    put 
    your iPhones 
    down 

    We're 
    going 
    down 
    to 
    the

    Take 
    a 
    good 
    look

    it's 
    like 
    church 
    to 
    me 

    It 
    sets 
    my 
    soul 
    free 



    There's 
    a 
    man 
    needs 
    a 
    woman, 

    and 
    a 
    woman 
    needs 
    a 
    man 

    Parents 
    love 
    their 
    children, 

    it's 
    part 
    of 

    God's 
    big 
    plan 

    Part 
    of 

    God's 
    big 
    plan 

    A 
    natural 
    circle, 
    part 
    of 

    God's 
    big 
    plan 

    From 
    the 
    seed 
    to 
    the 
    soil 

    From 
    the 
    root 
    to 
    the 
    stem 

    From 
    the 
    bud 
    to 
    the 
    flower 

    It 
    does 
    it 
    all 
    again 

    And 
    does 
    it 
    all 
    again

      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 🙂

      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.
