I guess I should have written that

To let you know that I was coming home
C

I've been gone so many years

Didn't realize you'd ever phone
G

I saw your cattle comin' in for their
D
G

workin' mighty flat and slick
C
D

My sophomore at the service station
G

told me that his wife was off sick

You heard my record on the radio,

well, it's just another song
C

I got a hit recorded,

been out on the market for too long
G

I've got this ring in
D
G

Mexico, it cost me quite a bunch
C

When you're in the business that I'm in,
D
G

people call it putting up a front

I know I lost a little weight,

I guess I'm looking kind of pale
C

You know me better than that,

I swear that I just got out of jail
G

You know we don't call the beer joints,

nightclubs or the places where I work
C

You need a lot of people there,
D
G

though there ain't no chance of getting hurt.

Well, I knew you was going to ask me,

who's the lady that's sleeping in the car?

That's just a girl that works for me

Man, she plays a pretty mean guitar

  • 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.
