    Verse 1
    ain't 
    had 
    a bite 

    'cause 
    the 
    moon's 
    too 
    bright 

    wish 
    had 
    a big 
    one 
    or 
    two 

    My 
    crock 
    line's 
    set 
    and my 

    hooks 
    are all 
    wet 

    And 
    mama's 
    got 
    the cat
    fish 
    blues 

    Verse 2
    Don't 
    like 
    to see 
    her un
    happy 

    She 
    treats 
    me like 
    a water 
    tree 

    hate 
    to see 
    mama 
    with 
    the cat
    fish 
    blues 

    And 
    the catfish 
    are layin' 

    in 
    the river 
    asleep 

    Verse 3
    There's 
    a bottle 
    of wine 

    layin' 
    easy 
    on 
    my mind 

    dug 
    enough 
    bait 
    to catch 
    a few 

    My 
    reeling's wet 
    but I 

    can
    not 
    forget 

    Mama's 
    got 
    the catfish 
    blues 

    Verse 4
    There's 

    turtle 
    on 

    the stump 
    and 
    the 
    toadfrog jump 

    And I 
    guess, 
    could 
    gig 
    me 
    a few 

    In 
    settlin' 
    fog 
    caught 

    a big 
    water 
    dog 

    Mama's 
    got 
    the catfish 
    blues 

    Verse 5
    don't 
    like 
    to see 
    her un
    happy 

    She 
    treats 
    me 
    like 
    a water 
    tree 

    hate 
    to see 
    mama 
    with 
    the cat
    fish 
    blues 

    And 
    the catfish 
    are layin' 

    in 
    the river 
    asleep 

    Verse 6
    There's 
    a bottle 
    of wine 

    layin' 
    easy 
    on 
    my mind 

    dug 
    enough 
    bait 
    to catch 
    a few 

    My 
    reeling's wet 
    but 
    cannot 
    forget 

    Mama's 
    got 
    the cat
    fish 
    blues, 

    Outro 1
    yeah

    • 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.
