The More You Pay easy guitar chords by 
Don Mclean
N/A•
Verse 1
Am
D
The auctioneer said,
Dm
D
I'm not through yet,
C
Am
Here's a horse the likes
D
of which you've never seen,
G
C
And the straw hats in the sun,
Am
Em
with a face beneath each one,
C
Shown doubtful and the
G
Am
auctioneer got mean.
Do you think that you can find
F
E
a horse like this every day?
Am
I don't think there's
F
any better on this earth,
Am
And the more you pay,
E
Am
the more it's worth.
D
Then out she came,
Verse 2
a snow- white mare,
C
Am
Prancin' and a dan cin'
D
in the silver sun,
G
C
They watched her from behind,
Am
Em
as she did her bump and grind,
C
Walkin' naked,
G
Am
sad and graceful for their fun.
Oh how I wished I could afford
F
E
that lady painted white,
Am
F
Am
A queen with high nobility of birth,
E
Am
But the more you pay,
E
Am
the more it's worth.
D
My pockets hung
Verse 3
with empty blues,
C
Am
Si lent heels were standin'
D
on my growin' pains,
G
C
My bid was not too bad,
Am
Em
two bits was all I had,
C
And the stable boy
G
Am
just handed me the reins.
Well the gallery went wild,
F
E
and the auctioneer half smiled,
Am
F
What we don't sell we shoot or give away,
E
Am
'Cause the more you pay,
E
Am
the more it's worth.
Verse 4
Am
Bm
Em
And where was the boy,
Bm
Em
who rode on her back,
Bm
Em
With his arms holding tight round
Am
A
Am
her neck?
Bm
Em
How tightly he clung,
Bm
G
Em
When they both were young,
C
Am
And fate had not let this
Em
poor girl be so
Am
Disgraced.

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
