    • Verse 1
    Early 
    one 

    morn
    in' 
    the blues 
    came fall
    in' 
    down 

    Early 
    one 
    morning, 

    the blues 
    came 
    falling 
    down 

    All 
    locked 
    up in 
    jail, 

    now 
    I'm 
    prisoner 
    bound 

    When 
    they had my 
    trial, 

    baby you 
    could 
    not 

    be 
    found. 

    When 
    they had 
    my trial, 
    baby 
    you could 
    not 
    be 
    found, 

    too 
    late 
    mistreating 

    And mama, 
    your daddy 
    he's 
    prayin' 

    about 

    Oh last 
    night, 

    I 
    sat 
    in my 
    cell 
    alone 

    Or 
    last 
    night 
    I 
    sat 
    in 
    my 
    cell 
    alone 

    I 
    was 
    thinkin' of 
    you, baby, 

    and 
    my 
    happy 
    home 

    Baby, 
    you may 
    never 
    see 

    my 
    smilin' 
    face 
    again 

    Baby, 
    you may never 
    see 

    my 
    smilin' 
    face 
    again 

    But 
    you must always 
    remember 

    that 
    I 
    have 
    been 

    Sometimes 
    I 
    won
    der, 

    why 
    don't 
    you write 
    to 
    me? 

    Sometimes 
    I 
    wonder, baby, 

    why don't 
    you write to 
    me? 

    Now 
    if I'd been a bad 
    fella, 

    I 
    never did 
    intend 
    to 
    be.

      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

      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.
