    Verse 1
    Front 
    porch 
    sittin' 

    in 
    an 
    old 
    rockin' 
    chair 

    The 
    sun 
    is 
    hot 
    in the 
    Texas 
    sky 

    Garden 
    growin' 
    clothes 

    out 
    on the 
    line 

    Dusty 
    road 
    when 
    a car 
    goes 
    by 

    Verse 2

    Story 
    tellin' 
    of 
    days 
    long 
    ago 

    And the 
    only 
    place 
    she'd 

    ever 
    been 

    Singin' 
    softly 
    this 
    world 
    is 

    not 
    my 
    home 

    Memories 
    take 
    me 
    back 
    again 

    Verse 3

    When 
    was 
    young 
    and 

    Grandma 
    wasn't 
    old 

    When 
    she 
    guided 
    me 
    as 
    watched 
    life 
    unfold 

    Anything 
    we 
    didn't 
    have 
    we 

    didn't 
    really 
    need 
    to 
    hold 

    When 
    was 
    young 
    and Grandma 

    Interlude 1
    wasn't 
    old 



    Verse 4
    She'd 
    throw 
    party 
    and 
    all 

    of her 
    friends 

    Would 
    gather 
    around 

    the quilting 
    frames 

    They'd 
    always 
    call 
    out 
    for me 

    to come 
    inside 

    And 
    give 
    me 
    nickels 
    and 
    dimes 
    to sing 

    Verse 5

    It 
    makes 
    me 
    happy 
    that I 

    can 
    still 
    go 
    back

    My 
    memories 
    are 
    so 
    clear 

    Of 
    how 
    It 
    used 
    to 
    be 
    when 

    never 
    dreamed 

    Of 
    ever 
    lookin' 
    back 
    from 
    here 

    Verse 6

    When 
    was 
    young 
    and Grandma 

    wasn't 
    old 

    When 
    she 
    guided 
    me 
    as 
    watched 
    life 
    unfold 

    Anything 
    we 
    didn't 
    have 
    we 

    didn't 
    really 
    need 
    to 
    hold 

    When 
    was 
    young 
    and 

    Grandma 
    wasn't 
    old 

    When 
    was 
    young 
    and 

    Grandma 
    wasn't 
    old

    • 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.
