    Every 
    man has 
    to 
    come to 
    a crossroad 

    somewhere 
    along 
    the way. 

    Johnny 
    Cash 
    came 
    to his 
    crossroad 
    in 
    a place 
    called 

    Nickajack
    Cave. 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    Little 
    white 
    pill
    s 
    and 
    whis
    key 

    Honky 
    tonks 
    and 
    smoke 

    One 
    night 
    stand
    s 
    with 
    his 
    country 
    band 

    Had 
    him strung 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    ropes 

    Well, 
    he 
    cried 
    out 
    to 
    Jesus 

    He said, 
    "Jesus, 

    I 
    think 
    I'm 
    too 
    lost 
    to save." 

    He 
    already 
    had 
    one 
    foot 

    inside 
    the 
    grave 

    As 
    he stepped 
    into 
    the 
    mouth 
    of 

    Nickajack Cave 


    Verse 3
    Everything 
    was 
    dark
    ness 

    Was
    n't 
    no 
    light 
    at 
    all 

    Just 
    the cold 
    dank 
    air 
    and 

    the pitch 
    black 
    dirt 

    And 
    the spider
    s on 
    the 
    walls 

    Well, 
    he 
    laid 
    down 
    beneath 
    a 
    ledge 

    And 
    curled 
    up 
    there 
    to meet 
    his 

    judgment 
    day 

    The shivering 
    came 
    upon 
    him 

    wave 
    by 
    wave 

    Well, 
    he 
    could feel 
    the 
    breath 
    of 
    death 
    in 

    Interlude 2
    Nickajack Cave 


    Verse 4
    Then 
    high 
    above 
    him 
    shone 
    a 
    light 

    He 
    never 
    would 
    forget 

    Then 
    he 
    heard 
    a 
    voice 
    say, 
    "Johnny 
    Cash, 

    I 
    ain't 
    through 
    with 
    you 
    yet. 

    Get 
    up
    , 
    I 
    ain't 
    through 
    with 
    you 
    yet. 

    I 
    ain't 
    through 
    with you 

    get 
    Johnny 
    Cash, 

    Get 
    up." 

    Verse 5

    Then 
    he 
    crawled 
    out 
    from 

    beneath 
    that 
    ledge 

    And 
    felt 
    a gentle 
    breeze 

    Tears 
    and 
    dirt 
    smeared 
    on 
    his 
    face 

    As 
    peaceful 
    as 
    could 
    be 

    Well, 
    he 
    knelt 
    down 
    upon 
    the 
    ground 

    Raised 
    his 
    eyes 
    up 
    to 
    the light 

    and 
    prayed 

    He said, 
    "Lord, 
    I'll 
    be 
    your 
    ser
    vant 

    from 
    this 
    day." 

    That's 
    how 
    he 
    be
    came 
    "The 
    Man 
    In 
    Black

    " 
    in 
    Nickajack
    Cave 

    Verse 6
    That's 
    how he 
    be
    came 
    "The 
    Man 
    In 
    Black
    " 
    in 
    Nickajack Cave 

    Interlude 3


    Get 
    up 
    Johnny 
    Cash, 
    Verse 7

    I ain't 
    through 
    with 
    you yet 

    Get 
    up

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
