    him 
    of a

    Texas 
    earth

    met 
    Errol 
    Flynn 
    there 

    In the

    Water 
    Hotel 

    And 
    they

    In the 
    moonlight 
    of old 
    Mineral

    Verse 6
    So they 
    boarded 
    a greyhound 

    in 
    search 
    of 
    the fountain 

    Fat 
    boy 
    and the 
    aging 
    film 
    queen 

    Through the 
    Great 
    Painted 
    Desert 

    and 
    all 
    across 
    Texas 

    Amarillo 
    plain 
    to

    They 
    got

    a fresh 
    cup 
    of coffee 

    Caught the

    Mineral 
    Wells 

    And it 
    dropped 
    them 
    in 
    front 
    of 

    that 
    boarded 
    up palace 

    Called the 
    Crazy 
    Water 
    Hotel 

    Verse 7

    Disillusioned 
    they 
    found 
    a cheap 

    room 
    off 
    the highway 

    Drank 
    vodka 
    from a 
    styro
    foam cup 

    There'd 
    be 
    no 
    healing 
    return 

    to 
    the past 

    The fountain 
    of 
    youth 
    had 
    dried 
    up 

    So 
    the 
    critic 
    and 
    the film 
    star 

    held 
    hands 
    and drank 
    vodka 

    As 
    the great 
    Texas 
    sun 
    rose 
    and 
    fell 

    And 
    drunk 
    but still 
    dreaming 
    they 

    waltzed 
    down 
    the 
    street 

    In the 
    moonlight 
    of old 
    Mineral 
    Well

    Verse 8
    She 
    told 
    him 
    of 
    a fountain 
    of 
    youth 

    In the

    earth 

    It'll

    met 
    Errol 
    Flynn 
    there 

    In the

    Water 
    Hotel 

    And they 
    danced 
    down 
    the 
    street 

    In the 
    moonlight 
    of old 
    Mineral 
    Wells

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
