  • Verse 1
    Played 
    a wedding 
    for 
    the money 
    and 
    I wish I 

    could have 
    told 
    the bride 
    and 
    groom 

    Just 
    what I 
    think 
    of marriage, 

    what's 
    in store 
    after 
    the 
    honeymoon. 

    was 
    rumbling 
    through 
    the verses 
    about 

    how 
    men and 
    women 
    ought 
    to 
    live 
    apart, 

    How 
    a promise 
    never 
    made 
    could not 
    be 
    broken 

    and 
    would never 
    break 
    a heart. 

    Verse 2

    Suddenly 
    from 
    out 
    of nowhere 
    this 
    little 

    girl 
    came 
    spinning 
    across 
    the floor 

    Her 
    crinolines 
    were 
    billowing 
    beneath 

    the skirt 
    of 
    calico 
    she 
    wore. 

    As her 
    joy 
    fell 
    on 
    the 
    honored 
    guests 
    each 

    one 
    of them 
    was 
    drawn 
    into 
    her 
    dream 

    And 
    they 
    laughed 
    and 
    stamped 
    and 
    clapped 
    their hands 
    and hollered 
    at her, 

    dance 
    little 
    jean! 

    Verse 3

    They said: 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 
    this 
    day 
    is 
    for you, 

    Two 
    people 
    that 
    you love 
    stood 

    up 
    to 
    say 
    'i 
    do.' 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 

    the prayer 
    that 
    you had 
    was answered 
    today- 

    Your momma's 
    marrying 
    your 
    dad. 

    Verse 4
    Well 
    this cynic's 
    heart 
    just 
    melted 
    as 

    I figured 
    what this 
    get 
    together 
    meant 

    And 
    how 
    it ended 
    years 
    of 
    tears 
    and sad 

    confusions 
    that 
    the 
    little 
    girl 
    had spent. 

    They 
    told 
    the band 
    to pack 
    it up 
    about 

    the time 
    the 
    couple 
    cut 
    the cake 

    But we 
    stayed 
    and we 
    played 
    all 
    night 
    long 
    for 
    love 

    and laughs 
    and little 
    jeanie's 
    sake 

    Verse 5

    We played: 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 
    this 
    day 
    is 
    for you, 

    Two 
    people 
    that 
    you love 
    stood 

    up 
    to say 
    'i 
    do.' 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 

    the prayer 
    that 
    you had 
    was 
    answered 
    today- 

    Your 
    momma's 
    marrying 
    your 
    dad. 

    Verse 6
    We 
    sang: 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 
    this 
    day 
    is 
    for you, 

    Two 
    people 
    that 
    you love 
    stood 

    up 
    to 
    say 
    'i 
    do.' 

    Dance 
    little 
    jean, 

    the prayer 
    that 
    you had 
    was answered 
    today- 

    Your 
    momma's 
    marrying 
    your 
    dad.

    • 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.
