    Now 
    friend 
    if 
    you'll 
    just 
    listen 
    to 
    me 
    you'll 

    get some 
    good 
    hard 
    earned 
    advice 

    Now I 
    don't 
    aim 
    to meddle 
    in your 
    business 
    I'm 

    just 
    tryin' 
    to save 
    you an 
    aw
    ful 
    price 

    You 
    see 
    these 
    teeth 
    that I 
    ain't 
    got 

    and these 
    knots 
    on 
    my 
    bald 
    head 

    I'll 
    guarantee 
    you 
    boys 
    I 
    didn't 
    get 

    them 
    there 
    a 
    lyin' 
    home 
    in the 
    bed 

    Now 
    take 
    the smart 
    alec 
    in 
    any 
    town 

    of 
    him 
    folks 
    want 
    no part 

    Cause 
    he 
    acts 
    like 
    his 
    head 
    was 
    only 

    made 
    to 
    hold 
    his 
    ears 
    apart 

    Now 
    he 
    might 
    act 
    like 
    what 
    I'm 
    bout 
    to 
    say 
    and 

    my words 
    would 
    prob'ly 
    make 
    him sore 

    But 
    I'm 
    just 
    tryin' 
    to be 
    helpful 
    cause 
    I've 

    been 
    down 
    that 
    road 
    before 

    To bully 
    folks 
    and 
    play 
    mean 
    tricks 

    was 
    once 
    my 
    pride 
    and 
    joy 

    Till 
    one 
    day 
    I 
    was 
    toted 
    home 
    and 
    mama 

    didn't 
    hardly 
    know 
    her 
    little 
    boy 

    My 
    head 
    was swelled 
    up 
    so 
    doggone 
    big 

    I couldn't 
    get 
    it 
    through 
    my 
    front 
    door 

    Now 
    I'm not 
    just 
    talkin' 
    to 
    hear 
    myself 

    I've 
    been 
    down 
    that 
    road 
    be
    fore 

    A little 
    fellow 
    about 
    my 
    size 
    got 

    tired 
    of being 
    puched about 

    So 
    he 
    went 
    to 
    work 
    and 
    when 
    he 
    got 
    thru 

    he'd 
    knocked 
    every 
    one 
    of 
    my teeth 
    out 

    One 
    time 
    too 
    many 
    I'd 
    rubbed 
    him wrong 

    and 
    he evened 
    up 
    the score 

    Now 
    that's 
    what 
    happens 
    when 

    you 
    get 
    too 
    big 
    for 
    your britches 

    And 
    I've 
    been 
    down 
    that 
    road 
    before 

    Now 
    when 
    you 
    get 
    to thinkin' 
    you're 
    really 
    smart 

    there's 
    somebody 
    smarter 
    than 
    you 

    And no 
    matter 
    how 
    much 
    you 
    boast 
    and brag 

    you can 
    still 
    learn 
    a thing 
    or 
    two 

    Go 
    get 
    you 
    some 
    treatments 
    just 
    like 
    I've 

    had 
    and you 
    won't 
    hanker 
    for 
    more 

    I've 
    really 
    learned 
    the 
    meanin' 

    of 
    livin' 
    and lovin' 

    Cause 
    I've 
    been 
    down 
    that 
    road 
    before 

    Now 
    the 
    man 
    that 
    walks 
    this 
    rocky 
    road 

    usually 
    gets 
    just 
    what 
    he de
    serves 

    Cause 
    he's 
    just 
    a helpless 
    servant 

    to 
    a master 
    that 
    he serves 

    Now 
    I've 
    learned 
    to slow 
    my 
    temper 
    down 

    and 
    not 
    to 
    pick 
    no 
    scraps 
    no 
    more 

    Boys 
    it's a 
    lot 
    easier 
    on 
    the 
    head 
    and 
    eyes 
    cause 

    I've 
    been 
    down 
    that 
    road 
    before

      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.
