On the 14th day of April in 1935,
D

G
A

there struck the worst of dust storms
D

that ever filled the sky.
G
D
A
D

The radio reported we listened with alarm
G

To the wild and windy actions
A
D

of that great mysterious storm.
G

From Denver, Colorado,
D
A
D

they said it blew so strong

They thought that they could hold out
A

but they didn't know how long
D
G
A
D

From Oklahoma City to
A
D

the Colorado line
G
D

Dakota and Nebraska
A
D

to the lazy Rio Grande
G
D

In old Dodge City, Kansas,
A
D

the dust had rung their nail

And a few old comrades
A
D

sleeping on top of Old Foothill
G
D

And now the Kirk and Clovis
A
D

and all New Mexico,

They said it was the blackest
A
D

that ever they had saw.
G
D

You could see that dust storm coming,
A

the cloud looked death like black,
D

And through our mighty nation
A
D

it left a terrible track,
G
D

Our family they was huddled
A
D

into their old boom shacks,

And the children they were crying
A
D

as it whistled through the cracks,
G
D

And the children they were huddled
A

into their little room
D

we thought it was our judgment
A
D

we thought it was our doom
G
D

the storm took place at sundown
A
D

it lasted through the night

when we went out next morning
A
D

we saw a terrible sight
G
A

When we outside our windows,
D
A
D

where wheat fields once had grown,

Was now a rippling ocean
A
D

of dust the wind had blown.
G
A
D

It covered up our fences,
A
D

it covered up our barns,

It covered up our tractors
A

in this wild mysterious storm.
D
G
D

We loaded our jalopies
A
D

and piled our families in

We rattled down that highway
G
A

to never come back again
D

  • 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.
