    Sent 

    him away 
    in 
    '38, California 
    state, 

    the case 
    was 
    tried 

    Hen
    ri Young 
    was an 
    orphan son, 

    came 
    undone 
    when his sis
    ter 
    cried 

    His time 
    he'd 
    serve, 
    he'd stole 
    for 
    her 

    Free 
    men 
    until, 
    five 
    dollar 
    bill 

    Verse 2
    But the gro

    had a postal 
    door, 

    federal 
    law 
    had to 
    in
    terve
    ne 

    And 
    un
    derneath 
    all the disbelief 
    was a petty 

    thief 
    who was just 
    17 

    He'd come 
    at last, 
    to 
    Alcatraz 

    He'd come 
    so 
    far, 

    with a weary 
    heart 

    Verse 3
    And as sure 
    as 
    my name 
    is 
    Henri 
    Young, 

    I 
    never meant 
    to hurt 
    no 
    one 

    I'd take 
    back 
    everything 
    I stole, 

    if God 
    would come 
    and save 
    my 
    soul 

    And then 
    they'll 
    hear these 
    cries 

    An innocent 
    man 
    behind 

    these 
    eyes 

    Verse 4
    Well, he stayed 
    up late 
    for the prison 
    break, 


    And he tried 
    to escape, 

    but the plan 
    was blown 

    And he begged 
    and prayed 
    but the 

    Warden 
    came, 
    threw 
    him away, 

    down 
    in 
    the hole 

    For 
    19 days, 
    he 
    was meant 

    to stay 

    But he disappeared 
    for three 

    long 
    years 

    Verse 5
    Well they headed 
    down 
    to the 
    underground, 


    Where they let 
    him out 
    to return 

    to 
    his room 

    And when morn
    ing came 
    he was 

    never the same 

    And he stabbed 
    McCain with the handle 

    of the spoon 

    From days 
    gone 
    past, 

    to 
    Alcatraz 

    From a man 
    who steals, 

    to a man 
    who 
    kill
    s 

    Verse 6
    And as sure 
    as 
    my name 
    is 
    Henri 
    Young, 

    I 
    never 
    meant

    I'd

    everything 
    I stole, 

    if God 
    would come 
    and 
    save 
    my 
    soul 

    And then 
    they'll hear 
    these 
    cries 

    An 
    innocent

    who came 

    undone 
    with murder 
    in the first 

    Death 
    by 
    gas, 
    in

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
