    Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough 
    Mary 
    (Yeah, that's 
    me) 

    Tough 
    Mary 
    is 
    tough 

    Verse 2
    The 
    boys 
    would 
    come 
    from 
    miles 
    around, 

    with 
    presents 
    every 
    day; 

    But 
    when 
    they'd 
    call 
    on 
    Mary, 

    this 
    is 
    what 
    she'd 
    say: 

    Don't 
    bring 
    me 
    Verse 3
    poses, 

    when 
    it's 
    shoes 
    need; 

    (Tough Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough 
    Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary) 

    Don't 
    bring 
    me 
    flowers; don't 

    bring 
    me the 
    sea 

    (Tough Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough 
    Mary 
    is 
    tough) 

    Just 
    bring 
    me 
    diamonds, 

    that'll 
    suit 
    me 
    fine; 

    (Tough 
    Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough Mary, Tough Mary) 

    And I'll 
    love 
    you 
    forever, 

    and 
    you'll 
    be 
    mine 

    (Tough Mary,

    Mary 
    is tough!) 

    Verse 4
    Well, Mary, 
    she's 
    very 
    pretty 
    girl; I 

    guess 
    she 
    was 
    born 
    that 
    way; 

    But 
    whenever 
    they 
    would 
    tell 
    her 
    that, 

    this 
    is 
    what 
    she'd 
    say: 

    Don't 
    bring 
    me 
    Verse 5
    poses, 

    when 
    it's shoes 
    need;

    Mary, 

    Tough 
    Mary, Tough 
    Mary) 

    Don't 
    bring 
    me 
    flowers; don't 

    bring 
    me 
    the sea 

    (Tough Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough 
    Mary 
    is tough) 

    Come 
    on and 
    bring 
    me 
    some 
    dia
    monds, 

    that'll 
    suit 
    me 
    fine; 

    (Tough 
    Mary, Tough 
    Mary, 

    Tough Mary, Tough 
    Mary) 

    And I'll 
    love 
    you 
    forever, 

    and 
    you'll 
    be mine 

    (Tough Mary, 
    Tough 
    Mary,

    Mary 
    is 
    tough!)

    • 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.
