    Verse 2
    One 
    day 
    a mother

    to 
    prison 

    To 
    see 
    an 
    erring 
    but 
    precious 
    son 

    She 
    told 
    the warden 
    how 

    much she 
    loved 
    him 

    It 
    did 
    not 
    matter 
    what 
    he 
    had 
    done 

    Verse 3
    She 
    did 
    not 
    bring 
    to him 
    a parole 
    or 
    pardon 

    She 
    brought 
    no 
    sil
    ver, 
    no 
    pomp 
    or 
    style 

    It 
    was 
    halo 
    bright 
    sent 
    down 

    from 
    heaven's 
    light 

    The 
    sweetest 
    gift, 

    mother's 
    smile 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    She 
    left 
    a smile 
    you 
    can 
    remember 

    She's 
    gone 
    to 
    heaven 
    from 

    heartaches 
    free 

    Those 
    walls 
    around 
    you 

    could 
    never 
    change 
    her 

    You 
    were 
    her 
    baby 
    and 
    e'er 
    will be 

    Verse 5
    She 
    did 
    not 
    bring to 
    him 
    parole 
    or 
    pardon 

    She 
    brought 
    no 
    silver, 
    no 
    pomp 
    or 
    style 

    It 
    was 
    halo 
    bright 
    sent 
    down 

    from 
    heaven's 
    light 

    The 
    sweetest 
    gift, a 

    mother's 
    smile

    • 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.
