    Verse 1
    Mama 
    always 
    got 
    up 
    early 

    And 
    she never 
    went 
    to 
    bed 
    'til 
    late 

    Yet, 
    I 
    never 
    heard 
    her 
    complain
    in' 

    About 
    her 
    family 
    of 
    eight 

    There 
    were 
    times 
    she 
    should 

    have 
    been 
    sleep
    in' 

    But, 
    late 
    in 
    the midnight 
    hour 

    She'd 
    get 
    down 
    on 
    her knees 

    And 
    you 
    could 
    hear 
    her say, 

    "Lord 
    fill 
    them 
    will 
    your 

    power" 


    Verse 2
    [chorus] 

    Mama like 
    to 
    burn 
    the midnight 
    oil 

    Down 
    on 
    her knees 
    in 
    pray
    er 

    If 
    you 
    asked 
    why 
    she 
    did 
    it 

    She said 
    she 
    did 
    it 
    care she 
    cared 

    Now Mama 
    always 
    talked to 
    Jesus 

    When 
    she 
    knelt 
    by 
    her 
    rocking 
    chair 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    glad 
    my mama 
    was 
    will
    in' 

    To 
    burn 
    the midnight 
    oil 
    in 
    pray

    er 

    Verse 3

    Now Mama's 
    gone 
    to 
    be 
    with 
    Jesus 

    I've 
    got 
    a family 
    of 
    my 
    own 

    Yet, 
    whenever 
    the clock 
    strikes 
    mid
    night 

    You 
    will 
    find 
    me 
    all 
    alone 

    That's 
    when 
    I 
    start 
    to 
    call 
    upon 
    Je
    sus 

    For 
    His 
    wis
    dom 
    and 
    His 
    power 

    Cause 
    it 
    seems 
    that 
    He 
    loves 

    To 
    hear 
    a 
    Daddy's 
    prayer 

    Even 
    in 
    the 

    midnight 
    hour 

    Verse 4
    [chor
    us] 

    Verse 5
    Years 

    from 
    now, 

    when 
    my 
    grown 
    little 
    boy 

    Has 
    a 
    family 
    of 
    his 
    own 

    Will 
    he 
    kneel 
    down 
    and 
    pray 

    When 
    the 
    hour 
    gets 
    late 

    And 
    pass 
    the 
    legacy 
    on

    To burn 
    the midnight 
    oil 

    in

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
