    • Verse 1
    Ah 
    whis
    key!!! 

    Last 
    night 
    we 
    had 
    a 
    date, 

    I stayed 
    out 
    late 

    I 
    bought 
    round 
    after 
    round 

    And just 
    for 
    you 
    I 
    played 
    the 
    fool 

    Yes, 
    I 
    was 
    quite 
    the 
    clown 

    Words 
    were 
    spoken, 
    hearts 
    were 
    broken 

    But 
    now 
    I 
    hope 
    you 
    see 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 
    not 
    me 

    I 
    didn't 
    mean 
    to make 
    a 
    scene 

    It's 
    really 
    not 
    my 
    style 

    I raised 
    some 
    Cain 
    and 
    called 
    some 
    names 

    I 
    guess 
    I 
    got 
    myself 
    a 
    little 
    wild 

    If 
    I 
    brag 
    too 
    loud 
    and 
    act 
    too 
    proud 

    Don't 
    blame 
    old 
    Jerry 
    Lee 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 
    not 
    me 

    Verse 2

    I 
    had 
    myself 
    a 
    little 
    splash 

    I said 
    "You 
    no 
    good 
    piece 
    of trash" 

    Shut 
    my 
    mouth 
    all 
    through 
    the 
    night 

    Oh Lord, 
    my 
    bark's 
    bigger 
    than 
    my 
    b 

    If 
    lies 
    were 
    told, 
    if 
    I 
    was 
    bold 

    Don't 
    take 
    it 
    personally 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 

    not 
    me 

    Interlude 1
    Play 
    it, son! 



    Verse 3
    At 
    the 
    bar 
    I 
    bucked 
    and 
    roared 

    I 
    picked 
    a 
    fight 
    and 
    I 
    got 
    floored 

    I had 
    a 
    shot, 
    got 
    plumb 
    insane 

    Took 
    everybody's 
    name 
    in 
    vain 

    But 
    all 
    that 
    stuff 
    is 
    just 
    a 
    bluff 

    I 
    wouldn't 
    hurt 
    a 
    flea 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talkin', 
    not 
    me 


    Verse 4
    Here 
    we go, 
    baby! 

    Hang 
    onto 
    my 
    shirt 
    tail! 



    I 
    wanna 
    hear 
    some 
    fiddle, 
    son, 

    play 
    it! 


    The 
    old 
    devil 
    makes 
    me 
    do 
    some 
    things 

    It 
    takes 
    a lot 
    of 
    nerve 

    How 
    could 
    I 
    sass 
    a girl 
    like 
    you 

    You're 
    more 
    than 
    I 
    deserve 

    Don't 
    you 
    get 
    upset 
    and 
    please 
    accept 

    Old 
    Killer's 
    apology 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 
    not 
    me 


    Verse 5
    End 
    up 
    with 
    some 
    more 
    moonshine 

    My 
    mouth 
    was 
    workin' 
    overtime 

    Just 
    let 
    off 
    a 
    little 
    steam 

    I 
    ain't 
    the 
    Killer 
    that 
    I 
    seem 

    Some
    times 
    I'm 
    strange 

    but 
    I 
    might 
    change 

    You got 
    my 
    guaran
    tee 

    It 
    was 
    the 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 

    not 
    me 

    Yes 
    that 
    old 
    whis
    key 
    talk
    in', 
    not 
    me

      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

      "

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
