    Verse 1
    Daniel, 

    Daniel 
    and 
    the sacred 
    harp 

    Dancing 
    through 
    the 
    clover 

    Daniel, 
    Daniel 
    would 
    you 
    mind 

    If 
    look 
    it 
    over 

    Verse 2

    heard 
    of 
    this 
    famous 
    harp 
    years 
    ago 

    Back 
    in 
    my 
    home 
    town 

    But I 
    sure 
    never 
    thought 
    old 

    Daniel'd be 
    the one 

    To 
    come 
    and 
    bring 
    it 
    around 

    Verse 3

    Tell 
    me 
    Daniel 
    how 
    the 
    harp 

    came 
    into 
    your 
    posses
    sion 

    Are 
    you 
    one 
    of 
    the 
    chosen 
    few 

    Who 
    will 
    march 
    in 
    the 
    the 
    pro
    cession 

    Verse 4

    And 
    Daniel 
    said 

    The sacred 
    harp 
    was 
    handed 
    down, 

    from 
    father 
    unto 
    son 

    And 
    me 
    not 
    being 
    re
    lated, 

    could 
    nev
    er 
    be 
    the one 

    So 
    I saved 
    up 
    all 
    my 
    sil
    ver 

    and 
    took 
    it 
    to 
    man 

    Who 
    said 
    he 
    could 
    deliv
    er 
    the 

    harp 
    straight 
    into 
    my 
    hand 

    Verse 5

    Three 
    years 
    waited 
    pa
    tiently 

    'Til 
    he re
    turned 
    with 
    the 
    harp 

    from 
    the sea 
    of 
    Galilee 

    He 
    said 
    there 
    is 
    one 
    more 

    thing 
    must 
    ask 

    But 
    not 
    of 
    personal 
    greed 

    But 
    wouldn't 
    listen, 

    just 
    grabbed 
    the 
    harp 

    And said, 
    "take 
    what 
    you 
    may 

    Interlude 1
    need" 



    Verse 6
    Now 
    Daniel 
    looked 
    quite 
    sat
    isfied 

    And the 
    harp 
    it 
    seemed 
    to 
    glow 

    But the 
    price 
    that 
    Daniel 
    had 
    really 
    paid 

    He 
    did 
    not 
    even 
    know 

    Back 
    to 
    his 
    brother, 

    he 
    took 
    his 
    troubled 
    mind 

    And he 
    said, 
    "dear 
    brother, 

    I'm 
    in 
    bind" 

    But the 
    brother 
    would 
    not 
    hear 
    his 
    tale 

    He 
    said 
    Old 
    Daniel's 
    gonna 
    land 
    in 
    jail 

    So 
    to 
    his 
    father, 
    Daniel 
    did 
    run 

    And he 
    said, 
    "oh 
    father, 

    what 
    have 
    done?" 

    His 
    father 
    said, 
    "son, 
    you've 
    given 
    in 

    You 
    know 
    you 
    won 
    your 
    harp 

    But 
    you 
    lost 
    in 
    sin" 

    Verse 7
    Then 
    Daniel 
    took 
    the 
    harp 
    and 

    went 
    high 
    on 
    the 
    hill 

    And he 
    blew 
    across 
    the 
    meadow 

    like 
    whippoorwill 

    He played 
    out 
    his 
    heart 

    just 
    for time 
    to pass 

    But 
    as 
    he 
    looked 
    to 
    the 
    ground 

    He 
    no
    ticed, 
    no shadow 
    did 

    Interlude 2
    he cast 



    Verse 8
    Daniel, 
    Daniel 
    and 
    the 
    sac
    red 
    harp 

    Dancing 
    through 
    the 
    clover 

    Daniel, 
    Daniel 
    would 
    you 
    mind 

    If 
    look 
    it 
    over

    • 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.
