Verse 1
G
C
The funeral was over,
F
D
the folks started home
G
C
It was only a few that were there
F
D
A lonely little fellow on an old wagon seat,
G
C
His heart ached too heavy to bear.
F
Turn to his father who drove the old mule
D
G
C
His face plainly showed the deep hurt
Why did they put Grandpappy
F
in that old wooden box
D
G
C
Then cover him over with dirt?
The man searched for an answer
F
as the old mule walked along
D
Through his tears he gazed down the road,
G
Bb
As he held the little boy
F
G
close to his old ragged shirt,
C
And tried awful hard to lighten his load.
Why, Pappy wasn't in that box, boy,
F
The Lord took him out.
Dm
D
He came and got Pappy last night
G
while he was asleep.
And that old coffin,
C
that's all they buried today, boy.
Ab
That's the truth, honey baby,
Db
don't you weep
Eb
You remember how old Pappy always
Gb
say he think he need a new banjo?

Well, the Lord know that
Db
And he come and got Pappy
Bbm
He found him a -dreamin'
Eb
and a -rockin'
in that old rockin' chair
Ab
And he take him up to heaven
Db
and he show him a big beautiful garden

And he say, Pappy, you work it
Gbm
You not only get a new banjo
Gb
Db
but you'll get a new mule, a good mule,
Ab
Db
and a plow that's got a
golden plowshare.
That's what he'd say to Pappy.
Yeah, Pappy's gone away,
Gb
but he's got a new banjo,
a brand new one,
Db
and he's just set ting up there rockin'
Bbm
and a -plinkin' on them golden stairs.
Eb
And I'll tell you something else,
Ab
boy, Pappy's got a new mule,
Db
a good mule this time.
Gb
And old Pappy's workin' in a big,
Gbm
beautiful garden
Db
And he's plowin' with
that golden plowshare
Ab
Db
That's the truth, honey baby,
that's the truth

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
