    Haa, 
    haa, 
    haa, 

    Haa, 
    haa, 
    haa, 

    On 
    a 
    hill 
    far 
    away, 

    stood 
    an 
    old 
    rugged 
    cross 

    The 
    em
    blem 
    of 
    suffering 
    and 
    shame 

    And 
    I 
    love 
    that 
    old 
    cross 

    where 
    the 
    dearest 
    and 
    best 

    For 
    a 
    world 
    of 
    lost 
    sinners 
    was 
    slain 

    So 
    I'll 
    cherish 
    thee, 
    O 
    rugged 
    cross, 

    Till 
    my 
    trophies 
    at 
    last 
    I 
    lay 
    down. 

    I 
    will cling 
    to 
    the 
    old 
    rugged 
    cross 

    An
    d 
    ex
    change 
    it 

    someday 
    for 
    a 
    crown. 

    Oh, 
    that 
    old 
    rugged 
    cross, 

    so 
    des
    pised 
    by 
    the 
    world, 

    Has 
    a 
    wondrous 
    attraction 
    for 
    me. 

    For 
    the 
    dear 
    Lamb 
    of 
    God 

    left 
    His 
    glory 
    above 

    To 
    Mary, 
    to 
    poor 
    Calvary. 

    So 
    I'll 
    cherish 
    thee, 

    O 
    crowded 
    cross, 

    Where 
    my 
    troth 
    is 
    at 
    last 
    I 
    may 
    die. 

    I 
    will 
    cling 
    to 
    the 
    old 
    rugged 
    cross 

    an
    d 
    exchange 
    it 

    someday 
    for 
    a 
    crown. 

    Stille 
    Nacht!

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
