    • Verse 1
    I keep 
    my 

    fist 
    raised 

    up 
    full 
    time 
    against 
    the 
    world 

    Sometimes 
    with 
    the family 
    an

    d sometimes 
    with 
    a girl 

    Yeah, 
    you 
    think 
    I've 
    learned 
    my 
    lesson, 

    I'm a 
    man 
    who's 
    been 
    around 

    But I 
    could 
    nev
    er 
    keep 
    that 

    middle 
    finger 
    down 

    Well, I'm 
    still 
    hanging 
    on 
    and I 

    think 
    God 
    takes 
    care 
    of 
    fools 

    I 
    broke 
    a lotta 
    hearts 
    and 

    I broke 
    a lotta 
    rules 

    Yet 
    somehow 
    I 
    survived 
    with 

    a bit 
    of 
    dummy 
    luck 

    But I 
    could 
    nev
    er 
    keep 
    that 

    finger 
    from 
    sticking 
    up 

    Verse 2
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep, 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 

    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    my 
    life 
    from 

    burning 
    to the 
    ground 

    You'd 
    think 
    I learned 
    my 
    lesson, 

    I'm 
    a man 
    who's 
    been 
    around 

    But I 
    could 
    nev
    er 
    keep 
    that 
    middle 

    finger 
    down 

    Verse 3

    I'm 
    a grudge-holding 
    jerk 
    jerk 

    who 
    starts 
    feuds 
    with 
    a wink 

    A 
    sharp-tongued 
    SOB 
    SOB 
    who 

    speaks 
    before 
    he thinks 

    I've 
    learned 
    from 
    my 
    losses 
    and 

    I know 
    when 
    I'm wrong 

    Still, 
    my 
    life's 
    sadder 
    than 

    an old 
    country 
    song 

    I 
    Verse 4
    could 
    never 
    keep, 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 

    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    my 
    life 
    from 

    burning 
    to 
    the ground 

    You'd 
    think 
    I 
    learned 
    my 
    lesson, 

    I'm 
    a man 
    who's 
    been 
    around 

    But 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    that 
    middle 
    finger 
    down 

    Interlude 1


    So 
    if 
    you 
    Verse 5
    looked 
    at 
    my 
    life, 

    if 
    you 
    took 
    a little 
    peek 

    You'd 
    say, 
    "Good 
    Lord, 
    let 
    it 
    go, 

    man, 
    just 
    turn 
    the 
    other 
    cheek" 

    I 
    don't 
    know 
    how to 
    let 
    it go, 

    I just 
    don't 
    know 
    how 
    to behave 

    I was 
    born 
    with 
    this 
    affliction 

    and 
    I'll 
    take 
    it 
    to 
    the grave 

    I 
    Verse 6
    could 
    never 
    keep, 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 

    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    my 
    life 
    from 

    burning 
    to 
    the 
    ground 

    You'd 
    think 
    I 
    learned 
    my 
    lesson, 

    I'm 
    a man 
    who's 
    been 
    around 

    But 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 

    that 
    middle 
    finger 
    down 

    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    (no), I 

    could 
    never 
    keep 
    (no) 

    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    my 
    life 
    from 

    burning 
    to 
    the 
    ground 

    You'd 
    think 
    I learned 
    my 
    lesson, 

    I'm a 
    man 
    who's 
    been 
    around 

    But 
    I 
    could 
    never 
    keep 
    that 
    middle 

    finger 
    down

      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

      "

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
