    When I was a little kid,

    not very old,

    me and Susie at the top of the road,

    Am

    we used to run in the garden free,
    G

    playing games around the big tree.

    One afternoon, whilst we played,

    we was led to the big tree shade,

    and I showed her, she
    G

    She showed me lots of fun

    behind the big tree.

    Big tree, what do you know?

    Why do you spread your

    branches low?

    C

    Well, the big tree was her friend,
    G
    C

    and the big tree knew how it would end.

    Soft grass on a leafy bend,

    we touched tongues and

    giggled instead.

    I showed her, she showed me,

    but we got caught behind the big tree.

    It was a neighbor who complained,

    she told us both to be ashamed.

    I got cuffed, Susie cried,
    G

    but we couldn't
    C

    have done nothing if we tried.

    Big tree, why do you sigh?

    Big tree, raise your branches high.

    • 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.
