    Verse 1
    Now 
    God 
    made 
    coal 
    for 
    the 
    men 
    who 
    sold 

    their 
    lives 
    to 
    West 
    Van 
    Lear 

    And 
    you 
    keep 
    on 
    diggin' 
    'til 
    you 

    get 
    down 
    there 

    where 
    it's 
    darker 
    than 
    your 
    darkest 
    fears 

    And 
    that 
    woman 
    in 
    the 
    kitchen 

    she 
    keeps 
    on 
    cookin' 

    but 
    she 
    ain't 
    had 
    meat 
    in 
    years 

    Just 
    live 
    off 
    bread, 
    live 
    off 
    hope 

    in 
    pool 
    of 
    million 
    tears 


    Verse 2
    Now 
    let 
    me 
    tell 
    you 
    somethin' 

    'bout 
    the 
    gospel 

    And 
    make 
    sure 
    that 
    you 
    mark 
    it 
    down 

    When 
    God 
    spoke 
    out 
    "Let 
    there 
    be 
    light" 

    He 
    put 
    the 
    first 
    of 
    us 
    in 
    the 
    ground 

    And 
    we'll 
    keep 
    on 
    diggin' 

    'til 
    the 
    comin' 
    of 
    the 
    Lord 

    And 
    Gabriel's 
    trumpet 
    sounds 

    'Cause 
    if 
    you 
    ain't 
    minin' 
    for 
    the 
    company 
    boy 

    There 
    ain't 
    much 
    in 
    this 
    town 


    Chorus 1
    We 
    could've 
    made 
    somethin' 

    of 
    our
    selves 
    out 
    there 

    if 
    we'd 
    listened 
    to 
    the 
    folks 
    that 
    knew 

    That 
    coal 
    is 
    gonna 
    bury 
    you 

    Solo 1





    Verse 3
    Now 
    it's 
    darker 
    than 
    dungeon 

    And 
    it's 
    deeper 
    than 
    well 

    So 
    sometimes 
    im
    agine 

    That 
    I'm 
    gettin' 
    pretty 
    close 
    to 
    hell 

    And 
    in 
    my 
    darkest 
    hour 

    cry 
    out 
    to 
    the 
    Lord 

    He 
    says 
    "Keep 
    on 
    minin' 
    boy 

    'Cause 
    that's 
    why 
    you 
    were 
    born" 


    Chorus 2
    Well 
    we 
    could've 
    made 
    somethin' 

    of 
    our
    selves 
    out 
    there 

    if 
    we'd 
    listened 
    to 
    the 
    folks 
    that 
    knew 

    That 
    coal 

    Outro 1
    is 
    gonna 
    bury 
    you

    • 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.
