    Verse 1
    Now the 
    pale 
    moon's shining 
    on the 
    fields 
    below 

    The 
    folks 
    are crooning 
    songs 

    soft 
    and low 

    You needn't 
    tell 
    me, boy, 

    because 
    I know 

    When 
    it's sleepy 
    time 
    down 
    south 

    Verse 2
    Soft 
    wind blowing 
    through the 

    pinewood 
    trees 

    The 
    folks 
    down there 
    live 

    life 
    of ease 

    When 
    old mammy 
    falls 

    on 
    her knees 

    When 
    it's 
    sleepy 
    time 
    down 
    south 

    Verse 3
    Steamboats 
    on 
    the river 

    a-coming, a-going 

    Splashing Splashing 
    Splashing 

    the 
    night 
    away 

    You 
    hear those 
    ban
    jos 
    ringing, 

    all the 
    people all 
    singing 

    They 
    dance 
    'til 
    the 
    break 
    of day, 

    oh 

    Verse 4

    Dear 
    old southland 
    with his 

    dreamy 
    songs 

    Take 
    me back 
    where 
    belong 

    Right 
    here 
    in 
    my 
    mammy's 

    arms 

    When it's sleepy 
    time 
    down 
    south 

    Verse 5
    Dear old 
    southland with 
    his 

    dreamy 
    songs 

    Take me 
    back 
    where I 
    be
    long 

    Right 
    here 
    in 
    my mammy's arms 

    When 
    it's sleepy 
    time, 

    sleepy 
    time, down south 

    Verse 6
    Yes, 
    Lord

    • 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.
