I got lonesomitis

Give me a ride to Dallas,

I'll be in New Orleans on my own

I know they got some people down there

that will welcome me on home

Well, I won't tell you I'm

If you take me down to New Orleans,

baby, you won't have to

feed me there

They've got some people

who don't mind givin'

me food and money

But now I'm in despair

Somebody got soul enough

to treat me right

Now when I'm down and out

I won't tell you I got to go

Because it's been years in here on out

And I got teardrop pneumonia

And a heartache of arthritis

Verse 2
Am

Now if you ride me down to New Orleans

I'll walk you home down there

All I need is a little help from your mama

I need a ride just for myself

Take a step up by the boys in the beach

Tell them stuff about the moonlight

and the trees

All I need is a little lickin' and jazzin'

Gonna give it just what I please

I've got the tear -drive pneumonia
G

Got the heartache arthritis
F
E

I got a soul -searching symptom,
G
Am

baby, of a lonesome mind
Outro 1

Eh, eh, eh, eh.

  • 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.
