    Verse 1
    struck 
    the trail 
    in sev

    enty- 
    nine 

    The 
    herd 
    strung 
    out 
    behind 
    me 

    As I 
    jogged 
    along 
    my 
    mind 
    went 
    back

    hind 

    Verse 2
    If 
    I ever 
    get 
    off 
    the trail, 
    boys 

    And the 
    Indians 
    don't 
    find 
    me 

    I'll 
    make 
    my 
    way 
    straight

    Verse 4
    The 
    wind 
    did 
    blow 
    and 
    the 
    rain 
    did 
    flow 

    The 
    hail 
    did 
    fall 
    and 
    blind 
    me 

    And I 
    thought 
    of that 
    gal, 

    that 
    sweet 
    little 
    gal 

    That 
    gal 
    I'd

    Verse 5
    She 
    wrote 
    ahead 
    to a 
    place 
    said 

    And 
    was 
    glad 
    to 
    find 
    it 

    She 
    says "I'm 
    true, 

    when 
    you 
    get 
    through 

    Ride 
    back 
    and 
    you 
    will 
    find 
    me"

    true 
    little 
    gal 

    The

    left 
    be

    me 

    That 
    sweet 
    little 
    gal, 
    that 
    pretty 
    little 
    gal 

    The 
    gal 
    left 
    be
    hind 
    me 

    Verse 7

    When 
    we 
    sold 
    out 
    took 
    the train 

    knew 
    that 
    would 
    find 
    her 

    When 
    got 
    back, 
    we 
    had 
    a smack 

    And that's 
    no 
    gol- 
    darned 
    liar

    • 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.
