    • Verse 1
    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the 
    roses 

    she 
    grew 
    them 
    in the 
    yard 

    But 
    Winter 
    always 
    came 
    around 

    and 
    made 
    the 
    grow
    ing 
    way 
    too 
    hard 

    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the roses 

    and 
    when 
    she 
    had 
    the 
    time 

    She'd 
    decorate 
    the 
    living 
    room 

    for 
    all 
    us kids 
    to 
    see 

    When 
    I hear 
    the 
    Verse 2
    Sunday 
    bells 

    ringing 
    in 
    the morning 

    I 
    remember 
    crying 

    when 
    she 
    used 
    to 
    sing 

    Verse 3
    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the roses 

    but most 
    of all 
    she 
    cared 

    About 
    the way 
    we 
    learned 
    to 
    live 

    And 
    if 
    we 
    said 
    our 
    prayers 

    Verse 4

    You know 
    I kept 
    the family 

    bib
    le 

    With the rose 
    that she 
    saved 
    inside 

    It was 
    pressed 
    between 
    the pages 

    Like 
    it 
    had found 
    a 
    place 
    to hide 

    Verse 5
    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the 
    roses 

    in such 
    a 
    special 
    way 

    We 
    bring 
    them 
    every 
    Mother's 
    Day 

    And 
    put 
    them 
    on her 
    grave 

    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the 
    roses 

    Verse 6

    Mama 
    liked 
    the roses 


    Verse 7
    Oh, 
    mama 
    liked 
    the roses

    • 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.”
