  • Intro 1



    was 
    fifteen 
    Verse 1

    when 
    my 
    daddy 
    died 

    Mama 
    worked 
    two 
    jobs 
    just 
    to 
    get 
    by 

    Seemed 
    like 
    blessing 
    when 

    Harley 
    came 
    around 

    So 
    she 
    took 
    his 
    name, 

    but 
    had 
    my 
    doubts 

    Didn't 
    take 
    long 
    for 
    his 
    drinking 
    ways 
    to 

    start 
    showing 
    up 
    on 
    mama's 
    face 

    One 
    violent 
    night, 
    hiding 
    under 
    my 
    bed 

    I swore 
    that 
    he 
    wouldn't 
    see 

    another 
    sun
    set 

    Next 
    day 
    fol
    lowed 
    him 

    down 
    to 
    the ri
    verbank 

    knew 
    one 
    of 
    us 
    wouldn't 
    walk 
    away 

    Verse 2
    I might 
    have 
    had 
    a plan, 
    but 
    he 
    didn't 
    know 
    it 

    might 
    have 
    been 
    scared, 

    but 
    didn't 
    show 
    it 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 

    river 
    and 
    me 

    With 
    the current 
    and 
    the 
    rocks 

    it 
    could 
    have 
    been 
    misty 

    He 
    might 
    have 
    been 
    sober, 

    but 
    brought 
    the 
    whiskey 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 
    river 
    and 
    me 

    Verse 3

    I walked 
    up 
    to 
    him, 
    and 
    I said 
    his 
    name 

    Just 
    so 
    he 
    could 
    see 
    the 

    look 
    on 
    my 
    face 

    We stood 
    eye 
    to 
    eye 
    and 
    toe 
    to 
    toe 

    When 
    told 
    him 
    that 
    he 
    wasn't 

    gonna 
    come 
    back 
    home 

    He 
    raised 
    his 
    fist 
    to 
    me, 
    but 
    did
    n't 
    flinch 

    said, 
    "I 
    ain't 
    your 
    son, 

    you 
    son 
    of 
    bitch." 

    Verse 4
    I might 
    have 
    had 
    a knife 
    in 
    my 
    back 
    pocket 

    might 
    have 
    pulled 
    it 
    out 

    before 
    he 
    saw 
    it 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 
    river 
    and 
    me 

    I might 
    have 
    had 
    gun, 
    but 
    didn't 
    fire 
    it 

    He 
    might 
    have 
    tried 
    to 
    yell, 

    but 
    kept 
    him 
    quiet 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 

    river 
    and 
    me 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 
    river 
    and 
    me 

    Interlude 1








    Verse 5
    Sher
    iff 
    came 
    knocking 

    on 
    our 
    front 
    door 

    They said 
    they 
    found 
    his 

    body 
    by 
    the 
    reservoir 

    Bottle 
    in 
    his shirt 
    and 
    liquor 
    in 
    his 
    blood 

    He 
    must 
    have 
    fallen 
    in 
    the river 

    and he 
    never 
    came 
    up 

    Verse 6
    There 
    might 
    have been 
    blood, 

    but they 
    never 
    saw 
    it 

    Just 
    a little 
    mud 
    on 
    the living 

    room carpet 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 
    river 
    and 
    me 

    Well, 
    after 
    what he 
    done, 

    there 
    ain't 
    no wonder 

    can't remember 
    how 
    long 

    I held 
    him under 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 

    river 
    and 
    me 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 

    river 
    and 
    me 

    That's 
    all 
    between 
    the 

    river 
    and 
    me 

    That's 
    all 

    Outro 1
    That's 
    all

    • 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.
