    • Verse 1

    There 
    was 

    a man I 
    used to pass 
    on my way 
    into town 

    He 
    was covered 
    in dirt 
    like the 

    world 
    had beat him 
    down 

    I 
    often 
    wondered 
    how he 

    ended 
    up like 
    that 

    So 
    one day, 
    driving home, 

    I 
    pulled over 
    to asked 

    And 
    I said, 
    "Man, 
    where'd 
    it all go 
    Verse 2

    wrong?" 

    And 
    he said, 
    "Son, do 
    you 

    really 
    wanna know? 

    Verse 3
    "My 
    daddy 
    left for 
    another woman, 

    moved off 
    to 
    L.A. 

    My 
    mama fought 
    hard 
    against that 
    can
    cer, 

    she 
    died when 
    I was 
    eight 

    I finished 
    school, my 
    country 

    shipped me 
    off to war 

    When 
    I 
    came 
    home, my 
    whole 

    world didn't 
    love me 
    anymore" 

    It's 
    hard to 
    see all 
    just driving 
    Verse 4
    by 

    So, I just 
    write down 
    "Jesus 
    Saves" 'cause 

    there ain't no 
    way 

    I can fit that 
    on a 
    sign 

    I can't 
    fit that 
    on 
    a sign 

    I took 
    him to 
    Verse 5
    a dinner, 

    I bought 
    him a 
    cup 
    of coffee 

    He asked 
    me 
    if he could 
    borrow 

    a couple 
    dollars 
    off me 

    He told 
    me his 
    story, 
    I told 
    mine 

    And 
    he said, 

    "Thanks 'cause most 
    folks 
    around here 

    Would 
    never 
    take the time," 
    he said 

    Verse 6
    "I 
    lost my 
    job down 
    at the 
    mill 

    when that 
    fact
    ory 
    closed 

    Army 
    stopped 
    send
    ing 
    me them 
    check
    s, 

    the bank took 
    everything 
    I 
    own 

    Hitchhiked 
    my 
    way 
    up to Chica
    go, 

    the 
    night
    s were 
    too damn 
    cold 

    I hopped the 
    train, 

    headed west 
    'cause I had 
    nowhere 
    else to go" 

    It's hard to see 
    all that 
    driving by 
    Verse 7

    So, 
    I just 
    write down 
    "Jesus 
    Saves," 'cause 

    there ain't no 
    way 

    I can fit that 
    on 
    a sign 

    There 
    ain't no way 
    to 
    fit that 

    on a 
    sign 

    I probably 
    would've 
    wro
    Verse 8

    te down 
    a little more 

    If 
    I 
    could've found 
    a 
    bigger 

    piece of card
    board 

    My 
    brother, 
    Verse 9
    Wal
    ter 
    was my 
    hero, 

    but 
    he was 
    'bout the 
    drink 

    One 
    night, he 
    laid his 
    Harley 

    down near 
    that Ohio 
    River bank 

    Me 
    and my 
    ex
    - wife 
    tried 
    for kids 

    when 
    we were dating 

    Hell, 
    we even had 
    baby 
    names picked 

    out, but little 
    Walter 
    did
    n't 
    make it 

    Verse 10
    It's 
    hard to see 
    all that just 

    driving by 

    So, I just

    • 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.”
