    Verse 1
    Dylan 

    I 
    woke 
    up 
    this 
    mornin', 

    there 
    were 
    tears 
    in 
    my 
    bed 

    They 
    killed 
    a man 
    I really 
    loved, 

    shot 
    him 
    the 
    head 

    Lord, 
    Lord, 
    they cut 
    George 

    Jack
    son 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 
    the ground. 

    Verse 2

    Sent 
    him 
    off to pris
    on 
    for 

    a sev
    enty- 
    dol
    lar 
    rob
    bery 

    Closed 
    the 
    door 
    be
    hind 
    him 
    and 

    threw 
    away 
    the 
    key 

    Lord, 
    Lord, 
    they 
    cut 
    George 

    Jack
    son 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 
    the 
    ground. 

    Verse 3

    He 
    wouldn't 
    take 
    shit 
    from 
    no 
    one, 

    he 
    wouldn't 
    bow 
    down 
    or 
    kneel 

    Authorities, 
    they 
    hated 
    him 
    be
    cause 

    he 
    was 
    just 
    too 
    real 

    Lord, 
    Lord, 
    they 
    cut 
    George 

    Jack
    son 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 

    the ground. 

    Verse 4

    Prison 
    guards, 
    they 
    hitted him 
    as 
    they 

    cursed 
    him 
    from 
    above 

    But 
    they 
    were 
    frightened 
    of 
    his 
    power
    , 

    they 
    were scared 
    of 
    his 
    love 

    Lord, 
    Lord, 

    they cut 
    George 
    Jackson 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 
    the ground. 

    Interlude 1




    Verse 5
    Sometimes 
    I 
    think 
    this 
    whole 
    world 

    is one 
    big 
    prison 
    yard 

    Some 
    of 
    us 
    are pris
    oners, 

    the 
    rest 
    of 
    us 
    are 
    guards 

    Lord, 
    Lord, 

    they cut 
    George 
    Jackson 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 
    the ground. 

    Verse 6

    Lord, 
    Lord, 
    they 
    cut 
    George 

    Jack
    son 
    down 

    Lord, 
    they 
    laid 
    him 
    in 
    the 
    ground.

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
