    Verse 1
    Stone 
    cutters 
    made 
    them 
    from 
    stones 

    Chosen 
    specially 
    for 
    you 
    and 

    Who 
    will 
    live 
    in- 
    side 

    The 
    mountaineers 
    gathered 
    timber 

    Piled 
    high 

    In 
    which 
    to 
    take 
    a
    long 

    Driving 
    many 
    miles, 
    knowing 
    they'd 
    get 
    here 

    Pre-chorus 1
    When 
    they 
    got 
    here, 
    all 
    exhausted 

    On 
    the 
    roof 
    leaks 
    they 
    got 
    started 

    And 
    now 
    when 
    the 
    rain 
    comes 

    We 
    can 
    be 
    thank
    ful 

    Chorus 1
    Ooh 
    ah 
    ooh 

    When 
    the 
    mountaineers 

    Saw 
    that 
    everything 
    fit 

    They 
    were 
    glad 
    and 
    so 
    they 
    took 
    off 

    Thought 
    we 
    were 
    due 
    for 

    change 
    or 
    two 

    Around 
    this 
    place 

    When 
    they 
    get 
    back 

    they're 
    all 
    mixed 
    up 
    with 
    no 
    one 
    to 
    stay 
    with 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    The 
    village 
    used 
    to 
    be 
    all 
    one 
    really 
    needs 

    Now 
    it's 
    filled 
    with 
    hundreds 
    and 
    hundreds 
    of 

    Chemicals 
    that 
    mostly 
    sur
    round 
    you 

    You 
    wish 
    to 
    flee 

    but 
    it's 
    not 
    like 
    you 

    So 
    listen 
    to 
    me, 
    lis
    ten 
    to 
    me 

    Oh, 
    and 
    when 
    the 
    morning 
    comes 

    We 
    will 
    step 
    outside 

    We 
    will 
    not 
    find 
    another 
    man 
    in 
    sight 

    We 
    like 
    the 
    newness, 
    the 
    new
    ness 
    of 
    all 

    That 
    has 
    grown 
    in 
    our 
    garden 

    soaking 
    for 
    so 
    long 

    Pre-chorus 2
    Whenever 
    was 
    child 

    wondered 
    what 
    if 
    my 
    name 

    Had 
    changed 
    into 
    something 

    more 
    productive 
    like 
    Roscoe 


    Been 
    born

      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

      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.
