    Verse 1
    My 
    name 
    is 

    Joseph, 
    too 
    come 
    from 

    Bethle
    hem 

    But 
    I have 
    lived 
    here all 
    my life, 

    not 
    just 
    for 
    the night. 

    My boy 
    was 
    two 
    years old 
    when 

    Herod 
    gave 
    out his 
    decree. 

    And 
    the 
    soldiers 
    came 
    to 
    our street 

    And 
    left us 
    all 
    cry
    in' on 
    our knees 

    The 
    king said 
    all 
    the boys 
    must 
    die 

    Trouble 
    dwelled 
    in his 

    wicked heart 

    Ain't 
    hard 
    that a baby 
    was 
    born 

    Won't 
    come 
    to take 
    away the 
    king's 

    throne 


    But 
    that boy 
    escaped 
    the 
    race 

    His 
    father 
    took him 
    away 

    couldn't 
    do 
    the same 

    for 
    my 
    little 
    boy 

    When 
    the 
    paratroopers 
    came 

    The 
    day 
    he'd 
    thirty 
    -three years 
    old 

    He'd 
    have a 
    wife 
    an
    d some 
    kids 

    missed 
    out on 
    so 
    much 

    Because 
    of one man's 
    cruel 
    ways 

    There 
    are people 
    of 
    power 
    everywhere 

    Blinded 
    by greed 
    and 
    hate 

    heard 
    they 
    finally 
    got the 
    other boy 
    knew they'd 

    never forget 
    him 


    saw him 
    hung 
    on a 
    tree 
    remembered my 

    little boy's 
    face 

    He 
    said, 
    he'll 
    die for 
    love 

    He 
    said, 
    he'll 
    bring 
    grace 

    But 
    these 
    men 
    don't 
    know 
    love 

    An
    I'm 
    too 
    bitty to 

    wish them 
    grace 

    scream 
    my 
    curses 
    to the 
    sky I 
    will 

    never 
    forget 
    that face 

    And 
    walked 
    home from 
    that place, 

    to 
    my cold 
    and lonely home 

    An
    burned 
    my clothing 
    in a pile 

    And 
    placed 
    my bare 
    feet 

    on 
    the road

    • 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

      Rose the Black Cat

      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

      Tuliketsune

      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 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      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!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      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.

      Caleb Schafli

      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.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
