    Verse 1
    Well, 
    killed 
    man 
    in 
    Birmingham 

    hit 
    him 
    with 
    tire 
    iron 

    He 
    did 
    not 
    move 
    and 
    do 
    not 
    give 
    damn 


    I've 
    been 
    working 
    here 
    like 
    slavin' 
    mule 

    Sucking 
    the 
    earth 
    of 
    dry 
    crude 

    Looking 
    for 
    way 
    out 
    of 
    it 
    all 


    Cops 
    are 
    coming 
    can 
    feel 
    em' 
    here 

    My 
    back 
    is 
    crawling 
    with 
    standing 
    hair 

    Wouldn't 
    mind 
    to 
    see 
    few 
    pigs 
    fall 


    Chorus 1
    So 
    take 
    me 
    down 
    to 
    the 
    river 

    My 
    blood 
    all 
    on 
    the 
    floor 

    'Cause 
    don't 
    know 
    if 
    can 
    carry 
    this 
    weight 

    much 
    longer 
    an
    y
    more 

    Take 
    me 
    up 
    the 
    mountain 

    On 
    cloud 
    bound 
    for 
    the 
    sky 

    Don't 
    go 
    prayin' 
    for 
    me 
    because 

    to
    night 
    I'm 
    prepared 
    to 
    die

    Well,

    Birmingham 

    That 
    boy

    tombstone 
    would 
    say 

    Would

    of 
    my 
    good 
    or 
    just 

    e- 
    vil 
    in 
    my

    The 
    dust 
    has 
    not 
    settled 

    from 
    the 
    boys 
    that 
    busted 
    in 

    And 
    am 
    not 
    bad 
    man 

    but 
    there's

    in 
    my 
    skin

    • 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.
