    • Verse 1
    Well 
    I 
    woke 
    up 
    this 
    morning 
    when 

    the cold 
    Chicago 
    wind 

    Blew 
    my 
    newspaper 
    blanket 

    off 
    my 
    back

    Through 
    my 
    dirty 
    broken 
    window 

    the 
    grey 
    sun 
    filtered 
    in

    As 
    I 
    dreamed 
    about 
    the South

    bound 
    railroad 
    track 

    I 
    could 
    almost 
    hear 
    the 
    crickets 

    in 
    a 
    sleepy 
    cotton 
    field 

    As 
    daddy 
    drove 
    our 
    vagon 

    to 
    Vir
    gin 

    But 
    today 
    I'd 
    give 
    a 
    fortune 
    for 

    a 
    twenty 
    five 
    cent 
    meal 

    And 
    I 
    wish 
    I 
    was 
    a 
    coun
    try 
    boy 
    again 

    So 
    let 
    me 
    ride 
    on 
    the Southbound 

    Back 
    to 
    where 
    I 
    came 
    from 
    I 

    don't 
    care 
    or 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    So 
    let 
    me 
    ride 
    on 
    the Southbound 
    and 
    put 
    me 
    off 

    somewhere 
    near 
    Birming
    ham 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    What 
    happened 
    to 
    my 
    vision 

    of 
    a 
    man
    sion 
    on 
    a 
    hill 

    And 
    the 
    fame 
    and 
    fortune 
    I 

    came 
    here 
    to 
    win 

    I've 
    got 
    nothing 
    but 
    the 
    roaches 

    running 
    cross 
    my 
    window 
    sill 

    And 
    I 
    wish 
    I 
    was 
    a 
    country 
    boy 
    again 

    Outro 1
    So 
    let 
    me 
    ride

      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.
