    Verse 1

    Christmas 

    shoppers 
    shopping 
    on 
    a 
    neon 
    city 
    street 

    An
    other 
    Christmas 
    dollar 
    for 
    an

    other 
    Christmas 
    treat 

    There's 
    satin 
    on 
    the 
    pretty 
    doll

    s that 
    make 
    the children 
    glow 

    While 
    a 
    boy 
    walking 
    ragged 
    in 

    the 
    cold 
    Kentucky 
    snow 

    No, 
    they don't 
    have 
    Christmas 

    in 
    Ken
    tucky 

    There's 
    no 
    holly 
    on 
    a West 
    Virginia 
    door 

    For 
    the 
    trees 
    don't 
    twinkle 

    when 
    you're 
    hungry 

    And 
    the 
    Jingle 
    Bells 
    don't 
    jingle 

    when 
    you're poor 

    There's 
    lots 
    of toys 
    for children 
    when 

    then Christmas 
    time 
    is near 

    But the 
    present 
    for 
    the miners 

    is 
    a stocking 
    full 
    of beer 

    In 
    the dark 
    hills 
    of 
    Kentucky 
    there's 

    one 
    gift 
    that 
    may be 
    found 

    The 
    coal 
    dust 
    of 
    forgotten 
    days 

    that's 
    lying 
    on 
    the ground 

    No, 
    they don't 
    have 
    Christmas 

    in 
    Kentucky 

    There's 
    no 
    holly 
    on 
    a 
    West 
    Virginia 
    door 

    For 
    the trees 
    don't 
    twinkle 

    when 
    you're 
    hungry 

    And 
    the 
    Jingle 
    Bells 
    don't 
    jingle 

    when 
    you're poor 

    Let's 
    drink 
    a toast 
    to Congress 

    and 
    a toast 
    to Santa 
    Claus 

    and a 
    toast 
    to 
    all 
    the speeches 
    that 

    bring 
    the 
    loud 
    ap
    plause 

    There's 
    not 
    enough 
    to 
    give, 
    no, 

    there's 
    not 
    enough 
    to 
    share 

    So let's 
    drown 
    the 
    sounds 
    of 
    sorrow 
    with 

    a 
    hearty 
    Christmas 
    cheer 

    No, they don't 
    have 
    Christmas 

    in 
    Kentucky 

    There's 
    no 
    holly 
    on 
    a West 

    Virginia 
    door 

    For the trees 
    don't 
    twinkle 

    when 
    you're 
    hungry 

    And 
    the 
    Jingle 
    Bells 
    don't 

    jingle 
    when 
    you're poor 

    Have 
    a merry, 
    merry 
    Christmas 

    and 
    a 
    happy 
    new 
    year's 
    day 

    For 
    now's 
    a 
    time 
    of 
    plenty, 

    and 
    plenty's 
    here 
    to stay 

    But if 
    you 
    knew 
    what 
    Christmas 
    was, 

    I 
    think 
    that 
    you 
    would find 

    That 
    Christ 
    is 
    spending 
    Christmas 

    in 
    the 
    cold 
    Kentucky 
    mine 

    No, 
    they don't 
    have 
    Christmas 

    in 
    Ken
    tucky 

    There's 
    no 
    holly 
    on 
    a West 
    Vir
    ginia 
    door 

    For 
    the trees 
    don't 
    twinkle 

    when 
    you're 
    hungry 

    And 
    the 
    Jingle 
    Bells 
    don't 

    jingle 
    when 
    you're poor

      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.
