    Verse 1

    Jesse 
    lit 
    us 
    up 
    and 
    passed 

    the 
    bottle 
    one 
    more 
    time 

    We 
    used 
    to smoke 
    and 
    drink 

    a lot 
    back 
    then 

    Thunder 
    shook 
    heavens 
    and 
    the 

    lightning 
    danced 
    the sky 

    Like 
    ain't seen 
    since 

    can't 
    remember 
    when 

    Verse 2
    The 
    Oklahoma 
    kid 
    laid 
    dying 

    in 
    a women's 
    wing 

    Just 
    another 
    Indian 
    biting 
    dust 

    Clouds 
    grew 
    dark 
    in 
    promise 
    but they 

    did
    n't 
    rain 
    a thing 

    The government 
    ain't 

    something 
    you 
    can trust 

    Verse 3

    We 
    picked 
    a gig 
    in 
    Tulsa 
    at 
    the 

    Cain's 
    ballroom 
    that 
    night 

    The 
    Oklahoma 
    kid 
    was 
    dead 
    and gone 

    Rains 
    still 
    hadn't 
    come 
    but 
    the cloud

    still 
    blacked 
    the sky 

    That's 
    when I 
    took 
    the time 
    to write 

    this 
    song 
    about 
    the wrong 

    Verse 4
    Oh, 
    the 
    Oklahoma 
    wind 
    slides 

    across 
    the burning 
    sand 

    Over 
    double 
    crosses 
    Mother 
    Nature 
    made 

    And 
    nothing's 
    ever 
    come 
    as 

    far 
    as 
    I'm con
    cerned 

    From 
    those 
    dead 
    tomorrows 

    planted 
    yesterday 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    Black 
    man 
    took 
    a chance 
    and got 

    his 
    foot 
    hung 
    in 
    the door 

    He 
    sure 
    as 
    hell 
    is 
    gonna 
    have 
    his 
    day 

    The 
    redman 
    speaks 
    his 
    peace, 

    gain 
    his 
    long 
    lost 
    dignity 

    And 
    Washington 
    just 
    turned 

    the 
    other 
    way 


    Verse 6
    Jesse 
    spends 
    his 
    days 
    in Loco 

    Hills 
    New 
    Mexico 

    Every 
    night 
    he drinks 
    his 
    fill 
    of booze 

    When 
    Williams 
    ghost 
    is 
    running, 

    he 
    lays 
    his 
    money 
    down 

    Winning 
    just 
    enough 
    to lose 

    and 
    lose 
    and 
    lose and 
    lose 

    Verse 7
    Oh, 
    the 
    Oklahoma 
    wind 
    slides 
    across 

    the 
    burning 
    sand 

    Over double 
    crosses 

    Mother 
    Nature 
    made 

    And 
    nothing's 
    ever 
    come 
    as 

    far 
    as 
    I'm con
    cerned 

    From 
    those 
    dead 
    tomorrows 

    planted 
    yester
    day

    • 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.
