    Verse 1
    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Clapped 
    in 
    church 
    on 
    Sunday 
    morning 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Played 
    tambourine 
    so 
    well 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Used 
    to 
    issue 
    out 
    warning 

    She'd 
    say, 
    "Billy 
    don't 
    you 
    run 
    so 
    fast 

    Might 
    fall 
    on 
    piece 
    of 
    glass 

    "Might 
    be 
    snakes 
    there 
    in 
    that 
    grass" 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Verse 2
    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Soothed 
    local 
    unwed 
    mother 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Used 
    to 
    ache 
    sometimes 
    and 
    swell 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Used 
    to 
    lift 
    her 
    face 
    and 
    tell 
    her 

    She'd 
    say 
    "Baby, 
    Grandma 
    understands 

    That 
    you 
    really 
    love 
    that 
    man 

    Put 
    yourself 
    in 
    Jesus 
    hands" 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Verse 3
    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Used 
    to 
    hand 
    me 
    piece 
    of 
    candy 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Picked 
    me 
    up 
    each 
    time 
    fell 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Boy, 
    they 
    really 
    came 
    in 
    handy 

    She'd 
    say, 
    "Matty 
    don' 
    you 
    whip 
    that 
    boy 

    What 
    you 
    want 
    to 
    spank 
    him 
    for? 

    He 
    didn't 
    drop 
    no 
    apple 
    core" 

    But 
    don't 
    have 
    Grandma 
    anymore 

    If 
    get 
    to 
    Heaven 
    I'll 
    look 
    for 

    Grandma's 
    hands 

    Hmmm-mmh

    • 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.
