Verse 1
G
C
G

Now I taught the weeping willow

how to cry, cry, cry

And I showed the clouds
A
D

out the cover of a clear blue sky
G

And the tears I cried for that woman
C

are gonna flood your big river
G
D
G

And I'm gonna sit right here until I die

I met her accidentally in St. Paul,

Minnesota

And it tore me up every time
A
D

I heard her drawl, southern drawl
G

Then I hurt my dream,

went back downstream,
C

cavortin' in Davenport
C#dim
G

And I followed you big
D
G

river when you called

Then you took me to St. Louis,

and laid her on down the river

Afraid, I said she'd been here,
A
D

but she's gone, gone, gone
G

I found her trail in Memphis,
C

but she'd just walked up the bluff
G

She raised a few eyebrows,
D
G
C
G

and then she went on down alone

Now won't you bat it on

down by Baton Rouge,

river queen rollin' on

Take that woman on down to New Orleans,
A
D

New Orleans
G

Go on, I've had enough,
C
C#dim

dump my blues down in the Gulf
C
G
D

She loves you big, the river,
G

more than me

Now I taught the weepin' willow

how to cry, cry, cry

And I showed the clouds
A
D

out the cover of a clear blue sky
G

And the tears I cried for that woman

are gonna flood you big river

  • 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.
