    good, 

    she'll 
    let 
    me 
    go 
    to school 
    in August 

    Daddy

    won
    der 
    why 
    my

    will 
    jump 
    in puddles, 

    laugh 
    in 
    church 
    and 
    marry 
    my 
    mum 

    And 
    I'll 
    let 
    my 
    daddy 
    do 
    the 

    washing- 
    up

    Verse 5
    If 
    I close 
    one 
    eye, 

    the 
    people 
    on 
    that 
    side 
    can't 
    see 
    me 

    I get 
    headaches

    the morn
    ing 
    and 

    I rode

    of 
    jesus 
    and 

    asked 
    him 
    if 
    he'd 
    make 
    me five

    make 
    me 
    five 

    When I'm

    • 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.
