    I 
    know 
    this 
    dress 
    I'm 
    wearing 
    doesn't 
    hide 

    the 
    secret 
    I 
    have tried 
    concealing 

    When 
    he 
    left 
    he 
    promised 
    me 
    that 
    he'd be 

    back 
    by 
    the 
    time 
    it 
    was 
    revealing 

    The 
    sun 
    behind 
    the 
    cloud 
    just 
    cast 
    a 
    crawling 

    shadow 
    over 
    the fields 
    of 
    clover 

    And 
    time 
    is 
    running 
    out 
    for me, 

    I 
    wish 
    that 
    he 
    would hurry 
    down 
    from 

    Dover 

    He 
    has 
    been 
    gone 
    so 
    long, 

    when 
    he left 
    the snow 
    was 
    deep 
    on 
    the ground 

    And 
    I 
    have seen 
    a 
    spring 
    and summer 
    pass, 

    and 
    now 
    the leaves 
    are 
    turning 
    brown 

    At 
    any 
    time 
    a 
    tiny 
    face 
    will 
    show 
    itself 
    as 
    waiting, 

    it's almost 
    over 

    But 
    I 
    won't 
    have 
    a 
    name 
    to 
    give 
    it 
    if 

    he 
    doesn't 
    hurry 
    down 
    from 

    Dover 

    My 
    folks 
    weren't 
    understanding 
    when 
    they 
    found 

    out 
    they 
    sent 
    me 
    from 
    the 
    home 
    place 

    My 
    daddy 
    said 
    if folks 
    found 
    out 
    he'd 

    be ashamed 
    to 
    ever 
    show 
    his 
    face 

    My 
    mama 
    said 
    I 
    was a 
    fool, 

    and 
    she 
    did not 
    believe 
    it 
    when 
    I 
    told 
    her 

    That 
    everything 
    would 
    be alright, 

    cause 
    soon 
    he would 
    be 
    com
    ing 
    down 
    from 

    Dover 

    I 
    loved 
    him 
    more 
    than anything, 

    and 
    I 
    could 
    not 
    refuse 
    him 
    when 
    he 
    needed 
    me. 

    He 
    was 
    the 
    only 
    one 
    I'd 
    loved, 

    and I 
    just 
    can't 
    be
    lieve 
    that 
    he 
    was using 
    me. 

    He 
    couldn't 
    leave 
    me 
    here 
    like 
    this, 

    I know 
    it can't 
    be 
    so, 
    it 
    can't 
    be 
    over 

    He 
    wouldn't 
    make 
    me 
    go 
    through 
    this 
    alone, 

    or he'll 
    be coming 
    down 
    from 

    Dover 

    My 
    body 
    aches, 
    the 
    time 
    is 
    near, 

    It's lonely 
    in 
    this 
    place 
    where 
    I'm 
    lying. 

    Our 
    baby 
    has 
    been 
    born, 

    but 
    something's 
    wrong, 

    It's 
    much 
    too 
    still, 
    I 
    hear no 
    crying. 

    I 
    guess 
    in 
    some strange 
    way 
    she 
    knew 
    she'd 

    never 
    have 
    a father's 
    arms 
    to 
    hold 
    her 

    And 
    dying 
    was 
    her 
    way 
    of 
    telling 
    me 

    he 
    wasn't 
    coming 
    down 
    from 

    Dover 

    From 

    Dover, 

    From 

    Dover

      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.
