    Verse 1
    Well, I 
    worked 

    all summer, couldn't 
    save a 
    cent 

    I gave 
    all my 
    money 
    to the 
    government 

    I don't 
    know quite 
    how it got 
    spent 

    But the 
    banks 
    a- comin' for my 
    deed, 

    boys 

    Man 
    at the mill can't 
    see, 
    boys 

    Let me get 
    my feed for 
    free, 
    boys 

    Ain't that 
    the way it 
    is 

    Verse 2
    Well, 
    I cut 
    out down 
    braver 
    road 

    traded my 
    stock for 
    V8 Ford 

    Danced 
    for town down 

    on the floor 
    boards 

    And the 
    title 
    owed down to 

    me, boys 

    That gasoline 
    ain't 
    free, 
    boys 

    Just 
    guzzling 
    out my 
    knee 
    bone? 

    Ain't that 
    the way it 
    is 


    Verse 3

    Well, I 
    met me 
    a woman 

    down in Saint 
    Paul 

    I even met 
    her 
    mother and 
    met her 
    pal 

    The 
    brother told 
    me that he'd bust 
    my 
    jaw 

    talked to 
    his sister 
    again, 
    boys 

    Told me 
    I couldn't 
    win 
    though 

    There's 
    blood running 

    down my 
    chin 
    now 

    Ain't that 
    the way it 
    is 

    Verse 4
    Well, I 
    slept all 
    night 
    on the 
    barroom 
    floor 

    And 
    woke up this 
    morning, my 

    head was 
    sore 

    Pockets 
    empty, but 
    want some 
    more 

    Now, the 
    bar man's 
    got my 
    car, 

    boys 

    Tales worth 
    more by 
    far, 
    boys 

    As I 
    leave her 
    down at 
    the 
    bar 
    now 

    Ain't 
    that 
    the way it 
    is 


    Verse 5

    Well, I 
    hitched me 
    a ride 
    on the 
    way back 
    home 

    got me 
    a job on 
    family 
    farm 

    Times 
    are hard here, 
    but I can't 
    roll 

    And 
    I ain't got 
    nothing 
    more, 
    boys 

    And I 
    owe that 
    company 

    store, boys 

    Gold's looking 
    good for 
    sure, 
    boys 

    Ain't that 
    the way 
    it is 

    Verse 6
    Well, I 
    worked 
    all summer couldn't 

    save a 
    cent 

    I gave 
    all my 
    money to 
    the 
    government 

    I don't 
    know quite 
    how it got 
    spent 

    But the 
    banks 
    a- comin' for my 
    deed, 

    boys 

    Man 
    at the mill can't 
    see, 
    boys 

    Let me get 
    my feed for 
    free, 

    boys 

    But ain't that 
    the way it 
    is

    • 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.
