Grandfather's clock chords by 
Harold Williams
N/A•
Verse 1
G
Tick -tock, tick -tock, tick -tock,
tick -tock
D
My grandfather's clock
G
C
was too large for the shelf
G
D
G
So it stood ninety years on the floor
D
It was taller by half
G
C
than the old man himself
G
D
G
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more
It was bought on the morn of the
D
day that he was born
G
D
and was always his treasure and pride.
G
D
But it stopped, shot,
G
C
never to go again
G
D
G
when the old man died.
Ninety years without slumbering.
Tick -tock, tick -tock,
his life seconds numbering.
Tick -tock, tick -tock.
D
G
C
It stopped, shot, never to go again
G
D
G
when the old man died.
Tick -tock, tick -tock, tick -tock, tick -tock.
D
In watching its pendulum
G
C
swing to and fro,
G
D
G
many hours had he spent while a boy.
D
And in childhood and manhood
G
C
the clock seemed to know
G
D
and to share both his grief and his joy.
G
For it struck twenty -four
D
when he entered at the door
G
D
With a blooming and beautiful bride
But it stopped, short,
G
C
never to go again
G
D
G
When the old man died
Ninety years without slumbering
Tick -tock, tick -tock
His life seconds numbering
Tick -tock, tick -tock
D
G
C
It stopped, shot, never to go again,
G
D
G
when the old man died.
D
G
D
G
D
G
D
G
C
It rang an alarm in the dead of the night,
G
D
G
an alarm that for years had been dumb.
D
And we knew that his spirit
G
C
was pluming for flight,
G
D
G
That his hour of departure had come.
Still the clock kept the time
D
with a soft and muffled chime,
G
D
As we silently stood by its side.
G
D
But it stopped, shot,
G
C
never to go again,
G
D
G
when the old man died.
Ninety years without slumbering,
tick -tock, tick -tock,
his life's second slumbering,
tick -tock, tick -tock, he's stopped,
D
G
C
shot, never to go again
G
D
G
when the old man died.
G
Tick -tock. you

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!!!”

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
