    Had a friend, 
    Louie Brown, 

    he 
    was a deacon 

    Just 
    as 
    wise 
    as 
    he could be 

    Now you 
    realize 
    he could 

    read the 
    Good Book 
    back 

    From 
    Revela
    tions 
    down 

    to Genesee 

    You know last 
    Sunday 
    morning 

    we 
    was over 
    to the 
    church 

    My 
    buddy 
    wants to 
    take 
    him a stand 

    And 
    he looks 
    out upon 

    that whole 
    congregation 

    The 
    Good 
    Book 
    in 
    his 
    hand 

    Now he cast 
    his eye 
    about 

    And 
    then he looks 
    over in 

    the 
    Amen 
    Corner 

    All the 
    sisters 
    commenced 

    to shout 
    (What'd 
    he say?) 

    He 
    said 

    "A married 
    man's 
    fool 
    Verse 2

    to think that

    • 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.
