Verse 1

D

Christmas
G

shoppers shopping on a neon city street
A
G

Another Christmas dollar for an
D

other Christmas treat
G

There's satin on the pretty doll

s that make the children glow
A

While a boy walking ragged in
G
D

the cold Kentucky snow
G

No, they don't have Christmas
D

in Kentucky
G
A

There's no holly on a West Virginia door
D
G

For the trees don't twinkle
D

when you're hungry
G
A

And the Jingle Bells don't jingle
D

when you're poor
G

There's lots of toys for children when

then Christmas time is near
A

But the present for the miners
G
D

is a stocking full of beer

In the dark hills of Kentucky there's
G

one gift that may be found
A

The coal dust of forgotten days
G
D

that's lying on the ground
G

No, they don't have Christmas
D

in Kentucky
G
A

There's no holly on a West Virginia door
D
G

For the trees don't twinkle
D

when you're hungry
G
A

And the Jingle Bells don't jingle
D

when you're poor

Let's drink a toast to Congress
G

and a toast to Santa Claus
A

and a toast to all the speeches that
G
D

bring the loud applause

There's not enough to give, no,
G

there's not enough to share
A

So let's drown the sounds of sorrow with
G
D

a hearty Christmas cheer
G

No, they don't have Christmas
D

in Kentucky
G

There's no holly on a West
A

Virginia door
D
G

For the trees don't twinkle
D

when you're hungry
G

And the Jingle Bells don't
A
D

jingle when you're poor

Have a merry, merry Christmas
G

and a happy new year's day
A

For now's a time of plenty,
G
D

and plenty's here to stay

But if you knew what Christmas was,
G

I think that you would find
A

That Christ is spending Christmas
G
D

in the cold Kentucky mine
G

No, they don't have Christmas
D

in Kentucky
G
A

There's no holly on a West Virginia door
D
G

For the trees don't twinkle
D

when you're hungry
G

And the Jingle Bells don't
A
D

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

    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.
