    Verse 1
    Raised 
    a child 
    of farmer 
    folks 

    down 
    in 
    the Southern 
    land 

    I worked 
    all 
    day 
    in the 
    summer 
    sun 

    'til my 
    back 
    was 
    leather 
    tan 

    Now 
    I've 
    been 
    called 
    hillbilly, 

    I've 
    been 
    called 
    a redneck 
    too 

    But 
    ain't 
    backwards, 
    dumb 
    or poor, 

    I'm just 
    red, 
    white 
    and blue 

    Son 
    of the New 
    South, 
    Verse 2

    step- 
    child 
    to 
    Uncle 
    Sam 

    Baptized 
    in 
    100 proof 
    and saved 

    by the 
    blood 
    of the lam

    This is 
    the New 
    South, 

    still 
    drink our 
    tea 
    from a 
    Mason 
    jar 

    We're the 
    backbone 
    of this 
    country 

    and we're 
    proud 
    of who 
    we 
    are 

    Verse 3

    From 
    Richmond 
    to Montgomery 

    From San 
    Ant
    one 
    to 
    Caroline 

    There's a 
    brand 
    new spirit 
    sweepin' 
    in 

    Like 
    wind 
    through 
    Georgia 
    pines 

    Verse 4
    I hold 
    on 
    to 
    some old 
    ways 

    I ain't scared 
    to 
    try 
    the new 

    But 
    what it 
    comes 
    to what 
    I change 

    I'll 
    be 
    the one 
    to choose 

    Verse 5
    Son 
    of 
    the New 
    South, 

    step- 
    child 
    to Uncle 
    Sam 

    Bap
    tized 
    in 
    100 proof 
    and saved 

    by the 
    blood 
    of the lam

    This is 
    the New 
    South, 

    still 
    drink 
    our tea 
    from a 
    Mason 
    jar 

    We're the 
    backbone 
    of this 
    country 
    and 
    we're 

    proud 
    of who 
    we 
    are 

    Verse 6

    Well the 
    times 
    are 
    a changin' 

    And the 
    South 
    has 
    come 
    of age 

    We've 
    put 
    the past 
    behind 
    us 

    It's 
    time 
    to turn 
    the page

    • 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.
