Silver gray hair,

neatly combed in place
Em
D
Ebdim

There were four generations
C#

of love on her face
F#m
Em
D
A

She was so wise, no surprise,

past her eyes,

Gsus4

she had seen it all.
G
A

I was a child, oh,
G
F#m

about three or four.

Bm
G
Esus4

would ever turn me away, no, no
E
A
D

I'd say, how can I be sure

what is right or wrong?
G
Gsus4
C

And why does what I want

always take so long?

Please tell me where does God live
Bb
Dsus4
D

and why won't he talk to me?
Esus4
Em
A

I'd say grandma what is love,

what is life about,

I want to know the answers

A
Cdim

But tonight she was slightly remarkably different
G

somehow
G

Slowly she'd writhe,
G
F#m

looking half asleep

Grandma yonder she stretched,

F#m

then she started to speak
Em
D
A

What she told me would mold
Cdim

me and hold me
D
G

Together it's time
D
Esus4

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
E
A

She said all the things you ask
D

you will know someday
G

But you have got to live in a patient way

God put us here by faith

and by faith there'll be bet

Heaven sent angels down

and gave Grandma her wings

In the days

And al though I'm all grown up

Getting bumped and bruised

When night gets in my way

Oh, Grandma
Em

Do you see me now, lady?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

She used to sit me on her knee,

she used to call my name,

she used to tell me stories.

My grandma took me everywhere,

well, well, well, well, well, well, grandma.

  • 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.
