    Verse 1
    Sweet 
    young 
    thing 
    of six
    teen 

    Thought 
    I'd 
    step 
    out 
    one 
    night 

    longed 
    to 
    get 
    the 
    thrilling 

    life 
    I've 
    missed 

    met 
    youth 

    bit 
    uncouth 

    Al
    though 
    he 
    seemed 
    al
    right 

    knew 
    him 
    by 
    the 
    moment 

    when 
    we 
    kissed 

    Verse 2

    Then 
    got 
    home, 

    next 
    day with 
    swollen 
    head 

    My 
    girl
    friend 
    asked 
    if 

    I'd 
    had 
    fun 
    said, 

    "Was 
    drunk? 

    Was 
    he 
    handsome? 

    Did 
    momma 
    give 
    me 
    hell? 

    Did 
    get 
    thrill? 

    Am 
    full 
    of 
    quiver

    Was 
    he 
    rough? 

    Did 
    care? 

    Am 
    glad 
    fell? 

    Every 
    time 
    think 
    of 
    him 
    do 
    shiver? 

    Was 
    he 
    hot? 

    And 
    was 
    I? 

    And 
    would 
    he 
    stand 
    for 
    maybe? 

    He 
    would 
    not? 

    Did 
    lie? 

    Does 
    he 
    still 
    think 
    I'm 
    baby? 

    If 
    was, 
    am 
    still? 

    Do 
    care? 

    Don't 
    be 
    silly 

    Was 
    drunk? 

    Was 
    he 
    handsome? 

    And 
    did 
    momma 
    give 
    me 
    hell? 

    Interlude 1









    Verse 3
    Was 
    drunk? 

    Was 
    he 
    handsome? 

    Did 
    momma 
    give 
    me 
    hell? 

    With 
    his 
    hands 
    loose 
    as 
    no 
    refusin' 

    Did 
    he 
    fight? 

    Was 
    blue? 

    Al
    most 
    shamed 
    to 
    tell 

    And 
    don't 
    know 
    yet 
    the 

    system 
    he 
    was 
    usin' 

    Verse 4
    Well 
    said, 
    stop, 
    please, 
    behave! 

    Well 
    what's 
    the 
    use 
    of 
    breathin'? 

    He 
    said, 
    give 

    So 
    gave 

    After 
    all, 
    what 
    was 
    savin'? 

    Am 
    glad? 

    Holy 
    gee, 

    Have 
    had 
    fun, 
    you're 
    askin' 
    me? 

    Was 
    drunk? 

    Was 
    he 
    handsome? 

    And 
    did 
    momma 
    give 
    me 
    hell?"

    • 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.
