  • Verse 1
    Mama, 

    why 
    did 
    you 
    do 
    it? 

    Mama, 
    who 
    drove 
    you 
    to 
    it? 

    Verse 2

    Was 
    it 
    the 
    pigs 
    in 
    grey 
    suits 

    Persecuting 
    you? 

    Uncivil 
    servants 

    Unconcerned 
    at 
    how 
    they 
    frightened 
    you 

    Life 
    is 
    nothing 
    much 
    to 
    lose 

    It's 
    just 
    so 
    lonely 
    here 
    without 

    you 

    Verse 3
    Mama, 
    why 
    did 
    you 
    do 
    it? 

    Mama, 
    who 
    drove 
    you 
    to 
    it? 

    Verse 4
    Spare 
    priggish 
    money 
    men 

    Who 
    scared 
    the 
    life 
    out 
    of 

    you 

    Bailiffs 
    with 
    bad 
    breath 

    will 
    slit 
    their 
    throats 
    for 
    you 

    Life 
    is 
    nothing 
    much 
    to 
    lose 

    It's 
    just 
    so 
    lonely 
    here 
    without 
    you, 

    Interlude 1
    mama 





    Verse 5
    Life 
    is 
    nothing 
    much 
    to 
    lose 

    It's 
    just 
    so 
    lonely 
    here 
    without 
    you 

    Verse 6
    So, 
    we're 
    gonna 
    run 
    to you 

    We're 
    gonna 
    come 
    to 
    you 

    We're 
    gonna 
    lie 
    down 
    be
    side 
    you, 

    mama 

    We're gonna 
    Verse 7
    be with 
    you 

    We're 
    gonna 
    join 
    you 

    We're 
    gonna 
    lie 
    down 
    beside 
    you, 

    mama 

    And 
    we 
    will 
    be 
    safe 
    Verse 8
    and 

    sheltered 
    in 
    our 
    graves 

    We'll 
    come 
    before 
    you 

    And 
    we will 
    kiss 
    you 

    By 
    way 
    of one 
    final 
    hug, 

    Outro 1

    • 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.
