Verse 1
G

After a while,

we took in the clothes

Nobody said very much

Just some wild shirts,

couple pairs of pants,

which nobody really wanted to touch
C

Mama come in and picked up a book,

and Papa asked her what it was
Gm

Now someone else asked,
G

what do you get?
Gm

And Papa said, well, just because
D

Then they started to take

back their clothes

And hang them on the line
Gm
G

It was January the 30th

And everybody was feeling fine

The next day, everybody got up
C
G

Seeing if the clothes were dry

The dogs were barking,

the neighbor passed

And Mama, of course, she said,
C

Hi, have you heard the news?

He said with a grin,

the vice president's gone mad
G

Where? When?

Last night

Hmm, say that's too bad
D

Well, there's nothing we can do about it,

said the neighbor

It's just something we're

gonna have to forget
G

Yes, I guess so, said Mom

Then she asked me if the

clothes were still wet

I reached up and touched my shirt

And the neighbor said,

are those clothes yours?

I said, some of them, not all of them
Gm

He said, you always help out
G

around here with the chores
C

I said, sometimes, not all the time

Well then my neighbor, he blew his nose
G

Just as Pa yells, outside

Mama wants you to come

back in the house
D

and bring them clothes

I just do as I'm told

So I did it,
G

of course I went back into the house

And Mama, Mama made me leave

And then I shut all the doors you

  • 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.
