    Well, 
    me 
    and Billy 
    the 
    Kid 

    never 
    got 
    along. 

    I 
    didn't 
    like 
    the way 
    he 
    cocked 
    his 
    hat 

    and 
    he 
    wore 
    his gun 
    all 
    wrong. 

    But we 
    had 
    the same 
    girlfriend, 

    and 
    he never 
    forgot 
    it. 

    She 
    had 
    a cute 
    little 
    chihuahua, 

    till 
    one 
    day 
    he 
    up 
    and shot 
    it. 

    He 
    rode 
    the 
    hard 
    country 

    down 
    the 
    New Mexico 
    line 

    He 
    had 
    a 
    silver 
    pocket 
    watch 

    that 
    he 
    never 
    did 
    wind 

    He 
    crippled 
    a piano 
    player 

    for 
    playin' 
    his 
    favorite 
    song 

    No, 
    me 
    and 
    Billy 
    the Kid 

    never 
    got 
    along 

    Yeah, 
    me and 
    Billy 
    the 
    Kid 

    never 
    got 
    along 

    They 
    didn't 
    like 
    the way 

    he 
    buckled 
    his 
    belt 

    And he 
    wore 
    his 
    gun 
    all 
    wrong 

    He 
    was 
    bad 
    to the 
    bone 

    All 
    hopped 
    up 
    on 
    speed 

    I 
    would 
    have left 
    him 
    alone 

    It 
    wasn't 
    for 
    that 
    senorita 

    He 
    gave 
    herself 
    her 

    And 
    her 
    paid 
    her 
    hotel 
    bill 

    But 
    it 
    was 
    me 
    she loved 

    She 
    said 
    she 
    always 
    will 

    I'd 
    always 
    go 
    and 
    see 
    her 

    When 
    Bill 
    was 
    gone 

    No, 
    me 
    and 
    Beth 
    the kid 

    We 
    never 
    got 
    along 

    Yeah, 
    me and 
    Billy 
    the 
    kid 

    never 
    got 
    along 

    I 
    didn't 
    like 
    the way 
    he 
    tied 
    his 
    shoes 

    and he 
    wore 
    his 
    gun 
    all 
    wrong 

    One 
    day 
    I 
    said to 
    Billy, 

    I 
    got this 
    foolproof 

    We'll 
    rob 
    Wells 
    Fargo, 

    it's 
    bustin' 
    at the 
    seams 

    I 
    admit 
    that 
    I 
    frame 
    it, 

    but 
    I 
    don't 
    feel 
    bad 

    Cause 
    the 
    way 
    I 
    was 
    livin', 

    it 
    was 
    drivin' 
    me 
    mad 

    Billy 
    reached 
    for 
    his gun, 

    but 
    his 
    gun 
    was 
    on 
    wrong 

    No 
    me 
    and 
    Billy 
    the Kid, 

    we 
    never 
    got 
    along 

    Now 
    me 
    and 
    Billy 
    the Kid 

    never 
    got 
    along 

    But 
    I 
    did 
    like the 
    way 

    he swayed 
    in the 
    wind 

    While I 
    played 
    him his 
    favorite 
    song 

    Now 
    my 
    baby 
    sings 
    harmony 

    with 
    me 
    to 
    La 
    Cucaracha 

    She 
    winds 
    her 
    silver 
    pocket 
    watch 

    and 
    pets 
    her new 
    Chihuahua 

    I 
    moved 
    into 
    the 
    hotel, 

    I 
    got 
    a room 
    with 
    a shower 

    We 
    lay 
    and 
    listen to 
    that 
    watch 

    tick 
    hour 
    after 
    hour 

    Out
    side 
    I 
    hear 
    the wind 

    blowin' 
    oh 
    so 
    strong 

    No, 
    me 
    and 
    Billy 
    the Kid 

    never 
    got 
    along 

    We 
    never 
    got 
    along, 
    we 
    never 
    got 
    along 

    We 
    never 
    got 
    along, 

    Outro 1
    we never 
    got 
    along

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
