    lately 
    she's 
    been

    And 
    I can't

    the right 
    to tell 
    my 
    wife 

    that 
    can't 
    come 
    around 

    The 
    night 
    I knocked 
    a hole 

    in her 
    front 
    door 

    Verse 5
    And Lor
    etta 
    took my 
    keys

    outside 

    But she 
    didn't 
    call 
    the law 

    she called 
    a cab 

    And 
    as 
    I pulled 
    away 
    I saw 

    something 
    in her 
    eyes 

    So 
    reck
    on 
    that 
    she knows 

    ain't so 
    bad 

    Verse 6
    I just 
    want 
    to see 
    my 
    kids 

    I just 
    want 
    to hold 
    my 
    girls 

    Heaven 
    knows 
    I ain't 
    got 
    much 

    of nothing 
    else 
    in 
    this 
    ole world 

    I just 
    want 
    to be 
    around 
    enough 

    to know 
    that 
    they've been 
    loved 

    I just 
    want to be 
    their daddy, 

    my 
    daddy 
    never 
    was 

    Verse 7

    Well my boss 
    will tell 
    you 
    that I've 

    been 
    to work 
    all week 
    on

    • 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.
