    Step 
    inside 

    my 
    tent, she 
    said, 

    I'd 
    like to 
    read you 
    a 
    poem. 

    Leave a 
    dollar in 
    the 
    jar, 

    this 
    won't take 
    very long. 

    Leave the 
    fairground 
    noise behind, 

    close your 
    eyes, 
    re
    lax your 
    mind. 

    I'll 
    tell you 
    if you 
    should quit 
    now, 

    or 
    if you 
    should go 
    on. 

    Then 
    I 
    said, now 

    what do you 
    see? 

    She said, 
    deedle -dee 
    -dum, 

    deedle -dee 
    -dee 

    Where 
    will I 
    go? 

    What will I 
    be? 

    Deedle -dee 
    -dum, 
    deedle -dee 
    -dee 

    She 
    threw some 
    sawdust 
    in the 
    air, 

    her 
    hands 
    began to 
    shake 

    She 
    told me 
    the town 
    where I was 
    born, 

    she 
    almost 
    knew the 
    date 

    She 
    lit a 
    candle with 
    her 
    eyes, 

    and 
    then she 
    made 
    the 
    table rise 

    She 
    took the 
    door from 
    the 
    jar, 

    and 
    then she 
    guessed my 
    weight 

    Then 
    I 
    said, now 
    what do 
    you see? 

    She said, 
    diddly 
    dum, 
    diddly 
    dee 

    You're 
    so 
    old, 
    you're so 
    wise, 

    diddly 
    dum, 
    diddly 
    die 

    Give 
    me a 
    sign, 
    tell it to 
    me, 

    diddly 
    dum, 
    diddly 
    dee 

    Then 
    she 
    said most 
    quietly, 

    ah, diddly 
    dum, 
    diddly 
    dee 

    When 
    you 
    were a 
    child at 
    school, 

    they 
    taught you 
    quite a 
    lot. 

    You were 
    told when 
    you should 
    speak 

    an
    d when 
    you should 
    not. 

    You were 
    taught to 
    read and 
    write, 

    to 
    take your 
    pills and 
    so on 
    at 
    night. 

    A little 
    knowledge 
    serves 
    you well, 

    but the 
    golden 
    rule does 
    not. 

    Then 
    I said, 
    now what do 
    you see? 

    She said, 
    diddly 
    -dum, 
    diddly 
    -dee 

    Where 
    will I 
    go? 

    What will I 
    be? 

    Diddly 
    -dum, 
    diddly 
    -dee 

    Then 
    when 
    I came 
    home that 
    night 

    to 
    lie awake 
    in 
    bed 

    I 
    thought of 
    that old 
    gypsy 

    and 
    the 
    words that 
    she had 
    said 

    And 
    now I 
    say, 
    would 
    you respect? 

    The 
    more we 
    learn, 
    the 
    worse we 
    get 

    So 
    if you 
    feel you've 
    no regrets, 

    go 
    have your 
    fortune 
    read 

    Then 
    I 
    said, now 
    what do you 
    see? 

    She said, 
    diddly 
    -dum, 
    diddly 
    -dee 

    You 
    look so 
    old, 
    you look so 
    wise, 

    diddly 
    -dum, 
    diddly 
    -die 

    Give me a 
    sign, 
    tell it to 
    me, 

    diddly 
    -dum, 
    diddly 
    -dee 

    Where 
    will I 
    go? 

    What will I 
    be? 

    Give 
    me a 
    sign, 
    tell it to 
    me 

    Where 
    will I 
    go? 

    What will I 
    be?

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
