  • Chorus 1
    Hold 
    my 
    hand 

    Ooh, 
    baby, 
    it's 
    long 
    way 
    down 

    to 
    the 
    bottom 
    of 
    the 
    river 

    Hold 
    my 
    hand 

    Ooh, 
    baby, 
    it's 
    long 
    way 
    down, 

    Verse 1
    long 
    way 
    down 

    If 
    you 
    get 
    sleep 
    or 
    if 
    you 
    get 
    none 

    (The 
    cock's 
    gonna 
    call 
    in 
    the 
    morning, 
    baby) 

    And 
    check 
    the 
    cupboard 
    for 
    your 
    daddy's 
    gun 

    (Red 
    sun 
    rises 
    like 
    an 
    early 
    warning) 

    The 
    Lord's 
    gonna 
    come 
    for 
    your 
    first 
    born 
    son 

    (His 
    hair's 
    on 
    fire 
    and 
    his 
    heart 
    is 
    burning) 

    So 
    go 
    to 
    the 
    river 
    where 
    the 
    water 
    runs 

    (Wash 
    him 
    deep 
    where 
    the 
    tides 
    are 
    turning) 

    And 
    if 
    you 
    fall 

    And 
    if 
    you 
    fall 

    Chorus 2
    Hold 
    my 
    hand 

    Ooh, 
    baby, 
    it's 
    long 
    way 
    down 

    to 
    the 
    bottom 
    of 
    the 
    river 

    Hold 
    my 
    hand 

    Ooh, 
    baby, 
    it's 
    long 
    way 
    down, 

    long 
    way 
    down 

    Verse 2
    The 
    wolves 
    will 
    chase 
    you 

    by 
    the 
    pale 
    moonlight 

    (Drunk 
    and 
    driven 
    by 
    devil's 
    hunger) 

    Drive 
    your 
    son 
    like 
    railroad 
    spike 

    (Into 
    the 
    water, 
    let 
    it 
    pull 
    him 
    under) 

    Don't 
    you 
    lift 
    him, 
    let 
    him 
    drown 
    alive 

    (The 
    good 
    Lord 
    speaks 
    like 
    rolling 
    thunder) 

    Let 
    that 
    fever 
    make 
    the 
    water 
    rise 

    (And 
    let 
    the 
    river 
    run 
    dry) 

    Chorus 3
    And 
    said 

    Hold 
    my 
    hand 

    Ooh, 
    baby, 
    it's 
    long 
    way

    long 
    way 

    Hold

    hand, 
    ooh, 
    baby 

    Interlude 1

    • 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.
