Verse 1
D

When I was just a kid,
G
D

I'd go to town on Saturday
G
D

And on the street I'd listen to
Bm
E

the old blind fiddler play
A
D

He was close to no one,
G
D

though his life was almost gone
G
D

But to me he was my friend
A
D

and always played such pretty songs
G

People dropped their nickels in his club
D

as they walked by
G
D

Sometimes he would play so sad
E

that I'd just have to cry
A
D

And one day I went to town
G
D

to hear the old man play
G
D

But he was gone and someone said
A
D

the old man passed away
G
D
G
A

And I can still hear him playing
D
G

And when people stopped to listen
A

He would say,
D

God walked beside you all the way
G
D
G
A
D

And I'd listen to the old blind fiddler play

A week or so ago one night
G
D

I had the strangest dream
G
D

I dreamed I went to heaven
E
A

and I heard a million strings
D

And standing there,

I heard the music flow
G
D

from heaven's skies
G
D

And for the first time in my life,
A
D

I saw the color of His eyes
Bm
D

And I can still hear
G
D
G
A

them playing
D
G

And he shook my hand and told me,
A
D

Son, I knew we'd meet again someday
G
A

And once again I heard the old
G
A
D

blind fiddler play

  • 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.
