    Verse 1
    Mama 
    she 
    has 
    taught 
    me 
    well 

    Told 
    me 
    when 
    was 
    young 

    Son 
    your 
    life's 
    an 
    open 
    book 

    Don't 
    close 
    it 
    'fore 
    its 
    done 

    The 
    brightest 
    flame 
    burns 
    quickest 

    That's 
    what 
    heard 
    her 
    say 

    son's 
    heart's 
    owed 
    to 
    mother 

    But 
    must 
    find 
    my 
    way 

    Chorus 1
    Let 
    my 
    heart 
    go 

    Let 
    your 
    son 
    grow 

    Mama, 
    let 
    my 
    heart 
    go 

    Or 
    let 
    this 
    heart 
    be 
    still 

    Interlude 1
    Yeah, 
    still 





    Verse 2
    Rebel, 
    my 
    new 
    last 
    name 

    Wild 
    blood 
    in 
    my 
    veins 

    Apron 
    strings 
    around 
    my 
    neck 

    The 
    mark 
    that 
    still 
    re
    mains 

    Left 
    home 
    at 
    an 
    early 
    age 

    Of 
    what 
    heard 
    was 
    wrong 

    never 
    asked 
    forgive
    ness 

    But 
    what 
    is 
    said 
    is 
    done 

    Chorus 2
    Let 
    my 
    heart 
    go 

    Let 
    your 
    son 
    grow 

    Mama, 
    let 
    my 
    heart 
    go

    this 
    heart 
    be 
    still

    gave 
    me 
    your 
    emptiness

    • 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.
