    old man 
    were he, 

    He 
    courted 
    the 

    Virgin 

    Mary, 
    and the 

    Queen 
    of 

    Galilee. 

    He courted 
    the 

    Virgin 

    Mary, 
    and 
    the 

    Queen of 

    Galilee. 

    Joseph 
    and 

    Mary, 
    out a 
    -walkin' 
    one 
    day, 

    Here is

    so 
    fair to 
    behold. 

    Here 
    is apples 
    and 
    cherries, 

    so 
    fair to 
    behold. 

    Mary 
    spoke 
    to 

    Joseph, 
    and to 

    Joseph said 
    she, 

    oh, go 
    and gather 
    me 
    some cherries, 

    for 
    I 
    am with 
    child. 

    Said, 
    go 
    and gather 
    me 
    some cherries, 

    for 
    I am 
    with 
    child. 

    Joseph 
    flew 
    in angry, 

    and in 
    angry 
    flew he. 

    Said, let 
    the father 
    of 
    the baby 

    gather 
    cherries 
    for 
    you. 

    Said, 
    let 
    the father 
    of 
    the baby 

    gather 
    cherries 
    for 
    you. 

    Then 
    up 
    spoke 

    Lord 

    Jesus 
    from 
    his 
    mother's 
    womb, 

    said, 
    bow low, 
    low, 
    cherry 
    tree, 

    bow low 
    down 
    to the ground. 

    Said

    low, 
    low 
    cherry 
    tree, 

    bow you 
    low down 
    to 
    the ground. 

    Then 
    the cherry 
    tree 
    bowed 
    low 
    down, 

    low 
    down 
    to 
    the ground. 

    And 

    Mary 
    gathered 
    cherries 
    while 

    Joseph 
    stood 
    around. 

    And 

    Mary

    Then

    on 
    his 
    right 
    knee 

    And 
    said, 

    Tell 
    me, 
    pretty 
    baby, 

    when your 
    birthday 
    will 
    be. 

    Said, 
    tell me, tell 
    me, 
    pretty 
    baby, 

    when your 
    birthday 
    will 
    be. 

    On 
    the sixth 
    day 
    of 

    January, 
    my 
    birthday 
    will 
    be, 

    when 
    the stars 
    an
    d 
    the element
    s doth 
    tremble 

    with 
    glee, 
    when 
    the stars 
    and 

    the elements 
    doth 
    tremble 
    with 
    glee.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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 🙂

      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.
