    Verse 1
    They 
    picked 
    me 
    up, 

    Put me 
    in 
    the county 
    jail. 

    They 
    picked 
    me up, 

    Put 
    me in the 
    county 
    jail. 

    They 
    wouldn't 
    let 
    my woman 

    Come 
    and post 
    my 
    bail. 

    Verse 2
    Now 
    I'm 
    in 
    prison, 

    I've almost 
    done 
    my 
    time. 

    Now 
    I'm 
    in 
    prison, 

    I've almost 
    done 
    my 
    time. 


    They gave 
    me six 
    months, 

    I had 
    to 
    work 
    out 
    nine. 

    Verse 3
    I 
    know 
    my 
    baby, 

    She's 
    gonna 
    jump 
    and 
    shout. 

    I know 
    my 
    baby, 

    She's 
    gonna 
    jump 
    and 

    shout. 

    When the 
    train 
    comes 
    in 

    And 
    I 
    come 
    walking 
    out
    . 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Take 
    these 
    stripes 
    from around 
    me, 


    Chains 
    from 
    around 
    my 
    legs. 

    Take 
    these 
    stripes 
    from 
    around 
    me, 


    Chains 
    from 
    around 
    my 

    legs. 

    The stripes 
    don't 
    hurt 
    me; 

    The chains 
    could 
    kill 
    me 
    dead.

    • 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.”
