    • Verse 1
    Daddy 
    was 
    a 
    skywriter 

    Momma 
    was a 
    rock
    - stemmed 
    rose 

    Papa 
    shaped 
    this 
    place 
    with 

    grease 
    and 
    grace 

    Momma 
    loved 
    me 
    I 
    been 
    told 
    it 

    shows 




    Tried 
    and 
    true 
    as 
    the col
    or 
    of 
    his col
    lar 

    His 
    eyes 
    grew 
    bluer 
    as 
    he 

    searched 
    for 
    word
    s 

    But 
    words 
    are 
    crumbs 
    and 

    the lesson 
    of 
    a father 

    Is 
    how 
    to 
    hack 
    your 
    way 
    through 

    the 
    hunger 
    and 
    the birds 

    Hopefully 
    they're right 
    about 

    the pen 
    being 
    mightier 

    That 
    any 
    weapon 
    any
    one'll wield 

    But 
    where 
    they 
    mark 
    off 
    men 

    with 
    the cross 
    of 
    a pen 

    I'll 
    carry 
    my 
    old 
    man's 
    steel 

    Daddy 
    was 
    a 

    skywriter... 

    She 



    said 
    build 

    your 
    house 
    on 
    the 
    solid 
    rock 
    of 
    Jesus 

    Fool 
    to choose 
    the sand 
    of sin 

    I 
    run 
    out 
    and 
    sign 
    myself 
    a long 
    lease 

    On 
    a 
    little 
    place 
    made 
    of 
    rain 
    and 
    wind 

    But 
    she 
    learned 
    me 
    pretty 
    good 
    about 

    the 
    CouldaWouldaShoulda 

    And 
    the 
    crip
    plin weight 
    of 
    a crutch 

    She 
    wasn't 
    dead 
    on 

    about 
    every 
    little 
    thing 

    But 
    she 
    weren't 
    dead 

    wrong 
    about 
    much 

    Daddy 
    was 







    a skywriter

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
