Verse 1
G

I was strolling one

day in a lonely graveyard
D

When a voice from the tombs seemed to say,
G

I once lived as you lived,

walked and talked as you talked,
Em
G
D
G

But from earth I was soon called away.

Oh, those tombs, lonely tombs,
D

Seemed to say in a low, gentle tone,
G

Oh, sweet is the rest
D
G

In our beautiful heavenly home

Every voice from the tomb

Seemed to whisper and say,
D

You must soon follow me
G

And I thought as I looked

On them cold marble slabs
D

What a dark, place
G

That must be

Oh, those two ladies

Lonely, two ladies
D
G
D

Seem to say in a low, gentle tone
G

Oh, sweet, how sweet is the regalest in our

beautiful heavenly home.

G


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

and in silence I stood by her tomb.
G

Then her voice seemed to say,

in a low gentle tone,
Em
G

And I am safe with my
D
G

Saviour at home.

All those tunes, lonely tunes,
D

Seem to say in a low gentle tone,
G

Oh, how sweet is the rest
D
G

In our beautiful heavenly home.

  • 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.
