F#
A
D

And softly she sang it to me

You know, I get to thinkin' a lot of times about
G

back when I was a boy, the old home
D
Bm

place where I grew up, of the days both good and bad,
E

while my overalls were hand -me -downs,
A

my shoes were, they were full of holes.
D

I used to walk four miles to school every day through the rain,
G

through the sleep, and the cold.
D

I've seen the nights when my daddy would cry

for the things that his family would need,
A

but all he ever got was a badland farm
D

and seven hungry mouse to feed.

And yet, yet our home fire
A

never flickered once,
D

Cause when all of these things went wrong,


Mama took the helm down and

Mama sang a song.

What a friend we have in
G

Jesus.
D

Oh, I've been rocked

to sleep a many a night,
A

to the tune of what a friend and come morning
D

rock of ages why it would wake

me gently once again and then dad

he'd reach up and he'd take the
G

Bible down

and he'd read it read it loud and long and I
D

always felt that maybe our home
A

was blessed when daddy would say mama
D

sing a song now let's see sister left

home first I guess and there was
G

Bob and

Tommy and the last was

Dan but then dad's hair was
C

turning white and I had to be my mama's little man but it

seemed that his daddy's back grew weak
G
D

my mother's faith just grew that much stronger and
G

those were the greatest days of all yes they are

When

Mama sang the song
F#
G

Blood of angels
C
G

Cleft for me

Let me hide
C#
D

Myself in
G

Thee
Em
D

I guess the house is still standing
G

I don't get to go back there anymore,

at least much
D

No voices is left to fill those old halls

I bet there ain't even no steps
G

to grace the floor

Cause you see my mama

sings in heaven now

Up around

God's golden throne

But I'll always believe
C

that this world is a

Better place to live because one time

My mama sang a song.

Precious memories flood my soul.

  • 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.
