Has it really got a team of

So you can tell them apart.

the cows'll moo in the clover.

a whispered song,

Ella, I have a good mind not to take her
C#
Ain't said I was go ing.
Ain't asked you.

Where'd you get such a rig at?

I bet he's went and a

rig over to Claremore.

Thinking I'd go with him.

So you know about it.
Spent all his money hiring a rig.
Now he ain't got nobody

Made the whole thing up out

Oh, get off of the place, you!
D
Aunt Ellard,
make him get himself out of here.
Tell him he lied.
Oh, making up a few purties
ain't again no lord I know of.
Don't you wish there was such a rig,
though?
Then you could go to the play party
and do a hoedown till morning
if you was a -minded.
And then when you was all wore out,
Cm
I'd lift you onto the surrey
D
C#
and jump up alongside of you.

And we'd just pint the horses home.

I can just picture the whole thing.

I can see the stars getting blurry

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.”
