  • Intro 1



    Verse 1
    In the southern 
    part 
    of Texas, 

    east 
    and 
    west 
    of 
    El Paso 

    Where 
    the 
    mighty 
    Franklin 
    Mountains 

    guard 
    the 
    trail 
    to 
    Mexico 

    There's 
    a new 
    made 
    widow 
    crying 

    and 
    hearse 
    a-rolling slow 

    slow 

    And I guess 
    that 
    Devil's 
    passed 

    this 
    way 
    again 

    Verse 2
    There's a 
    lathered 
    Sorrel 
    Stallion 

    running 
    through 
    the Joshua 
    Trees 

    young 
    man 
    in the saddle 
    with 

    his 
    coat 
    tails 
    in 
    the breeze 

    Got 
    a six 
    gun 
    on 
    his right 
    hip 
    and 

    rifle 
    at 
    his knee 

    And he's 
    dealing 
    in 
    a game 

    that 
    he can't 
    win 

    Verse 3
    Poor 
    Billy 
    Bonney, 
    you're 
    only 
    twenty 
    one 

    Pat 
    Gar
    rett's 
    got 
    your 
    name 

    on 
    every 
    bullet 
    in his 
    gun 

    Each 
    notch 
    you carved 
    on your 
    six 
    guns, 

    got 
    bloody 
    tale 
    to tell 

    You're 
    mile 
    ahead 
    of Garrett 
    and a step 

    outside 
    of Hell 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    Them 
    fancy 
    clothes 
    you're wearing 

    and 
    the wo
    men 
    in 
    your 
    bed 

    Can't 
    take 
    away 
    the faces 
    of 

    the men 
    that you 
    left 
    dead 

    As you 
    ride 
    across 
    the badlands 

    with a price 
    upon 
    your 
    head 

    Now 
    that 
    wheel 
    or fortune 
    starts 
    to 
    turn 

    Verse 5
    Your 
    reputation's 
    grown 
    'til it's 

    the biggest 
    in the 
    land 

    And there 
    ain't 
    a lot 
    of 
    people 
    left 

    who 
    wanna 
    call 
    your 
    hand 

    And I 
    guess 
    you go 
    down 
    shooting, 

    just 
    like 
    all 
    branded 
    men 

    When you shake 
    hands 
    with the 
    Devil, 

    you 
    get 
    burned 

    Verse 6
    Poor 
    Billy 
    Bonney, 
    you're 
    only 
    twenty 
    one 

    Pat 
    Gar
    rett's 
    got 
    your 
    name 

    on 
    every 
    bullet 
    in his 
    gun 

    Each 
    notch 
    you carved 
    on your 
    six 
    guns, 

    got a 
    bloody 
    tale 
    to tell 

    You're 
    mile 
    ahead 
    of Garrett 
    and a 
    step 
    out

    side 
    of Hell 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 7
    Poor 
    Billy 
    Bonney, 
    you're 
    only 
    twenty 
    one 

    Pat 
    Gar
    rett's 
    got 
    your 
    name 

    on 
    every 
    bul
    let 
    in his 
    gun 

    Each 
    notch 
    you carved 
    on your 
    six 
    guns, 

    got 
    bloody 
    tale 
    to tell 

    You're 
    mile 
    ahead 
    of Garrett 
    and a step 
    outside 
    of Hell

    • 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.
