    Verse 1
    Oh 
    he makes 

    his 
    life 
    as 
    a carpenter 

    He 
    works 
    his 
    hands 
    in 
    wood 

    And 
    he 
    lives 
    the 
    way 
    his 
    granddad 

    Might 
    have 
    liked 
    and 
    under
    stood 

    He 
    goes 
    to 
    work 
    each 
    morning 

    And 
    he 
    comes 
    home 
    every 
    night 

    And 
    the 
    time 
    that 
    passes 
    in 
    between 

    He 
    knows 
    has 
    been 
    spent 
    right 

    Verse 2

    child 
    in 
    South 
    Ohio 

    A man 
    in 
    Northern 
    Maine 

    He took 
    his 
    dream 

    To 
    the 
    end 
    of 
    the 
    world 

    And 
    he 
    brought 
    it 
    home 
    again 

    Verse 3
    Here 
    he 
    met 
    his 
    sweet 
    Rebeckah 

    Here he 
    came 
    to 
    make 
    his 
    stand 

    In 
    a house 
    he 
    built 
    in 
    the 
    piney 
    woods 

    Where 
    the 
    ocean 
    meet
    the 
    land 

    Verse 4
    And 
    it's 
    hey-ho, 
    steady 
    steady 
    as 
    you 
    go 

    Sing 
    for 
    the 
    love 
    of 
    the 
    land 

    Hey-ho, 
    blessed 
    blessed

    hand 

    Verse 5

    Oh 
    his 
    hair 
    is 
    rough 
    and 
    curly 

    And 
    his 
    legs 
    they 
    reach 
    the 
    ground 

    And 
    his 
    eyes 
    are 
    full 
    of 
    liv
    ing 

    And 
    his 
    back 
    is 
    broad 
    and 
    brown 

    And 
    his 
    heart 
    is 
    sure 
    and 
    stub
    born 

    And 
    his 
    pride's 
    too 
    strong 

    to 
    bend 

    And somewhere 
    in 
    his 
    life 

    He 
    found 
    the 
    time 
    to 
    be 
    my 
    friend 

    Verse 6
    And 
    it's 
    hey-ho, 
    steady 
    steady 
    as 
    you 
    go 

    Sing 
    for 
    the 
    love 
    of 
    the 
    land 

    Hey-ho, 
    blessed 
    blessed 
    is 
    the home 

    Born 
    of 
    the 
    carpenter's 
    hand

    • 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.
