    Verse 1
    Never 
    had 
    much 
    to say, 

    he traveled 
    alone 
    with 
    no 
    friends 

    Like 
    a shadowy 
    ghost 
    at 
    dawn 

    he came 
    and 
    he 
    went 

    Through 
    the 
    woodland 
    swiftly 
    gliding, 

    to 
    the young 
    maid 
    he 
    came 
    gliding 

    Where 
    she'd 
    run 
    to 
    meet 
    him, 

    by 
    the garden 
    wall 

    Verse 2
    Oh 
    my 
    sweet 
    Miguel, 
    will 
    never 
    tell 

    No 
    one 
    will 
    ever 
    know, 

    what 
    I know 
    too 
    well 

    And 
    he'd 
    smile 
    and 
    lay 
    his 
    head 
    on 
    her breast 

    and 
    he'd say 
    have 
    no 
    fear 

    They're 
    waiting 
    for 
    me 
    to cross 
    the border, 

    to swim 
    the river 

    Verse 3
    'Cause 
    I've 
    done 
    that 
    be
    fore 

    To see 
    my 
    true 
    loves 
    smil
    ing 
    face 

    hundred 
    times 
    or more 

    Oh 
    my 
    sweet 
    Miguel 
    she 
    cried 

    I'll 
    love 
    you 
    till 
    die 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    He 
    was 
    born 
    to 
    the south 
    in 

    Mex
    ico 
    they 
    say 

    The child 
    of 
    a man 
    who 

    had soon 
    gone 
    away 

    But 
    his 
    mother 
    loved 
    him 
    dearly 

    and 
    she 
    would 
    take 
    him 
    yearly 

    To 
    the 
    great 
    Cathedral 
    in 
    St. 
    Au
    gustine 

    Verse 5
    Oh 
    my 
    young 
    Miguel, 
    listen 
    to 
    the bell 

    Of 
    my 
    pover
    ty 
    you 
    must 
    never 
    tell 

    And 
    he cried 
    him
    self 
    to sleep 
    in 
    the night 

    And 
    he 
    vowed 
    to make 
    things 
    right 

    So 
    he took 
    the gun 
    down 
    from 

    the wall 
    and 
    he paid 
    a call 

    Verse 6
    He 
    knew 
    she'd 
    under
    stand 

    A lawman 
    came 
    to cap
    ture 
    him 

    The gun 
    jumped 
    in 
    his 
    hand 

    Oh 
    Miguel 
    the 
    mother 
    cried 

    You 
    must 
    run 
    son 
    or 
    you'll 

    die 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 7

    So 
    the story 
    is 
    told 
    of 
    his 
    true 

    love 
    cross 
    the 
    line 

    As strong 
    as 
    the 
    oak 
    and 

    as sweet 
    as 
    the 
    vine 

    And 
    the child 
    she 
    bore 
    him, 

    came 
    on 
    the fate
    ful 
    mornin' 

    When 
    they sent 
    him 
    to 
    his 
    fi
    nal 
    rest 

    Verse 8
    Oh 
    my 
    sweet 
    Miguel 
    listen 
    to 
    the 
    bell 

    No 
    one 
    will 
    ever 
    know, 

    of what 
    I know 
    too 
    well 

    Then 
    she'd 
    smile 
    and 
    lay 

    the child 
    on 
    her breast 

    And 
    she'd 
    say 
    have 
    no 
    fear 

    I'm 
    waiting 
    for 
    you 
    to cross 
    the border, 

    to swim 
    the 
    river 

    Verse 9
    'Cause 
    you've 
    done 
    that 
    be
    fore 

    To 
    see 
    your 
    true 
    loves 
    smil
    ing 
    face 

    hundred 
    times 
    or more 

    Oh 
    my 
    sweet 
    Miguel 
    she 
    cried 

    I'll 
    love 
    you 
    till

    • 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.
