Josie Escalido, she

In a church her grand-

A little catholic mission where she would

spend her days wishin'

That he would come along

and she'd be saved
D

Verse 2

Jimmy was an outlaw and outcast

from the bad lands

He rode a horse as black as his heart

Stayed, hopped up on mezcal,

chased whiskey with saloon gals

But he never could get Josie

off his mind
D
Verse 3

G

And he said, "Meet me after midnight
D

I'll be riding hard and fast
A

And our love is like a slow dance
D

I'm just tryin' to make it last

And I'm laying down my
G

six guns
D

And surrendering my heart
A

And it'll be a rosary, sangria,
G

tequila and a cross

Outlaws,
D

angels and the lost"

But the past is like a storm that

crashes in from the north

Rolls south with the posse set on death

Blood all over Jimmy's hands and

Josie lying in the desert sand

With a bullet that tore Jimmy's

heart in two

  • 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.
