    When 
    we 
    got 
    married 
    in 
    the backyard 

    I'm 
    putting 
    in 
    strings 
    of 
    my 
    old 
    guitar 

    He 
    was 
    black 
    but 
    he'd 
    stayed 
    sharp 

    I 
    had 
    no 
    idea 
    at 
    all 
    how 
    happy 

    it 
    will 
    make 
    small 

    How 
    drunk 
    you 
    and 
    I 
    get 
    before 
    dark 

    When 
    I 
    read 
    you 
    my 
    vows, 

    my 
    daddy 
    looked 
    so 
    proud 

    My 
    aunt 
    smiled, 

    in 
    a year 
    and 
    craned 
    to 
    sea 

    When 
    baby, 
    gee 
    hit 
    the 
    tree 

    Right 
    then 
    and 
    there 
    I 
    started 
    believing 

    Your 
    mom 
    should 
    host 
    this 

    party 
    every 
    weekend 

    Verse 2
    We 
    sang 
    eating 
    the 
    pies 

    in 
    three- 
    four 
    times 

    One, 
    two, 
    three, 
    two- 
    two, 
    three 
    hee- 
    haw 

    Girl 
    your 
    mo
    m 
    could 
    cut 
    a 
    rug 

    How 
    lucky 
    to 
    be 
    in 
    love 

    With 
    you 
    the 
    whole 
    family 

    and 
    Amodol 

    Verse 3
    Yeah 
    the 
    baby 
    came 
    next 

    Then 
    ate 
    up 
    all 
    of 
    our 
    pay 
    checks 

    We 
    named 
    her Lily 
    Jane 

    and 
    you 
    built 
    a 
    crib 

    We 
    re- 
    arranged 
    the 
    house, 

    I 
    kicked 
    all 
    of 
    the 
    ants 
    out 

    And 
    we 
    sit 
    together 
    at 

    meal 
    time 
    again 

    Verse 4

    And 
    we 
    sing 
    eating 
    the 
    pies 

    to 
    her 
    at 
    bedtime 

    One, 
    two, 
    three, 
    two- 
    two, 
    three 
    hee- 
    haw 

    Now 
    Lily- 
    Jane 
    could 
    cut 
    a 
    rug 

    Just 
    like 
    your 
    mama 
    would 

    She 
    re
    minds 
    me 
    most 
    of 
    her 
    grandma, 

    af
    ter 
    all 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    Yeah 
    before 
    we 
    hit 
    middle- 
    age 

    There's 
    one 
    thing 
    left 
    I'd 
    like 
    to 
    say 

    I loved 
    you 
    from 
    the first 

    time 
    I 
    saw 
    your 
    face 

    Though 
    I've 
    an
    noyed 
    you 
    ever 
    since 

    I'm 
    thankful 
    that 
    we 
    are 
    still 
    friends 

    And 
    growing 
    older 
    and 

    poorer 
    with 
    grace 

    Verse 6
    Let's 
    sing 
    eating 
    the 
    pie 

    in our 
    old 
    age 
    time 

    One, 
    two, 
    three, 
    two- 
    two, 
    three 
    hee- 
    haw 

    And 
    Lily- 
    Jane 
    can 
    pay 
    our 
    bills 

    and 
    admin
    ister 
    our 
    pills 

    While 
    we 
    sneak 
    off 
    and 
    get 
    drunk 
    before 
    dark

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
