  • Verse 1
    Me 
    and 
    Willie 
    played 
    in 

    country 
    band 

    Seven 
    long 
    years 
    togeth
    er 
    playing 

    those 
    one 
    night 
    stands 

    Used 
    to say 
    the 
    booze 
    an
    bars 

    were 
    goin' to wear 
    him 
    out

    Hold 
    On, 
    a song 
    he wrote, 

    tear 
    your 
    heart 
    right 
    out 

    Verse 2

    We traveled 
    the northern 
    route 
    from 
    the 

    Great 
    Lakes 
    to Montreal 

    Hitting 
    all 
    the 
    honkytonks, I 

    bet 
    we 
    played 
    them 
    all 

    Willie 
    played 
    to 
    ease 
    his soul 

    and 
    drank 
    to 
    ease 
    his 
    mind 

    never 
    understood 
    how 

    he played 
    so 
    good 

    While 
    drinking 
    himself 
    half- 
    blind 

    Verse 3
    And 
    you 
    wouldn't 
    think 
    a man 
    so 

    weak 
    could 
    be 
    so 
    strong 

    Take 
    a crowd 
    of 
    rowdy 
    drunks, 

    hush 
    them 
    with 
    a song 
    and 
    I'd 

    Verse 4
    Rather 
    be 
    singing 
    my 
    heart 
    out 

    in 
    a dark 
    and 
    dingy 
    bar 

    Hitting 
    those 
    high 
    notes 
    with 
    Willie's 

    sad 
    guitar 
    and 
    I'd 

    Rather 
    be 
    singing 
    blues 
    song, 

    singing 
    sweet 
    and 
    high 

    Willie 
    standing 
    right 
    by 
    my 
    side 

    playing 
    country 
    slide 

    Verse 5

    Me 
    and 
    Willie, 
    oh 
    we watched 

    a lot 
    of 
    dreams 
    die 
    young

    Plans 
    we 
    made, 
    how 
    quick 
    they 
    fade, 

    fum
    blin' 
    one 
    by 
    one 

    Willie 
    never 
    let 
    it 
    bother 
    him 
    and 
    if he 
    did, 

    well 
    it didn't 
    show 

    You 
    know he 
    had 
    a way 
    of let
    tin' 
    go, 

    making 
    blue 
    turn 
    gold 

    Verse 6
    And 
    you 
    wouldn't 
    think 
    man 
    so 

    weak 
    could 
    be 
    so 
    strong 

    Take 
    the 
    blues 
    right 
    out 
    of 
    you, 

    put 
    them 
    in 
    a song 
    and 
    I'd 

    Verse 7
    Rather 
    be 
    singing 
    my 
    heart 
    out 

    in 
    a dark 
    and 
    dingy 
    bar 

    Hitting 
    those 
    high 
    notes 
    with 
    Willie's 

    sad 
    guitar 
    and 
    I'd 

    Rather 
    be 
    singing 
    blues 
    song, 

    singing 
    sweet 
    an
    high 

    Willie 
    standing 
    right 
    by 
    my 
    side 
    playing 

    Interlude 1
    country 
    slide 



    Verse 8
    left 
    Willie 
    in 
    a bar 
    in 
    Marietta 

    Couldn't 
    stand 
    to 
    watch 
    the man 

    love 
    drink 
    himself 
    to death 

    Now 
    I'm 
    working 
    in 
    Ottawa 
    and 
    I'm 
    doing 
    well, 

    guess 

    You know 
    the 
    good 
    life 
    don't 
    look 
    so 
    good 

    from 
    behind 
    a desk 
    and I'd 

    Verse 9
    Rather 
    be 
    singing 
    my 
    heart 
    out 

    in 
    a dark 
    and 
    dingy 
    bar 

    Hitting 
    those 
    high 
    notes 
    with 
    Willie's 

    sad 
    guitar 
    and 
    I'd 

    Rather 
    be 
    singing

    • 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.
