If you should go to Ontario to the town of Ballinafad|At the General Store they can tell ya more|About the phone call they once had|When they heard the man say tell the band|From Nashville I did call|And hold on tight I'll be there tonight|To play the ball at the Ballinafad Hall||Now the word got around from town to town till a thousand tickets were sold|To see the star with a great big car from Nashville they were told|And the local band got a great big hand when the walked into the hall|But the crowd looked high and low||For the guy who made the telephone call||Then through the door with a rush and a roar|Came Sam the furnace man|With a fiddle case and big red face and he jumped upon the stand|I'll have to state I'm a little bit late but I hope you got my call|With an ol' straw hat he grinned like a cat when he bouced that

fiddle like a ball||Now about that car with a Nashville star the band was never told|But after the pause and the one for the cause|The mystery did unfold|From the General Store they knew the score|When Sam walked in the Hall|But he couldn't have been in Nashville when he made that telephone call||Now Sam took a bow as he laughed out loud|An he said I'll have you know|There's a little place called Nashville here in old Ontario||And there my truck got stuck in the muck and I thought I'd better call|And tell the band I'll be on hand|When they play the Ballinafad Ball||Said Sam my truck got stuck in the muck|But tonight I'm tellin' you all|I just come down from Nashville town|Toplay the Ballinafad Ball||I just come down from Nashville town|Toplay the Ballinafad Ball||Ya'll come back now ya' hear||

  • 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.
