Verse 1
G
I was thumbing a
ride one Saturday morning
C
Out of Nashville toting my sack
D
I lent my car to a
Girl that lived in Chattanooga
G
And she hadn't brought it back
She was drinking pretty heavy when
I let her have it
C
I hope she knows it was only a loan
D
There's no telling what I might have
Told her back at the time
G
But that old car was also my home
About five miles out I was
Getting kind of tired
C
Sweating hard and feeling kind of weak
D
I woke up with no cigarettes
And nothing to drink
G
And I hadn't had a bite to eat
D
G
My nerves were so quick I couldn't
D
Tell where I was shaking
G
C
Then a set of brakes sang my song
D
Some fellow stuck his head
out a '57 Chevy
G
And hollered, hey man come on
I told them I was heading
down to Chattanooga
C
They said, hop in we're going there too
D
And the way they took off in a cloud of smoke
G
I still can't believe it was true
They had their windows down and I
Was sitting in the back
C
With my tongue still hung in my throat
D
He was hitting just about
a hundred and ten
And he said
Dm
D
G
Man what do you think of this boat
Well there was two
semis struggling up ahead
C
One trying to pass the other
D
They had the whole road blocked so
Dm
D
He passed them on the right
G
And let me tell you something brother
I was so nervous that
my teeth was clicking
C
There wasn't any way
my head could think
D
Then the one that was sitting
On the passenger side turned and said
G
Hey man you want something to drink
I just shook my head
because I couldn't talk
C
He said okay and then he said cheers
D
The fools were drinking whiskey and wine
G
And chasing it down with beer
Well I started sweating
that old sticky sweat
C
And I know I was white as a sheep
D
Then one turned the radio on wide open
G
And said, hey man check that beat
By the time we reached the top of Monteagle
C
I thought I heard a rumbling sound
D
And then I saw a sign that said falling rock
G
And right there I was floorboard bound
I was rolling and squirming
On the old floorboard
C
Too weak to sit or stand
D
And then the driver said we're
Doing a hundred and twenty
G
Look, here man no hands
I got up enough nerve to
raise up and look
C
And by now there couldn't be no surprise
Dm
D
But his hair was blowing all over my face
G
And dandruff blew in both eyes
He never did drive on the right or left
C
He just kept on riding that line
D
I rubbed my eyes and saw the
prettiest thing
G
The Chattanooga city limit sign
He slowed down and I said
C
Mister, please I'd like to
Get off right here
D
He said, aw ride on into town with us
We're gonna go down and pick
G
Up some more beer i said, please
Once more and he stopped the car
C
And then he handed me my sack
D
Said they'd look for me on the road later on
G
In case I wanted to catch a ride back
I got out and sat down by
The side of the road
C
Feeling sick and looking mighty pale
D
I don't re member anything
much after that
G
But next morning I woke up in jail
I didn't know anybody in my cell
C
And didn't want to ask why was there
D
But they all kept grinning
And turning their heads
G
And it was more than my head could bear
So I called the jailer and I
Asked him to tell me
C
Why I was there if he'd be so kind
D
He said for stopping the traffic while
I was hugging and kissing

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

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
