    it's 
    toll 
    upon 
    your 
    mind 

    But 
    all 
    the 
    great 
    ones 
    have 
    been 
    there

    to try 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    living 

    But 
    it 
    ain't 
    been 
    so 
    easy 
    with 

    those 
    hill 
    country 
    women 

    And 
    i'm 
    stuck 
    in
    side 

    of 
    this 
    8x12 room 

    And 
    my 
    throat's 
    a scratchin' 

    from 
    the ci
    garettes 
    and 
    booze 

    Verse 7
    And 
    my 
    face 
    in 
    wrinklin' 
    and 

    my 
    mind's 
    a 
    strayin' 

    And 
    I 
    get 
    on 
    my 
    knees 

    and 
    I 
    get 
    to 
    prayin' 

    But 
    my 
    hands 
    are 
    worn 
    like 

    the soles 
    of 
    my 
    shoes 

    And 
    the 
    Lord 
    only 
    knows 
    I'm 
    just 

    fightin' 
    the 
    Nashville 
    Blues

      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 🙂

      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.
