    Verse 1
    Of

    gull,

    forest 
    clouds 

    The

    an

    With his 
    candle 
    lit 
    in

    Though 
    its 
    glow 
    is waxed 
    in 
    black 

    All

    of 
    Eden 

    Verse 3
    The 
    savage 
    soldier 
    sticks 
    his head 
    in 
    sand 

    And 
    then 
    com
    plains 

    Unto 
    the 
    shoeless 
    hunter 

    who's 
    gone 
    deaf 

    But 
    still 
    remain
    s 

    Verse 4
    Upon 
    the beach 
    where 
    hound

    the gates 
    of 
    Eden 

    Verse 5

    With a 
    time-rusted 
    compass

    blade 

    Alladin and 
    his 
    lamp 

    Sits 
    with Utopian

    Side 
    saddle 
    on 
    the 
    golden 
    calf 

    Verse 6
    On their 
    promises 
    of paradise 

    You 
    will not 
    hear 
    a 
    laugh 

    All 
    except 
    in
    side 
    the 
    gates 
    of 
    Eden 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 7
    Relationships 
    of 
    a 
    ownership 

    They 
    whisper 
    in 
    the 
    wings 

    To 
    those 
    condemned 
    ac
    cordingly 

    To 
    wait 
    for suc
    ceeding 
    kings 

    Verse 8
    And I 
    try 
    to 
    harmon
    ize 
    with 
    songs 

    The 
    lonesome 
    spar
    row 
    sings 

    There 
    are no 
    kings 
    in
    side 

    the 
    gates 
    of 
    Eden 

    Verse 9
    The 
    motorcycle 
    black 
    Madonna 

    A 
    two-wheeled 
    gypsy 
    gypsy 
    queen 

    And her 
    silver-studded 

    phantom 
    phantom 
    cause 

    The 
    gray flannel 
    dwarf 
    to 
    scream 

    Verse 10
    As he 
    weeps 
    to 
    wicked 

    bird
    s 
    of prey 

    Who 
    pick up 
    on 
    his 
    bread 

    crumb 
    sins 

    And there 
    are no 
    sins 
    in

    side 
    the gates 
    of 
    Eden 

    Verse 11
    At 
    dawn 
    my 
    lover 
    comes 
    to me 

    And 
    tells 
    me 
    of 
    her 
    dreams 

    With 
    no attempts 
    to shovel 

    the glimpse 

    Into the 
    ditch 
    of what 
    each 
    one 
    means 

    Verse 12
    At 
    times 
    I think 
    there 
    are 
    no words 

    But 
    these 
    to tell 
    what's 
    true 

    And there 
    are no 
    truths 
    out
    side 
    the gates 
    of 
    Eden

      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 🙂

      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.
