    • Verse 1
    Said the 
    mom
    ma to the 
    baby 
    in the corn 

    You 
    are my first 
    born 

    You shall here on 
    in be known 

    as The Spotlight 
    Kid 

    And 
    the mornin' 
    cry 
    of the rooster 

    The baby 
    lay 
    alone 

    And 
    the old 
    cow in 
    the 
    green grass 

    Shed white 
    tears 
    in the 
    red 

    hot sun

    And The 
    Spotlight 
    Kid stood 

    under the moon 
    that evenin' 

    Givin' 
    her 
    alibis 
    and eatin' 
    her 

    a la

    And 
    the green 
    frogs 
    croakin' 

    around 
    his abode 

    And 
    the 
    mud cat 
    pond 
    by the 
    old 
    willow 
    road 



    All night 
    the village 
    waited and The Spotlight 

    Kid

    She 
    was up on 
    the mountain

    Momma 
    still knew 
    she was the

    She 
    was 
    the one 
    who

      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.
