    Verse 1
    On 
    the 
    day 
    that 
    was 
    born 

    Daddy 
    sat 
    down 
    and 
    cried 

    had 
    the 
    mark 
    just 
    as 
    plain 
    as 
    day 

    Which 
    could 
    not 
    be 
    de
    nied 

    They 
    say 
    that 
    Cain 
    caught 
    Abel 

    Rolling 
    loaded 
    dice 

    Ace 
    of 
    spades 
    be
    hind 
    his 
    ear 

    And 
    him 
    not 
    thinking 
    twice

    Verse 2
    If 
    all 
    you 
    got 
    to 
    live 
    for 

    Is 
    what 
    you 
    left 
    be
    hind 

    Get 
    yourself 
    powder 
    charge 

    And 
    seal 
    that 
    silver 
    mine 

    Lost 
    my 
    boots 
    in 
    transit 
    babe 

    Pile 
    of 
    smoking 
    leather 

    Nailed 
    retread 
    to 
    my 
    feet 

    And 
    prayed 
    for 
    better 
    weather

    • 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.
