    Verse 2
    And 
    his cabin 
    fallin' down 


    You looked

    And you walked 
    a ragged 
    mile 

    You looked 
    for work 

    and money 

    And you walked

    That 
    they don't 
    know how 

    Verse 3
    to smile 


    Your baby's 
    eyes 
    look crazy 

    They're 
    a- tuggin' 
    at 

    your sleeve 

    Your baby's 
    eyes 
    look crazy 

    They're

    the floor 
    and wonder 
    why 

    Verse 4
    With 
    every breath 
    you breathe 


    The rats

    it got 
    your mare 

    The rats

    If there's 
    anyone 
    that knows 

    Verse 5
    Is there anyone 
    that 
    cares? 


    You prayed 
    to 
    the Lord 
    above 

    Oh, please 
    send you 
    a friend 

    You prayed 
    to 
    the Lord 
    above 

    Oh, please 
    send you 
    a friend 

    Your empty 
    pockets 
    tell 
    ya 

    Verse 6
    That you 
    ain't a- got 
    no friend 


    Your babies 
    are crying 
    louder 

    It's pounding 
    on 
    your brain 

    Your babies 
    are crying

    are stabbin' 
    you 

    Verse 7
    Like the dirty 
    drivin' 
    rain 


    Your grass 
    it is turning 
    black 

    There's 
    no water 
    in your 
    well 

    Your grass 
    is turning 
    black 

    There's 
    no water 
    in 
    your well 

    You spent 
    your last 
    lone dollar 

    Verse 8
    On 
    seven 
    shotgun 
    shells 


    Way 
    out 
    in the wilderness 

    A cold 
    coyote 
    calls 

    Way 
    out 
    in the wilderness 

    A cold 
    coyote 
    calls 

    Your eyes 
    fix on 
    the shotgun 

    Verse 9
    That's hangin' 
    on 
    the wall 


    Your brain 
    is a- bleedin' 

    And 
    your legs 
    can't seem 
    to stand 

    Your brain 
    is a- bleedin' 

    And 
    your legs 
    can't seem 
    to stand 

    Your eyes 
    fix 
    on the shotgun 


    That you're holdin' 
    in 

    Verse 10
    your hand 


    There's seven 
    breezes 
    a- blowin' 

    All 
    around 
    the cabin 
    door 

    There's seven 
    breezes 
    a- blowin' 

    All 
    around 
    the cabin 
    door 

    Seven 
    shots 
    ring 
    out 

    Like 
    the ocean's 
    pounding 

    Interlude 1
    roar

    There's seven 
    people 
    dead 

    On a South 
    Dakota 
    farm 

    There's seven 
    people 
    dead 

    On a South 
    Dakota 
    farm 

    Somewheres 
    in the distance 

    There's 
    seven 
    new people 
    born

    • 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.
