Best Tuning App Ever

Verse 1
G
C
Let me tell you a story,
G
that's never been made quite clear.
C
It won't take me long, oh,
G
I'm sure he'd be glad to hear.
About the hangman's
C
beautiful daughter,
G
how she was to be my wife,
C
How she came, how we went,
G
D
G
C
G
and how I lost my life.
C
Well, the rain blew out of the sunset,
G
and the clouds blew over the sky.
C
Through the fallin' darkness,
G
I heard a single cry
C
And out from the woodland,
G
she ran with tears so blind
C
And there, on the high road,
G
D
G
C
G
we met for the first time.
C
She cried upon my shoulder,
G
her hair as black as night.
C
I stroked the long dark tresses
G
and calmed her of her fright
C
Her gleaming eyes were wet with tears,
G
her lids were shy cast down
C
I took her hand, I held her close,
G
D
G
C
G
we walked back to the town
C
I called on her quite often
G
We walked out by the stream
C
Picked primrose in the marshes
G
To hear the wild gulls scream
C
The sun was black and crimson
G
As it sets above the wood
C
I took her hand, I held her close,
G
D
G
C
G
And I kissed her as I could.
C
Her father was the hangman,
G
Her mother used to hide,
C
For fear someone would talk to her,
G
She kept a girl inside.
C
But my lady was a rambler,
G
And cut through every bar,
C
And rose above the village
G
D
G
C
G
Just like the morning star
C
We stood down at the crossroads
G
And watched the gibbets swing
C
Her tears were on my shoulder
G
We trembled in the wind
C
We sat upon a milestone
G
And I held her close to cry
C
And through that long sad afternoon,
G
D
G
C
G
the carriages rolled by.
C
We talked about her childhood,
G
of all the life she'd known.
C
There was food upon the table,
G
there were flowers in her home.
C
We talked and she remembered,
G
those things best long forgot.
C
A rope hung on the kitchen door
G
D
G
C
G
And sometimes it did not
C
We talked about her childhood
G
Of all the life she'd known
C
There was food upon the table,
G
there were flowers in her home.
C
We talked and she remembered,
G
those things best long forgot.
C
A rope hung on the kitchen door
G
D
G
C
G
And sometimes it did not
C
The snow was on the mountains,
G
the air was cold and still
C
I left my home at sunrise,
G
and I met her at the mill
C
I set her in the saddle
G
And whistled for the day
C
We clung hard to each other
G
D
G
C
G
And slowly rode away
C
We climbed the first blue hillside
G
and silently looked down.
C
The horse was pulling forward
G
as we turned our heads around.
C
And so we left our homeland
G
and rode over the Lee
C
With the hangman's beautiful daughter,
G
D
a -hangin' on to me.

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.”
