    Frankie 
    an

    d 
    Johnny 
    were 
    lovers, 

    oh, 
    how 
    they 
    could 
    love 

    They 
    swore 
    to 
    be 
    true 
    to 
    each 
    other, 

    just 
    as 
    true 
    as 
    the 
    stars 
    above 

    He 
    was 
    her 
    man, 

    but 
    he'd 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 

    so 
    wrong 

    Well, 
    Johnny 
    said, 
    I've 
    gotta 
    go 
    now, 

    I 
    won't 
    be 
    very 
    long 

    Don't 
    you 
    wait 
    up 
    for 
    me, 
    honey 

    Don't 
    you 
    worry 
    while 
    I'm 
    gone 

    He 
    was 
    her 
    man 

    But 
    he 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong 

    Well, 
    Frankie 
    went 
    down 

    to 
    the 
    bar 
    room 

    Ordered 
    up 
    a 
    big 
    glass 
    of 
    beer 

    Said, 
    tell 
    me 
    the 
    truth, 
    Mr. 
    Bartender 

    Has 
    my 
    Johnny 
    Man 
    been 

    here? 
    know 
    he's 
    my 
    man 

    He 
    been 
    doin' 
    me 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong 

    He 
    said, 
    I 
    ain't 
    gonna 

    tell 
    you 
    no 
    stories, 

    ain't 
    gonna 
    tell 
    you 
    no 
    lies, 

    your 
    Johnny 
    came 
    by 
    about 
    an 
    hour 
    ago, 

    with 
    that 
    no 
    good 
    Nellie 
    Bly, 

    I 
    know 
    he's 
    your 
    man, 

    he's 
    been 
    doing 
    you 
    wrong, 

    so 
    wrong 

    Well 
    Frankie 
    drank 
    up 
    all 
    her 
    beer, 


    ordered 
    up 
    a 
    big 
    glass 
    of 
    gin, 

    said 
    ain't 
    it 
    a 
    shame 

    Mr. 
    Bartender, 
    I've 
    taken 
    to 
    drinking 
    again 

    on 
    account 
    of 
    my 
    man 

    Well, 
    Frankie 
    went 
    out 
    the 
    dark 
    alley 

    She 
    didn't 
    go 
    there 
    for 
    fun 

    Under 
    her 
    sky 
    blue 
    kimono 

    She 
    had 
    a 
    great 
    big 
    .44 
    gun

    Through 
    using 
    her 
    man 

    Well, 
    Frankie 
    went 

    down 
    to 
    the 
    hotel 

    Looked 
    in 
    a 
    window 
    so 
    high 

    There 
    she 
    saw 
    her 
    Johnny 

    Messin' 
    round 
    with 
    Nellie 
    Bly 

    He 
    was 
    her 
    man 

    But 
    he'd 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 

    so 
    wrong 

    Well, 
    Johnny 
    saw 
    Frankie 
    comin' 

    Out 
    the 
    back 
    door 
    he 
    did 
    scoot 

    But 
    Frankie 
    took 
    aim 
    with 
    her 
    pistol 

    And 
    the 
    gun 
    went 
    rooty 
    -toot 
    -toot 

    He 
    was 
    her 
    man 

    But 
    he'd 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong 

    Now, 
    it 
    wasn't 
    murder 

    in 
    the 
    second 
    degree 

    It 
    wasn't 
    murder 
    in 
    the 
    third, 

    that 
    wo
    man 
    just 
    dropped 
    her 
    man, 

    like 
    a 
    hundred 
    drops 
    of 
    bird, 

    he 
    was 
    her 
    man. 

    But 
    it 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong, 

    well 
    you 
    better 
    roll 
    out 
    those 

    rubber 
    -tired 
    carriages, 

    roll 
    out 
    those 
    rubber 
    -tired 
    hacks. 

    They're 
    taking 
    poor 
    Johnny 

    to 
    that 
    graveyard, 

    they'll 
    never 
    bring 
    him 
    back, 

    he 
    was 
    her 
    man. 

    But 
    he's 
    done 
    her 
    wrong, 
    so 
    wrong, 

    so 
    wrong

      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

      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

      "

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
