    Where 
    have 
    you 
    been 
    all 
    the 
    day, 

    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    Where 
    have 
    you 
    been 
    all 
    the 
    day, 
    Willie, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    I 
    have 
    been 
    all 
    the 
    day 

    courting 
    with 
    my 
    lady 
    Gaye. 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 

    be taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy. 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy. 

    Can 
    she 
    brew 
    and 
    can 
    she 
    bake, 

    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    Can 
    she 
    brew 
    and 
    can 
    she 
    bake, 

    Willie, 
    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    She 
    can 
    brew, 
    she can 
    bake, 

    she 
    can 
    make 
    a 
    wedding 
    cake 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    Can 
    she 
    weave 
    and 
    can 
    she spin, 

    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    Can 
    she 
    weave 
    and 
    can 
    she spin, 
    Willie, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    She 
    can 
    weave, 
    she can 
    spin, 

    she 
    can 
    do 
    most 
    anything 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    Can 
    she 
    make 
    up 
    a 
    bed, 
    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    Can 
    she 
    make 
    up 
    a 
    bed, 
    Willie, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    She 
    can 
    make 
    up 
    a 
    bed 

    forty 
    feet 
    above 
    her 
    head 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    How 
    old 
    is 
    she 
    then, 
    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    How 
    old 
    is 
    she 
    then, 
    Willie, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    Twice 
    six, 
    twice 
    seven, 

    twice 
    twenty 
    and 
    el
    even 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    But 
    she 
    is 
    too 
    young 

    to 
    be 
    taken 
    from 
    her 
    mammy 

    Did 
    you 
    ask 
    her 
    to 
    wed, 
    my 
    boy 
    Willie? 

    Did 
    you 
    ask 
    her 
    to 
    wed, 
    Willie, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me 
    now? 

    Yes, 
    I 
    asked 
    her 
    to 
    wait, 

    and 
    what 
    do 
    you 
    think 
    she 
    said? 

    I 
    am 
    much 
    too 
    young 
    to 
    be 

    taken 
    from 
    my 
    Mammy.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
