    Verse 1
    Cowboys 
    and 

    Indians 
    and 
    trees 
    he 
    could climb 

    To
    morrow 
    came 
    too 
    fast 

    but he 
    didn't 
    mind 

    Ah, 
    the 
    distance 
    was 
    short 
    so 
    light 
    it 
    again 

    It 
    don't 
    take 
    no 
    time 
    to 
    get 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    Verse 2
    But 
    the 
    one 
    paper 
    kid 
    wasn't 

    really 
    so 
    mean 

    He's 
    just 
    a 
    little 
    bit 
    scared 

    and a 
    little 
    bit 
    green 

    And 
    he'd 
    heard 
    of 
    a place 

    that 
    was legal 
    to dream 

    So 
    he sat 
    with 
    his 
    coffee 

    and 
    a 
    blue 
    Texas 
    wind 

    And 
    wrote 
    on 
    the rock 
    "the 
    one 
    paper 
    kid, 

    he's 
    rollin' 
    again" 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    The 
    driver 
    was 
    drunk 
    or 

    he 
    just 
    didn't 
    see 

    The 
    future 
    was 
    there: it'll 
    happen 
    to me 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    time 
    that 
    he wasted 

    was 
    his 
    once 
    again 

    It 
    never 
    takes 
    too 
    long 
    to 
    go 

    where 
    you've 
    been 

    Verse 4
    There's 
    broken 
    hearts 

    scattered 
    all 
    over 
    the past 

    And 
    old 
    bad 
    memories 

    tryin' 
    to 
    last 

    Whiskey 
    and 
    women 
    and 

    growing 
    up 
    fast 

    Fussin' 
    and 
    lovin' 
    and 

    itchin' 
    like 
    grass 

    Verse 5
    Hell, 
    the 
    one 
    paper 
    kid 

    wasn't 
    really 
    so 
    mean 

    Just 
    a 
    little 
    bit 
    weird 
    'cause 

    the 
    times 
    were 
    so 
    lean 

    Now 
    he's 
    gone 
    to 
    a place 

    where 
    it's legal 
    to dream 

    No 
    camels, 
    no 
    coffee, 

    no 
    cold 
    morning 
    wind 

    And 
    it's 
    writ 
    on 
    the rock 
    "the 
    one 
    paper 
    kid, 

    he's 
    rollin' 
    again 

    The 
    one 
    paper 
    kid, 

    he's 
    rollin' 
    again

      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.
