  • Verse 1
    Timmy was born 

    in the midst 
    of 
    December 

    And 
    he was 
    our new baby 
    boy 

    that we 
    so dearly loved 

    And 
    we were so happy 
    for him 

    an
    d so 
    happy with 
    him 

    And 
    so we got on our 
    knees 

    and 
    we thanked God 
    above 

    Well, 
    the days 
    passed for weeks, 

    and the 
    weeks turned into a 
    year, 

    and 
    then we found 

    that Timmy couldn't 
    walk, 

    and 
    we were so 
    hurt at first. 

    So we just 
    loved him much 
    harder

    and 
    we couldn't wait 
    for him 

    to begin to 
    talk. 

    Well, 
    soon he said 
    his first words, 

    and 
    soon he was talking 

    from morning 

    until late at 
    night. 

    And then 
    soon 
    he was six, 

    and 
    soon he was 
    seven, 

    and 
    then we 
    had another horrible 
    fright. 

    You 
    see, Timmy got 
    sick, 

    and 
    so we 
    called for the 
    doctor, 

    and 
    they found 
    a cancer 
    inside, 

    an
    d they said 
    there wasn't much 
    time, 

    an
    d all 
    we could do was just 

    to 
    make him happy, 

    because 
    he was going 
    to die. 

    Well, 
    he would sit 
    by that window 

    and 
    watch the neighbor's 
    kid

    s running 
    and 
    playing outside. 

    And 
    he used to 
    ask me some question

    about 
    why he was feeling 
    so bad. 

    But 
    you know he 
    never did cry. 

    I remember 
    one day he told 
    me he 
    wished he could 

    run like all 
    the 
    other kids 
    when 
    they 

    And then 
    he turned back to 
    star

    ing and 
    dreaming 

    of something 
    mil
    lion miles 

    away. 

    And 
    fi
    nally each 
    day 
    he got 
    sicker, 

    and 
    each 
    day he got 
    weaker and 
    thinner. 

    And I 
    was 
    hold
    in' him by the win

    dow that day 

    His 
    eyes 
    were so 
    weak, 

    and 
    he 
    couldn't even 
    speak 

    But 
    he 
    smiled 
    as 
    he 
    ran 
    out to 
    play

    • 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.
