    Verse 1
    Not 
    a hot 
    cup 
    of coffee, 

    nor 
    a cold 
    glass 
    of 
    tea 

    Ever 
    crossed 
    your 
    lips 
    in 
    my 
    company 

    Straight 
    bourbon 
    whiskey 

    was 
    all 
    we'd 
    abide 

    So let's 
    don't hold 
    back 
    now, 

    we've got 
    nothing 
    to 
    hide 

    Verse 2

    So 
    much 
    we 
    savored 
    yet 

    so much 
    we missed 

    You 
    know 
    never 
    meant 

    you 
    to 
    see 
    me 
    like 
    this 

    Just 
    a faint 
    distant 
    flicker 
    from 

    the 
    last 
    of the storm 

    You 
    know a taste 
    of 
    that 
    liquor 

    could do 
    me 
    no 
    harm 

    Verse 3
    Light 
    me 
    candle, 
    light 
    me 
    fire 

    Come 
    and sit 
    by 
    the 
    window 

    with 
    the 
    shades 
    drawn 

    To the 
    best 
    of 
    in
    tentions 

    and the 
    worst 
    of 
    de
    sires 

    Leave 
    by 
    the 
    Gulf 
    Road 
    in 
    the 
    gray 
    dawn 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Take a 
    short 
    handled 
    shovel, 

    take 
    a long 
    handled 
    hoe 

    Cover 
    my 
    bones 
    when 

    the west 
    wind 
    blows 

    Smooth 
    it 
    off 
    even 
    and 

    pack 
    it down 
    hard 

    Now, 
    no 
    more 
    be 
    here 
    but I'll 
    never 
    be 
    far 

    I'll 
    no 
    more 
    be 
    here 

    but I'll 
    never 
    be 
    far 

    Verse 5
    Light 
    me a 
    candle, 
    light 
    me 
    fire 

    Come 
    and sit 
    by 
    the 
    window 

    with 
    the 
    shades 
    drawn 

    To the 
    best 
    of 
    in
    tentions 

    and the 
    worst 
    of 
    de
    sires 

    Leave 
    by 
    the 
    Gulf 
    Road 

    in the 
    gray 
    dawn 

    Leave 
    by 
    the Gulf 
    Road 
    in 
    the 
    gray 
    dawn

    • 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.
