    Verse 1
    look 
    for 
    trouble 
    and 
    found 
    it, 
    son 

    Straight 
    down 
    the 
    barrel 
    of 
    lawman's 
    gun 

    tried 
    to 
    run 
    but 
    don't 
    think 
    can 

    "You 
    make 
    one 
    move 

    and 
    you're 
    dead 
    man, 
    friend"

    baby? 

    He 
    slipped 
    the 
    handcuffs 
    on 

    behind 
    my 
    back 

    Then 
    left 
    me 
    reeling 
    on 
    steel 
    rail 
    rack 

    They 
    got 
    'em 
    all 
    in 
    the 
    jailhouse, 
    baby 

    Ain't 
    living

    baby? 

    Verse 2
    Grew 
    up 
    in 
    Houston 
    off 
    the 
    Wayside 
    Drive 

    Son 
    of 
    carhop 
    at 
    some 
    all 
    night 
    dive 

    Dad 
    drove 
    stock 
    car 
    to 
    an 
    early 
    death 

    All 
    remember

    • 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.
