Herd Of Turtles chords by 
Grandpa Jones 
N/A•
Key: A major•BPM: 120
Verse 1
G
As I was walking down the road
I met a gal so cute,
I sighted up to her right there,
A
D
she was such a beaut.
G
I asked that gal to marry me,
she slapped me on the cheek,
then she took off like a herd of turtles
a -pullin' for the creek.
She took off like a herded turd
of the bull in the father creek
C
G
Get out of here, you country jake,
A
D
you look just like a freak
G
Now I never can get me a gal,
C
I guess I am too meek
G
They all take off like a herded turd
of the bull in the father creek
Last year I tried to raise a crop,
thought I'd make me some dough
To buy crop prices up so high
A
D
and my pocketbook so low
G
Two crippled mules hitched to a plow,
old Tommy and old Zeke
But they took off like a herded turtle
pulling for the creek
They took off like a herded turtle
C
pulling for the creek
G
They plowed more ground
in fifteen minutes
A
D
than a tractor could in a week
G
I guess they're still a -runnin',
C
unless they got too weak,
G
Cause they took off like a herded turd,
A
D
G
C
G
a -pullin' for the creek
The other day I took my banjo
with me into town
I picked a tune on the corner of the square,
A
the big crowd gathered round
D
G
Then I tried to sell my rattlesnake oil
It'll cure anyone that's sick
But they took off like a herd of turtles
A -pullin' for the creek
They took off like a herd of turtles
C
A -pullin' for the creek
G
I stood there without a sail
A
D
And the tears run down my cheek
G
Now I can't seem to make a dime
C
And I'm gettin' awful weak
G
I think I'll join that herd of turtles
And go jump in the creek

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

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
