    D

    In the town of Tipton, Georgia,
    G
    D

    on a hot and dusty day
    Bm

    You could see the heat coming
    A

    off the ground
    D

    Up the street a man came running,
    G
    D

    stumbling on his way
    C

    And he shouted that the gospel sang
    G
    D
    G

    is coming to our town
    F

    Hallelujah,
    C
    D

    the gospel singer is coming
    G
    F
    C
    D

    Hallelujah, the gospel singer is coming

    He was born in Tipton, Georgia
    G

    With a voice as pure as gold
    D
    Bm
    A

    And his hair was golden as the sun
    D

    Drink and wo men were his friends
    G

    But the people did not know
    D
    C

    That he did not feel the
    G
    D

    songs he sung
    G
    F
    C

    Hallelujah! The gospel
    D

    singer is coming
    G
    F

    Hallelujah! Ooh, yeah, yeah,
    C
    D

    the gospel singer is a -comin'

    In a tent, a thick tarpaulin,
    G
    D

    in a pasture near the town
    Bm
    A

    The people came and waited all day long
    D

    There were some who could not walk,
    G

    and some who could not see
    D

    And it was believed
    C

    that he couldn't help
    G
    D

    them with his songs
    G
    F

    But the singer, he had grown tired
    C

    of the life that he had lived
    D
    C

    And to the rich and poor, sick and crippled,
    G
    D

    he looked at them and said
    G
    F

    I cannot kill your youth,
    C

    and I cannot make you see
    D
    C

    For I've loved your wo men,
    G
    D

    and I sang to you for money

    In the town of Tipton, Georgia,
    G
    D

    the sun was a -risin'
    Bm
    A

    But not a soul was seen out on the street
    G

    But some had gathered in the pasture
    F
    C

    I was staring silently
    D
    C

    at the shadow of the singer
    G
    D
    G

    Near the tall and lonesome pine tree
    F
    C

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    D
    G
    F
    C

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
    D
    G

    Hallelujah
    F
    C
    D
    G
    F
    C
    D
    G

    Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    F
    C
    D

    Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

    Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah

    • 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.”
