  • Verse 1
    A
    D

    We were heading on home,
    Em

    Diesel and me
    G
    D

    Down an old gravel road,
    A
    Bm

    way out in the country
    A

    Tuckered out after working
    Em

    the fields all day
    D
    G
    A

    When all of a sudden, off like a shot
    D

    That dog took off running,
    Bm

    barking his head off
    G

    Wherever he went,
    Em

    he went like there was hell to pay
    A
    Verse 2

    D

    So lickety-split,
    Em

    I I crashed through the fields
    G
    Em

    Chasing after that hound and
    A

    I was hot on his heels
    Bm

    When we both went over the
    A
    Em

    edge of a deep ravine
    D
    G

    As I crawled up the bank,
    A
    D

    cold and soaked to the bone

    A glint caught my eye from
    Bm

    the mud where it shone
    A
    G
    Em

    Something was buried there,

    alongside the stream
    A
    Verse 3

    D

    Now the middle of a field is
    A

    a pretty odd place
    Bm

    To find some kind of trunk
    G

    or a chest or a crate
    C
    G

    But buried under the earth,
    A
    Bm
    A

    I saw a corner exposed
    D
    A

    No, there wasn't a map or a note or a key
    D
    G
    Bm
    A

    It was clearly forgotten, just waiting for me
    Em
    G

    Like I was supposed to find it there,
    Interlude 1

    right under my nose
    Asus4
    A
    D
    G

    C
    Bsus4
    B

    Verse 4
    B
    E
    F#m

    It had laid there for years, deep in the dirt
    A
    E

    So I dug it out and wiped
    B

    my hands on my shirt
    C#m

    I pried up the lid and ex
    E
    B
    F#m

    citedly peered inside
    E
    A

    And what I saw was a sight
    B
    Em

    to behold
    E

    'Cause that tattered old trunk
    C#m

    was crammed full of gold
    B
    F#m

    My eyes bugged out,
    E
    A
    B

    it was enough to make a grown man cry
    Verse 5
    E
    Bsus4
    B

    Big golden bricks with a shimmery sheen
    C#m

    They were a staggering sight
    E
    A

    to a poor boy like me
    D
    A

    And right then and there I knew what
    Bsus4
    B
    A
    B

    I had to do
    E
    B

    So with a smile, I sold what little I had
    E
    A

    I gave my pots and my pans
    C#m

    to my mo m and my dad
    B
    F#m
    A

    And then I bought that field 'cause it was my dream
    B

    come true

    Verse 6
    Gb

    And then, full of joy,
    Abm

    I said goodbye to my shack
    Cb

    It wasn't much of a home,
    Db

    so I never looked back
    D#m
    B

    And I never questioned the
    C#
    G#m
    D#m
    G#m

    choice I happily made
    F#
    B

    I said I need that field,
    C#

    whatever it takes
    F#
    D#m

    You might call it foolish, but I'd call it faith
    C#
    G#m
    F#

    Trusting in God so gladly,
    B
    C#

    you can't hardly wait
    Verse 7
    F#

    And that's how I learned
    C#

    how a rich fella counts
    D#m

    His treasure in heaven,
    F#
    B
    F#

    not under the ground

    'Cause betting the farm
    C#

    is well worth the risk
    F#
    B
    D#m
    C#

    To carefully keep such a beautiful gift
    G#m
    E

    That's yours forever,
    G#m
    B

    it's a pretty good deal
    C#
    Verse 8
    B
    C#

    F#

    There's a couple of things
    C#

    more precious than gold
    B

    One is your heart and the
    D#m
    C#

    other's your soul
    G#m

    And you've got something unique
    B

    that nobody can steal
    C#
    Verse 9

    F#

    It's a fable, you see,
    C#

    and the moral is this
    F#
    B

    Your heart's with your treasure,
    C#

    wherever it is
    G#m
    B

    And trust me, when you dig,
    Bb
    D#m
    C#

    a treasure will be revealed
    G#m
    B
    F#

    And you never know what could be buried in the middle of a field

    • 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.
