Verse 1
Am

On her way to work one morning

Down the path along side the lake

A tender hearted woman saw
E

a poor half frozen snake
Am

His pretty colored skin had been

all frosted with the dew

"Oh well," she cried,
E

"I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"

"Take me in oh tender woman

Take me in, for heaven's sake

Take me in oh tender woman",
E
Am

sighed the snake
Verse 2
Am

She wrapped him up all cozy

in a curvature of silk

And then laid him by the fireside with
E

some honey and some milk
Am

Now she hur ried home from work

that night as soon as she arrived

She found that pretty snake she'd
E
Am

taking in had been revived

"Take me in, oh tender woman

Take me in, for heaven's sake

Take me in oh tender woman",
E
Am

sighed the snake

Now she clutched him to her bosom,

"You're so beautiful," she cried

"But if I hadn't brought you in by
F

now you might have died"

Now she stroked his pretty skin and

then she kissed and held him tight

But instead of saying thanks,

Take me in, for heaven's sake

Take me in oh tender woman",

sighed the snake

  • 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.
