

    And 
    the 
    loudspeaker 
    drowned 
    like 

    a whisperin' 
    sound 

    When compared 
    to the angered 
    emotions 

    And 
    when 
    the fury 
    Verse 9
    was 
    over

    And 
    the 
    Shame 
    was replacing 
    the 
    anger. 

    So 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong, 

    but we've 
    been down 
    so 
    long 

    And 
    we had 
    to make 
    some
    body 
    listen 


    In the 
    heat 
    of 
    the sum

    mer

      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.

      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.
