    Verse 1
    D

    Miles down in a holy town,

    built amongst the trees,

    preached a man named Pumpkin Brown

    who could wash the sins from me.
    G

    Well he searched the ground

    like a serpent hound

    crawling through the weeds
    D

    And he combed the stills

    and climbed the hills

    for the good Lord's true indeed
    G

    He searched the ground

    like a serpent hound

    sifting through the brush
    D

    And they'd call his name

    when the morning came

    and he could not get enough

    He was looking for the key

    to the good Lord's mystery

    Well he came down from a gospel town

    way up in Tennessee

    And he'd never pass a single chance

    to call out and to preach
    G

    Well he had that spirit deep in him

    and with those tongues he'd speak
    D

    He'd skip the aisles side

    to side floating on his feet
    G

    The people came from miles around

    and at the pulpit he was found
    D

    Shaken like thunder

    while his words spit like fire

    He was looking for the key

    to the good lord's mystery
    G
    D

    All right.
    G
    D



    Well, the preacher screams

    to the crowd around,

    I'm gonna save your souls,

    it's time to save your souls.
    G

    Well, they close their eyes

    with their hands up high,

    dancing with the moon

    from side to side,
    D

    singing for the Lord and the devil,

    do they treat?
    G

    Yeah, they close their eyes,

    cast out their lies,
    Bm
    G

    barking like dogs underneath the sky,

    D

    Shakin' and a -movin'

    like God's holy feet

    One night a soul around

    saw the serpent bound

    Stole the soul of Reverend John Brown

    Sunk like a dagger right

    through his veins

    Lightnin' fast, man, it took his name
    G

    The Reverend tried to hide the pain

    To the crowd did he refrain
    D

    I'm ready to go, I ain't afraid to die

    Come on down from the holy sky
    G

    The people cried and they

    gathered round

    They fanned his brow with the

    holy sounds
    D

    Showing love to this dignity

    For of this life now he is free

    He held the key to the

    good lord's mystery

    Well that's the tale of old

    John Wayne Brown

    And to the heavens he was duty bound

    He cast out devils

    and he spoke new tongues

    He followed signs

    and never played with guns
    G

    But this time things went a different way

    And in the heavens this man'll stay
    D

    Fightin' with the devil,

    castin' shadows on the ground
    G

    A whale in the heavens,

    for he shall stay

    Preachin' for the Lord

    almost every day
    D

    Holdin' that box

    and the sacred lock and key

    Where the reverend, his wife,

    and the good old Lord

    makes three you

    • 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.
