  • Verse 1
    In 
    the 
    town 
    of 
    Tipton, 
    Georgia, 

    on 
    hot 
    and dusty 
    day 

    You 
    could 
    see 
    the 
    heat coming 

    off 
    the ground 

    Up 
    the 
    street 
    man 
    came 
    running, 

    stum
    bling 
    on 
    his 
    way 

    And 
    he 
    shouted 
    that 
    the gos
    pel 
    sang 

    is 
    coming 
    to 
    our 
    town 

    Halle
    lujah, 

    the 
    gospel 
    singer 
    is 
    com
    ing 

    Hallelujah, 
    the 
    gospel 
    singer 
    is 
    com
    ing 

    He 
    was 
    born 
    in 
    Tipton, 
    Georgia 

    With 
    voice 
    as 
    pure 
    as gold 

    And 
    his 
    hair 
    was 
    golden 
    as 
    the 
    sun 

    Drink 
    and 
    wo
    men 
    were 
    his friends 

    But 
    the 
    people 
    did 
    not 
    know 

    That 
    he 
    did 
    not 
    feel 
    the 

    songs 
    he 
    sung 

    Hallelu
    jah! 
    The 
    gospel 

    singer 
    is 
    com
    ing 

    Hallelujah! 
    Ooh, 
    yeah, 
    yeah, 

    the 
    gospel 
    singer 
    is 
    -comin' 

    In 
    a tent, 
    a thick 
    tarpaulin, 

    in 
    pasture 
    near 
    the town 

    The 
    people 
    came 
    and 
    waited 
    all 
    day long 

    There 
    were 
    some 
    who 
    could not 
    walk, 

    and 
    some 
    who 
    could not 
    see 

    And 
    it was 
    believed 

    that 
    he couldn't 
    help 

    them with 
    his song

    But 
    the 
    sing
    er, 
    he 
    had 
    grown 
    tired 

    of 
    the 
    life 
    that 
    he had 
    lived 

    And 
    to the 
    rich 
    and 
    poor, 
    sick 
    and 
    crippled, 

    he 
    looked 
    at 
    them 
    and 
    said 

    cannot 
    kill 
    your 
    youth, 

    and 
    cannot 
    make 
    you see 

    For 
    I've 
    loved 
    your 
    wo
    men, 

    and I 
    sang 
    to 
    you 
    for money 

    In 
    the 
    town 
    of 
    Tipton, 
    Georgia, 

    the 
    sun 
    was 
    -risin' 

    But 
    not 
    a soul 
    was 
    seen 
    out 
    on 
    the street 

    But 
    some 
    had 
    gathered 
    in 
    the pasture 

    was 
    staring 
    silently 

    at 
    the 
    shadow 
    of 
    the sing
    er 

    Near 
    the 
    tall 
    and 
    lonesome 
    pine 
    tree 

    Halle
    lujah, 
    Hallelu
    jah, 
    Hallelujah 

    Hallelu
    jah, 
    Hallelu
    jah, 

    Hallelu
    jah 

    Hallelujah! 
    Hallelujah! 
    Hallelujah! 
    Hallelujah! 
    Hallelujah! 

    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.
