    Verse 1
    G

    She grew up plain and
    C

    simple in a farming town
    D

    Her daddy played the fiddle

    and use to do the calling
    G

    When they had hoedowns
    Em

    She said the neighbors would come

    And they'd move all my grandma's
    C

    furniture 'round

    And there'd be twenty or more there

    on the old wooden floor
    D

    Dancing to a country sound
    Verse 2
    G

    The Carters and Jimmy Rodgers
    C

    played her fa vorite songs
    D

    And on Saturday nights

    there was a radio show
    G

    And she would sing along
    A

    And I'll never forget her face when
    C

    she revealed to me
    G

    That she'd dreamed about singing
    D

    at The Grand Ol' Opry
    G
    Verse 3
    D

    G

    Her eyes, oh how they sparkled
    C

    when she sang those songs
    D

    While she was hanging the clothes on the line
    G

    I was a kid just a humming along
    Em

    Well, I'd be playing in the grass,
    C

    To her what might of seemed obliviously

    But there ain't no doubt about it,
    D

    she sure made her mark on me
    Verse 4
    G

    She played old gospel records
    C

    on the phonograph
    D

    She turned them up loud

    and we'd sing along
    G

    But those days have passed

    C

    Just now that I am older it occurs to me
    G

    That I was singing in the

    G

    And we sang Sweet Rose of Sharon,

    Abide With Me

    'til I ride The Gospel Ship
    G

    to Heaven's Jubilee
    Em

    And In That Great Triumphant
    C

    Morning my soul will be free

    And My Burdens Will Be Lifted

    • 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.
