    • Verse 1
    The sun 
    goes 

    down 
    in 
    Calvin 
    county 

    Neon 
    lights 
    from 
    an 
    old 
    beer 
    sign 

    Shown 
    through 
    the 
    window 

    out 
    on 
    the sidewalk 

    As 
    I 
    walked 
    in 
    to pass 
    the 
    time; 

    I looked 
    around, 
    sat 
    down 
    at 
    a table 

    Ordered 
    beef 
    on 
    rye 
    and 
    a glass 
    of 
    wine 

    And 
    through 
    the door 
    came 
    a little 
    old 
    lady 

    She 
    was selling 
    paper 
    roses 
    and 

    they 
    only 
    cost 
    a 
    dime. 

    Verse 2

    Paper 
    Rosie, 
    Paper 
    Rosie 

    She sold 
    you 
    Paper 
    Roses, 

    but 
    they 
    only 
    cost 
    a dime. 

    Verse 3

    Sil
    ver 
    hair 
    that's 
    lost 

    it
    s' Gold 

    Trembling 
    hand 
    as 
    she 
    passed 
    the 
    rose 

    Red 
    Crepe 
    paper, 

    made 
    nature's 
    bou
    quet 

    Help 
    a 
    little 
    old 
    lady 
    buy 
    a 
    rose 
    today; 

    I 
    took 
    the 
    rose 
    from 
    her 
    trembling 
    hand 

    With 
    eyes 
    of 
    age, 

    she 
    smiled 
    and 
    walked 
    away 

    Like 
    a 
    breath 
    of 
    spring 
    I 

    could 
    smell 
    the rose 

    It 
    came 
    alive 
    and 
    I 
    heard 
    her 
    say. 

    Verse 4

    Buy 
    my 
    Roses, 
    pretty 
    roses 

    They're 
    only 
    made 
    of 
    paper 

    But 
    they 
    only 
    cost 
    a dime. 

    Verse 5

    I went 
    to 
    look 
    for 
    her 
    out
    side 

    A spray 
    of 
    roses 
    lay 
    by 
    her 
    side 

    The sky 
    lit 
    up 
    and 
    the choir 
    sang 

    A thousand 
    voices 
    as 

    the church 
    bells 
    rang. 

    They 
    sang 
    Verse 6
    Rosie 
    (Rosie), paper 

    Rosie 
    (Rosie) 

    She sold 
    you

    they 
    only 
    cost 
    a dime.

    • 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.”
