    Verse 1
    Well, I 
    ain't 

    never 
    been 
    an angel 

    I ain't 
    never 
    been 
    called 
    a saint 

    Yeah, 
    I've decorated 
    every 
    bar 
    in town 

    With 
    big 
    red 
    coat 
    of paint 

    But good 
    thing 
    had 
    a good 
    raisin' 

    For 
    all the 
    Hell 
    I've 
    raised 
    since 
    then 

    When 
    that 
    roll 
    is called 
    up 
    yonder 

    know 
    they've 
    gonna 
    let 
    me 
    in 

    Verse 2
    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    tight 
    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    And 
    he ain't lettin' 
    go, 

    he 
    ain't 
    lettin' 
    go 

    The 
    Devil 
    reaches 
    out 
    but 

    he can't 
    grab 
    hold 

    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    And 
    he ain't 
    lettin' 
    go, 

    he 
    ain't lettin' 
    go 

    Might 
    have 
    a little 
    rust 
    on 
    my 
    halo 

    But 
    when I'm 
    gone, 

    I know 
    where 
    I'll go 

    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 

    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    Verse 3

    Now 
    I've been 
    a little 
    more 
    cold 
    beer 

    Than 
    holy 
    water, 
    it's 
    true 

    More 
    Sat
    urday 
    night 
    on 

    an 
    old 
    bar 
    stool 

    Than a 
    Sunday 
    morning 
    pew 

    But 
    even 
    old 
    Hank 
    Williams 

    Fi
    nally 
    saw 
    the light 

    And, 
    oh hallelujah, 
    have 
    too 

    And 
    it ain't 
    just 
    the neon 
    kind 

    Verse 4
    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    tight 
    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    And 
    he 
    ain't lettin' 
    go, 

    he 
    ain't 
    lettin' 
    go 

    The Devil 
    reaches 
    out 
    but he 

    can't 
    grab 
    hold 

    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on 
    my soul 

    And 
    he ain't lettin' 
    go, 

    he 
    ain't lettin' 
    go 

    Might 
    have 
    a little 
    rust 
    on 
    my 
    halo 

    But 
    when I'm 
    gone, 

    I know 
    where 
    I'll go 

    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on 
    my soul, 

    yeah 

    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on my 
    soul, 

    yeah 

    Verse 5

    Whoa 

    got 
    long, 
    long 
    way 
    to go 

    Whoa 

    But 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    there, 
    know 

    Verse 6
    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    And 
    he 
    ain't lettin' 
    go, 

    he 
    ain't lettin' 
    go 

    The 
    Devil 
    reaches 
    out 
    but he 

    can't 
    grab 
    hold 

    'Cause 
    Jesus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip 
    on 
    my 
    soul 

    And 
    he ain't 
    lettin' 
    go

    grip 
    on my 
    soul 

    Je
    sus 
    got 
    a tight 
    grip on my 
    soul

    • 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.
