  • Verse 1
    This 
    is a 
    story, 
    as 
    remember 
    it, 

    of 
    my 
    first 
    seeing 
    Haley's 
    Comet, 

    or 
    my seeing 
    Haley's 
    Comet. 

    This 
    was 
    in 
    Lexington, 
    Kentucky, 

    and 
    was 
    living 
    at 
    the Transylvania 
    Inn, 

    the 
    place 
    I was 
    born. 

    My 
    mother 
    was 
    operating 
    that 
    inn. 

    My 
    father 
    was 
    horse 
    trainer. 

    It 
    must 
    have been 
    in 
    the 
    light 
    spring 

    or 
    early 
    summer. 

    My 
    mother 
    came 
    to 
    me 

    and 
    said, 

    let's 
    go 
    upstairs 
    on 
    the 
    veranda. 

    She 
    said, 
    want 
    you to 

    see 
    Haley's 
    Comet. 

    And 
    to 
    me 
    it 
    was 
    only 
    another 

    star. 

    So 
    every 
    night 
    went 
    up 
    and 
    watched. 

    And 
    as 
    it 
    got 
    closer, 

    what 
    thought 
    was 
    star, 

    started 
    to 
    take 
    on 
    the 

    look 
    of 
    ball 
    of 
    fire 

    with 
    a tail 
    behind 
    it. 

    Ken
    tucky 
    Light
    9, 

    will 
    it 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky? 

    Kentucky 
    Light
    9, 

    stranger 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    Kentucky 
    Light
    9, 

    will 
    it 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky? 

    Kentucky 
    Light
    9, 

    stranger 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    And 
    as 
    it came 
    around, 

    it 
    got 
    bigger 
    and 
    bigger, 

    and 
    lower 
    and 
    lower, 

    until 
    finally 
    one 
    night, 

    it 
    was over 
    the 
    tattersall's 
    barn. 

    It 
    looked 
    like 
    that 
    it was 
    just 

    hovering 
    over 
    that 
    barn 

    and 
    it 
    might 
    fall 
    at 

    any 
    minute. 

    The 
    horses 
    in 
    the 
    barn 
    were 
    reppin'. 

    They 
    were 
    thrash

    ing 
    around 
    in 
    the 
    stalls. 

    They 
    were nickering. 

    It 
    was 
    nicker 
    of 
    fear. 

    My 
    father 
    and 
    several 
    other 
    men 

    went 
    to the 
    barn 

    to 
    try to 
    quiet 
    the 
    horses. 

    And 
    I went 
    to 
    my 
    mother 

    an
    said, 
    Mother, 
    I'm 
    afraid. 

    She 
    says, 
    so 
    am 
    I. 

    said, 
    what 
    can I 
    do? 

    She 
    said, 
    well, 

    ask 
    God 
    to 
    spare 
    us. 

    It 
    was 
    so 
    bright 

    that 
    there was 

    dark 
    shadow 

    un
    der 
    the 
    eaves 
    of 
    the barn. 

    don't 
    think 
    can 
    describe 
    that 
    eer
    ie 
    light. 

    It 
    wasn't 
    pure 
    white, 

    it 
    wasn't 
    red, 

    it 
    just 
    seemed 
    like 
    light 

    that 
    reached 
    your 
    very 
    soul. 

    Kentuck
    light
    shine, 

    will 
    it 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky? 

    Kentucky 
    light
    shine, 

    stranger 
    in 
    the 
    sky. 

    Kentuck
    Light
    shine, 

    will 
    it 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky? 

    Kentucky 
    Light
    shine, 

    stranger 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    Kentucky 
    Light
    shine, 

    will 
    it 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky? 

    Kentuck
    Light
    shine, 

    stranger 
    in 
    the 
    sky

      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.
