Verse 1
D
Mama hated diesels so bad I guess I
knew it was something to do with
Dad
G
The first I ever seen her cry was after
D
Bm
one of them things went by
D
G
D
Mama hated diesel so bad
I remember here,
G
D
those semis year and date
My mom and me,
A
we lived right on the high
G
grade end of town I sure liked
them white
Freightliners, but
D
But there was something
in mama's eye
When she'd catch me
watchin' the road
A
D
Lord, a little bitty piece of her die
Mama hated diesel so bad
I guess I knew it was
somethin' to do with
Dad
G
The first I ever seen her cry was after
D
Bm
D
one of them things went bad
G
D
Mama hated diesel so bad
As the years passed and I grew old,
G
Mama did too
D
Pretty soon she stopped
singing and laughing
While she'd hardly even eaten
And I began staying away from
A
home on the weekdays
I would come home from
G
school till way past dark
I was too busy having some kind of fun,
D
either messing around with some gal or hanging around
the local truck stop,
talking to my buddies about all the big rigs they're all the time
rolling in, and talking about all the crazy
A
places we've never been, like
D
California.
But one day the county sheriff come up to me,
G
he said they found my momma wandering
all by herself in the middle of
D
the highway crying.
She was tryin' of all things,
Lord, to flag down one of them big old
A
rigs with a pocket handkerchief
G
Well, that left me on my own
D
G
I got a job unloadin' rigs down
at the local freight yard
D
Pretty soon I had a rig of my own
And I left my hometown on
my very first run to
Frisco
Well, that was three years ago today
A
And I ain't been back home
in all that time since then
Till now
D
Now it's me and the local preacher
G
D
Standin' in the graveyard grass
Starin' down at the highway
A
Watchin' those big boys pass
G
Well he laid his hand upon me
D
And he prayed for quite some time
That I could barely understand
the words he said
A
D
Behind that highway swine
Then he handed me a faded photograph
G
D
He said he found it in my mama's hand
He said, son,
I'm afraid that you in this picture
A
Was the be st your mama ever had
G
Well, I looked down at that picture,
it was
D
Mama and some guy
Standin' in front of a semi -truck,
A
D
just merry -painted on the side
Mama hated diesel so bad
A
D
I guess I knew it was
somethin' to do with
Dad
G
The first I ever seen her cry
D
Was after one of them
Bm
D
fangs went by
G
D
Mama hated diesel so bad
G
Mama, hated diesels so bad
D

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

“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
