    Verse 1
    Born 
    with 
    the 
    moon 

    in 
    Cancer 

    Choose 
    her 
    name 

    she 
    will 
    answer 
    to 

    Call 
    her 
    green 

    and 
    the 
    winters 
    can 
    not 
    fade 
    her 

    Call 
    her 
    green 
    for 
    the 
    children 

    who've 
    made 
    her 
    little 
    green 

    Be 
    gyp
    sy 
    dancer 

    Verse 2
    He 
    went 
    to 
    Cali
    fornia 

    Hear- 
    ing 
    that 
    every
    thing's 

    warm
    er 
    there 

    So 
    you 
    write 
    him 
    letter 

    and 
    say 
    "Her 
    eyes 
    are 
    blue" 

    He 
    sends 
    you 
    poem 
    and 
    she's 
    lost 
    to 
    you 

    Little 
    green, 

    he's 
    non- 
    conformer 

    Chorus 1
    Just 
    little 
    green 

    Like 
    the 
    color 
    when 
    the 
    spring 
    is 
    born 

    There'll 
    be 
    crocuses 

    to 
    bring 
    to 
    school 
    to
    morrow 

    Just 
    little 
    green 

    Like 
    the 
    nights 

    when 
    the 
    Northern 
    lights 
    per
    form 

    There'll 
    be 
    icicles 
    and 
    birthday 
    clothes 

    And 
    sometimes 
    there'll 
    be 
    sorrow 

    Verse 3
    Child 
    with 
    child 

    pretending 

    Wea- 
    ry 
    of 
    lies 

    you 
    are 
    sending 
    home 

    So 
    you 
    sign 
    all 
    the 
    papers 
    in 
    the 
    family 
    name 

    You're 
    sad 
    and 
    you're 
    sorry 

    but 
    you're 
    not 
    ashamed 

    Little 
    green, 

    have 
    happy 
    ending 

    Chorus 2
    Just 
    little 
    green 

    Like 
    the 
    color 
    when 
    the 
    spring 
    is 
    born 

    There'll 
    be 
    crocuses 

    to 
    bring 
    to 
    school 
    to
    morrow 

    Just 
    little 
    green 

    Like 
    the 
    nights 

    when 
    the 
    Northern 
    lights 
    per
    form 

    There'll 
    be 
    icicles 
    and 
    birthday 
    clothes 

    And 
    sometimes 

    there'll 
    be 
    sor-

    • 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.
