    Verse 1
    I 
    was 
    strolling 
    one 

    day 
    in 
    a 
    lonely 
    graveyard 

    When 
    a 
    voice 
    from 
    the 
    tombs 
    seemed 
    to 
    say, 

    I 
    once 
    lived 
    as 
    you 
    lived, 

    walked 
    and 
    talked 
    as 
    you 
    talked, 

    But 
    from 
    earth 
    I 
    was 
    soon 
    called 
    away. 

    Oh, 
    those 
    tombs, 
    lonely 
    tombs, 

    Seemed 
    to 
    say 
    in 
    a 
    low, 
    gentle tone, 

    Oh, 
    sweet 
    is 
    the 
    rest 

    In 
    our 
    beautiful 
    heavenly 
    home 

    Every 
    voice 
    from 
    the 
    tomb 

    Seemed 
    to 
    whisper 
    and 
    say, 

    You 
    must 
    soon 
    follow 
    me 

    And 
    I 
    thought 
    as 
    I 
    looked 

    On 
    them 
    cold 
    marble 
    slabs 

    What 
    a dark, 
    place 

    That 
    must 
    be 

    Oh, 
    those 
    two 
    ladies 

    Lonely, 
    two 
    ladies 

    Seem 
    to say 
    in 
    a 
    low, 
    gentle tone 

    Oh, 
    sweet, 
    how 
    sweet 
    is 
    the 
    regalest 
    in 
    our 

    beautiful 
    heavenly 
    home. 


    Then 
    I 
    came 
    to 
    the 
    place 
    where 
    my 
    mother 
    was 
    laid, 

    and 
    in 
    silence 
    I 
    stood 
    by 
    her 
    tomb. 

    Then 
    her 
    voice 
    seemed 
    to 
    say, 

    in 
    a 
    low 
    gentle 
    tone, 

    And I 
    am 
    safe 
    with 
    my 

    Saviour 
    at 
    home. 

    All 
    those 
    tunes, 
    lonely 
    tunes, 

    Seem 
    to say 
    in 
    a 
    low 
    gentle 
    tone, 

    Oh, 
    how 
    sweet 
    is 
    the 
    rest 

    In 
    our 
    beautiful 
    heavenly 
    home. 

    you

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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.

      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.
