    • Verse 1
    In 
    the world's 
    mighty 

    gallery 
    of 
    pictures 

    There's 
    scenes 
    that're 

    painted 
    from 
    life 

    Scenes 
    of 
    youth 
    and 
    of 
    beauty 

    Scenes 
    of 
    hardship 
    and 
    strife 

    Scenes 
    of 
    Verse 2
    wealth 
    and 
    of 
    plenty 

    Old 
    age 
    and 
    a blushing 
    young 
    bride 

    Hang 
    on 
    the 
    wall 
    but the 
    saddest 
    of 
    all 

    Is the 
    pic
    tures 
    from 

    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Verse 3
    A picture 
    from 
    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Some
    body 
    has 
    fell 
    by 
    the 
    way 

    And 
    a life 
    has 
    gone 
    out 
    with 
    the tide 

    That 
    might 
    have 
    been 

    happy 
    some 
    day 

    There's 
    a 
    poor 
    Verse 4
    old mother 
    at 
    home 

    She's 
    watching 
    and 
    waiting 
    alone 

    Long
    ing 
    to 
    hear 
    from 
    a 
    loved 
    one 
    so 
    dear 

    Just 
    a pic
    ture 
    from 
    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Verse 5

    Now the 
    first 
    scene 
    is 
    one 
    of 
    two 
    brothers 

    Who 
    had 
    lost 
    all of his 
    money 
    at 
    play 

    One 
    lived 
    in 
    luxury 
    and 
    riches 

    And 
    the other 
    went 
    beg 
    for 
    his 
    bread 

    One 
    night 
    they 
    Verse 6
    met 
    on 
    the 
    highway 

    "Your 
    money 
    or lives, 
    sir," 
    they 
    cried 

    Then 
    with 
    his 
    knife 
    took 

    his own 
    brother 
    life 

    That's 
    a pic
    ture 
    from 
    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Verse 7
    Now 
    the next 
    scene 
    is 
    that 
    by 
    the 
    river 

    A 
    heartbroken 
    mother 
    and 
    babe 

    In 
    the harbor 
    lights 
    shine 
    and 
    they shiver 

    Out
    cast, 
    soon 
    no 
    one 
    will 
    save 

    Verse 8
    Once 
    she 
    was 
    once a true 

    woman 

    Somebody's 
    darling 
    and pride 

    God 
    help 
    her 
    she 
    leaps, 

    there's 
    no 
    one 
    to 
    weep 

    That's 
    a 
    picture 
    from 

    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Verse 9
    That's 
    a picture 
    from 
    life's 
    other 
    side 

    Some
    body 
    has 
    fell 
    by 
    the 
    way 

    And 
    a life 
    has 
    gone 
    out 
    with 
    the tide 

    That 
    might 
    have been 
    happy 
    some 
    day 

    Verse 10
    Some 
    poor 
    mother 
    at 
    home 

    Watching 
    and 
    waiting 
    alone 

    Longing 
    to 
    hear 
    from 
    a 

    loved 
    one 
    so 
    dear 

    That's 
    a 
    picture 
    from 
    life's 
    other

      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.
