    As 
    Verse 1
    I 

    Went 

    Down 
    to 
    the 

    River 

    When 
    that 
    train 
    came 
    rollin' 
    by, 

    I 
    waved 
    my 
    hand 
    at 
    my mama 
    that 
    I 
    loved 
    goin' 
    down 
    that 

    railroad 
    track
    . 

    She's 
    gone, 
    she's gone, 

    she's 
    gone, 
    she's 
    gone 

    And 
    no 
    cryin' 
    will 
    bring 
    her 
    back 

    She's 
    the only 
    mother 

    that 
    I 
    ever did 
    love 

    Goin' 
    down 
    that 
    railroad 
    track




    As 
    I 
    went 
    down 
    to 
    that freight 
    depot 

    I 
    looked 
    upon 
    the 
    sun

    Think
    ing 
    about 
    the 
    only mother 

    That 
    I ever 
    had 
    in this world 

    Could 
    not 
    help 
    from 
    hangin' 
    my head 

    And 
    cryin' 

    Fare 
    you 
    well 

    Fare 
    you well 

    She's 
    gone, 
    gone 

    She's 
    gone 
    down 
    that 

    lonesome 
    rail
    road 
    track 

    She 
    left 
    me 
    to 
    sing 
    this 
    song 



    As 
    I 
    went 
    down 
    to 
    that 
    freight 
    depot 

    When 
    that 
    train 
    came 
    a 
    -rollin' 
    by 

    I 
    waved 
    my 
    hands 
    at 

    my momma 
    that 
    I 
    loved 

    Goin' 
    down 
    that 
    rail
    road 
    track

    Goin' 
    down 
    that 
    railroad 
    track

    Goin' 
    down 
    that 
    railroad 
    track

    you

      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 🙂

      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.
