    Ole 
    lonesome 
    George 
    the basset 

    lived 
    in Brent
    wood 
    Tennessee 

    And 
    even 
    though 
    he 
    had 

    his faults 
    he 
    was 
    a sight 
    to see 

    He 
    taught 
    the show 
    dog 
    puppies 

    to 
    al
    ways 
    try 
    and 
    please 

    To 
    hold 
    their 
    heads 
    and 
    tails 
    up 
    and 

    not 
    wet 
    the judge's 
    knees 

    Ole 
    George 
    was 
    not 
    a champion 

    but 
    his 
    owners 
    loved 
    him 
    so 

    They 
    drived the car 
    to 
    the dogshows ole 

    George 
    would get 
    the dough 

    But 
    when he'd 
    get 
    out 
    in 
    the rain 

    he 
    never 
    could 
    win 
    first 

    Several 
    judges 
    shook 
    their 
    heads 

    and 
    said 
    he 
    was 
    the 
    worst 

    Then 
    one 
    day 
    the 
    kannel keeper 

    got 
    an 
    urgent 
    call 

    From 
    the 
    local 
    TV 
    to 
    Mr 
    Tom 
    Hall 

    They 
    said 
    Johnny 
    Cash 
    is 

    puttin' 
    on 
    the show 
    tonight 

    He says 
    he 
    needs 
    basset 
    you've 

    got 
    one 
    ain't 
    that 
    right 

    Lonesome 
    George 
    went 
    to the show 

    and 
    he 
    did 
    everything 

    He barked 
    and growled 
    and 
    jumped 

    around 
    and 
    made 
    the 
    rappers 
    ring 

    He'd 
    left 
    the people 
    cheering 

    for 
    an
    other 
    curtain 
    call 

    And 
    so 
    ole 
    lonesome 
    George 
    became 

    the show 
    dog 
    after 
    all 
    mhm

    • 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.
