Intro 1

Verse 1
C
Em

They came in thinkin' top dollar
F

To that old cotton crop farmer

They knocked on his screen door and he said
C

"Lord, what you need, boys?" And they said

"You know all the others
Em

went and cashed out
F

We got the subdivision all mapped out

It'll sit right here on this land

And you could leave town a rich man"
Pre-chorus 1
G

And he said, "Boys, whatever you're offerin',
F

it won't be enough
Chorus 1
C

'Cause I got a little girl
Em

that used to swing right there
F

I still see her pink bow in her brown hair

She's in the big city, but she still calls home

What's she gonna do
C

if she comes back and we're gone?
Em

And ovеr there, under that whitе oak tree

Beneath the cross is where
F

my best buddy's buried

Lasted thirteen huntin' seasons runnin' strong

Keep your money 'cause a man
Am

can't leave his dog
G

And over there is where I got down
F

on one knee
G
C

You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap"
Verse 2
C

One man smiled and he kinda looked away
Em

The other said,

"Before we go, I gotta know one thing
F

Between the droughts and the floods

through all the years

What in the world got you through?
Chorus 2

How the hell'd you get here?" And he said
C

"That little girl that used to swing
Em

right there
F

I still see her pink bow in her brown hair

Runnin' up after one of them long days
C

A big smile makin' every little worry fade
Em

And over there, under that white oak tree

Beneath the cross,
F

where my best buddy's buried

All them huntin' seasons freezin' in a jon boat

Me and him, double-barrel and a two-stroke
Am
G

And that woman that said 'yes'
F

when I got down on one knee
G
C

Yeah, you can't buy that kind of dirt cheap"
Bridge 1
Am

No, it ain't somethin' you fall into
G

It's somethin' God gives you
F
F

And you hold on to
Chorus 3
C

Just like that little girl

who used to swing right there
Em

I still see her pink bow in her brown hair
F

She's in the big city now,

but she still calls home

She's comin' back next week

and, man, it's been too long
C
Em

And over there, under that white oak tree

Beside the cross,
F

where my best buddy's buried

Lays a puppy posted up in the shade

That woman never could turn away a stray
Am
G

I guess that's why she said 'yes'
F

when I got down on one knee
Am

Oh, long as all this is here,
G
F

why the hell would I ever leave?
G
C

You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap

  • 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.
