    • Verse 1
    My 
    daddy 
    told 
    me 
    that 
    boys 

    may 
    say 
    some 
    things 
    that 
    aren't 
    true 

    Well, 
    they 
    promise 
    me 
    the 
    sweet 
    things 

    that 
    they 
    never 
    intend 
    to 
    do 

    You 
    say 
    your 
    love 
    is 
    strong 

    And 
    you'll 
    never 
    do 
    me 
    wrong 

    (But let 
    me 
    tell 
    you 
    that...) 

    Verse 2
    My 
    daddy 
    told 
    me 
    to 
    open 
    up 

    my 
    eyes 
    and 
    not 
    be 
    blind 

    Every 
    time 
    I 
    look 
    at 
    you, 

    everything 
    you 
    do 
    seems 
    so 
    fine 

    I 
    love 
    you 
    so, 

    but 
    I'll 
    have 
    to 
    let 
    you 
    go 

    Unless 
    you 
    get 
    out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job 

    (get out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job) 

    Get 
    out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job (get out 

    and 
    get 
    a 
    job) 

    I'm gonna 
    wait 
    till 
    you 
    pass 
    the 
    test 

    Verse 3
    'Cause 
    my 
    daddy 
    knows 
    best 

    (daddy
    knows 
    best) 

    My daddy 
    knows 
    best 
    now 

    (He
    doesn't 
    want 
    me 
    to 
    make) 

    no 
    no 
    no 
    no 
    no no 

    (The same 
    mistakes) 
    no 

    no no no; 
    he 
    says 

    Romance 
    without 
    finance 

    can 
    be 
    a 
    nuisance 

    (Need your 
    lovin' 
    but 

    my 
    daddy 
    told 
    me) 

    Verse 4
    Yes 
    he 
    told 
    me 
    that 
    our 
    love 
    is 
    fine 

    Oh 
    but 
    don't 
    let 
    it 
    mislead 
    you 

    'Cause 
    daddy 
    also 
    said 

    that 
    love 
    is 
    blind 

    While 
    you're 
    in 
    poolrooms, 

    you 
    should 
    be 
    in 
    school
    rooms 

    And 
    get 
    out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job 

    (get out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job) 

    Get 
    out 
    and 
    get 
    a 
    job (get out 

    and 
    get 
    a 
    job) 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    wait 
    till 
    you 
    pass 
    the 
    test 

    Verse 5
    'Cause 
    my 
    daddy 
    knows 
    best 

    (daddy knows 
    best) 

    No, 
    don't 
    care 
    what 
    you 
    say 

    We've 
    got 
    to 
    do 
    it 
    his 
    way 

    Don't 
    say 
    that 
    he's 
    mean 

    I 
    have 
    to 
    tell 
    him 
    everything

      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.
