  • Verse 1
    Everyone 
    knows 
    him 
    as 
    old 
    folks 

    Like 
    the 
    seasons 
    he 
    comes 
    and 
    he goes 

    Free 
    as 
    bird 
    an
    as 

    good 
    as his 
    word 

    That's 
    why 
    we 
    all 
    love 
    him so 



    He's 
    got 
    an old 
    corn 
    cob 
    pipe 

    So 
    mel
    low 
    and 
    ripe 

    You 
    needn't 
    be ashamed 
    of 
    him 

    Every 

    Friday 

    He 
    would 
    go 
    fishing 

    Down 
    by 
    the 
    lake 

    But 
    he would 
    only 
    catch 

    perch 
    or 
    two 

    great 
    big 
    whale 
    got 
    away 

    Well, 
    I guess 
    I'll 
    warm 
    up his 
    stay 

    But 
    someday 
    there 
    won't 
    be 

    no 
    more 
    old 
    folks 

    What 
    a lonesome 
    old 
    town 

    this 
    is gonna 
    be 

    Children's 
    voices 
    at 
    play 

    They 
    all 
    will 
    be si
    lent one 
    day 

    The 
    day 
    that 
    they 
    take 
    old, 
    they're 
    going to 
    take 
    old 
    folks 
    away, 

    old 
    folks 
    away.

      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.
