    G
    Bm
    C
    D
    G

    I was out on

    the west coast,
    Bm
    D
    C

    tryin' to make a buck.

    Things didn't work out,
    D
    G

    I was gettin' down on my luck.
    Bm

    I got tired of roamin'

    and bummin' around,
    C
    D

    so I started thumbin' back east
    G

    Toward my hometown
    D
    Bm

    I made a whole lot of miles

    the first few days
    C
    D

    And I figured I'd be home in a week
    G

    If my luck don't act this way
    Bm

    But the third night I got stranded
    D
    C

    way outside of town
    D

    At a cold, lonely crossroads,
    Bm
    D
    G

    rain was pouring down
    Em
    Bm

    Well, I was hungry and freezing
    C

    and I caught a chill
    D

    When the lights of a big old semi
    G

    topped the hill
    Em

    Oh, I sure was glad to hear
    G
    Bm

    them air brakes coming on
    C

    And I climbed in that cab
    D
    G

    where I knew it'd be warm
    Bm

    At the wheel sat a big man,
    C

    he weighed about 210
    D

    He stuck out his hand and said with a grin,
    G
    Bm

    Big Joe is the name
    C

    I told him mine, he said the name
    D
    G

    of my rig is Fathom 309
    Em

    Well I asked him why he
    Bm

    called his rig such a name
    C

    He said, son, this old Mac
    D

    put them all to shame.
    G

    Why, there ain't a driver
    Bm

    or a rig runnin' any line
    C

    That's seen nothin' but
    D
    G

    taillights flat on 309.

    Well, we rode and talked
    Bm
    D
    C

    the better part of the night
    D

    When the lights of a truck stop

    came inside
    G

    He said I'm sorry son,
    Bm
    C

    this is as far as you go

    Cause I gotta make a turn
    D
    G

    just on up the road

    Well he tossed me a dime
    Bm
    C

    as he pulled her in low

    Said have yourself a hot cup
    D
    Bm

    on old Big Joe Joe
    G
    Bm

    and his rig roared out into that night
    C

    And nothing flashed,
    D
    G

    he was plain out of sight
    Bm

    Well I went inside and I
    D

    ordered me a cup
    C

    I told the waiter,
    D

    Big Joe is setting me up
    G
    Bm

    Oh, you could have heard a pin drop
    C

    It got deathly quiet,

    and the waiter's face
    D

    turned kind of white.
    C
    G

    Well, I said, wait a minute,

    did I say something wrong?
    Em
    Bm

    I'm kind of halfway grand.
    C

    He said, no, no,
    D

    this happens every now and then.
    G

    Every driver in here knows Big Joe.
    Bm

    But son, let me tell you what happened
    C
    D
    G

    about ten years ago.
    D
    G
    Bm

    At the crossroads tonight,
    D
    Bm
    C

    where you flagged them down,
    G
    D

    there was a busload of kids
    G

    coming from town.

    And they was right in the middle
    D
    Bm

    when Big Joe topped the hill.
    C

    He could have been slaughtered,
    D

    but he turned his wheels.
    G

    Well, Joe lost control,
    Em
    Bm
    C

    went into a skid.
    D
    G

    Gave his life to save that bunch of kids.

    And there at that crossroads
    Em
    Bm

    was the end of the line
    C
    D

    For Big Joe and Madam 309
    G
    Bm
    G
    Bm
    C
    D
    G

    Em
    Bm

    But every now and then
    C

    Some hitchhiker comes by
    D
    Bm
    G

    Like you, Big Joe, give him a ride
    Bm

    Have another cup of coffee, son
    C

    And forget about the dine

    Keep it as a souvenir
    D
    D
    G

    from Big Joe And Fathom 309
    G
    G

    I don't pre -order.

    • 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.
