    • Verse 1
    Gonna 
    buy 
    some 
    wood 
    every 

    size 
    and 
    length 

    Gonna 
    build 
    it 
    good 
    using 

    all 
    my 
    strength 

    Gonna 
    clear 
    the land 
    where 

    the 
    house 
    will 
    be 

    And start 
    another 
    branch 

    of 
    the family 
    tree 

    Verse 2

    Gonna 
    chalk 
    a 
    line 
    and 
    lay 
    a walnut 
    floor 

    Build 
    the 
    walls 
    of 
    pine 
    and 

    hang 
    a cherry 
    door 

    I'll 
    cut 
    the 
    beams 
    above 
    from 
    mahogany 

    And 
    I'll 
    get 
    the 
    love 

    from 
    the family 
    tree 

    Verse 3

    I've 
    wandered 
    far 

    and I've 
    walked 
    alone 

    Till the 
    morning 
    star 
    finally 
    led 
    me 
    home 

    Now 
    I'm 
    here 
    to stay 
    where 

    I was 
    meant 
    to be 

    Living 
    in 
    the shade 
    of the 
    family 
    tree 

    Verse 4
    Gonna 
    fill 
    this 
    place 
    like my 
    daddy 
    did 

    With a 
    friendly 
    face 
    and 
    a bunch 
    of 
    kid
    s 

    Even 
    though 
    he's 
    gone 
    he's 
    a part 
    of 
    me 

    As 
    I 
    carry 
    on 
    this 
    family 
    tree 

    Girl, 
    the wind 
    may 
    Verse 5
    blow 
    and the 

    clouds 
    may 
    come 

    Bringing 
    ice 
    and snow, 

    blocking 
    out 
    the sun

    The 
    earth 
    may 
    quake 
    and 
    the 

    ground 
    may 
    freeze 

    They will 
    never 
    shake 
    this 
    family 
    tree 

    Verse 6
    I've 
    wandered 
    far 
    and I've 

    walked 
    alone 

    Till the 
    morning 
    star 
    finally 
    led 
    me 
    home 

    Now 
    I'm 
    here 
    to stay 
    where 

    I was 
    meant 
    to be 

    Living 
    in 
    the shade 
    of the 
    family 
    tree 

    Verse 7
    Mama 
    look 
    at 
    him, 

    don't 
    he look 
    like 
    me 

    He's 
    the latest 
    limb 
    on the 

    Interlude 1
    family 
    tree 


    Verse 8
    Now 
    I'm 
    here 
    to stay 
    where 

    I was 
    meant 
    to 
    be 

    Living 
    in 
    the shade 
    of the 

    family 
    tree 

    Now 
    I'm here 
    to stay 

    where 
    I was 
    meant 
    to 
    be 

    Living 
    in 
    the shade 
    of 
    the family 
    tree

      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.
