  • Verse 1
    Them 
    Texas 
    fields 
    were hot 

    And that 
    tractor 
    never 

    was 
    my kind 
    of 
    living 

    And 
    when I 
    hit 
    sixteen 

    had 
    my size 
    and I 
    hit 
    the road 
    to freedom 

    And 
    I'm glad 
    wasn't 
    there 

    To see 
    my 
    momma 
    cause 
    she 

    must've 
    cried 
    for hours 

    I still 
    hear 
    her 
    saying 
    Gary 

    Get 
    your 
    guitar 
    and 
    pick 

    The Wildwood 
    Flower 

    Verse 2
    Now 
    Dallas 
    it 
    was big 

    And hard 
    to find 
    a job 
    and 
    so 
    did
    n't 

    It 
    was 
    easier 
    to hitch 
    a ride 
    to Houston 

    And it 
    was more 
    like 
    living 

    Now 
    I've been 
    down 
    every 
    road 

    And 
    I've stood 
    on 
    every 
    porch 

    where they 
    were giving 

    And 
    if 
    they 
    had 
    an 
    hour 
    or 
    a dime 

    I would 
    pick 
    The Wildwood 
    Flower 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    hard 
    to turn 
    around 

    And look 
    back 
    down 
    the roads 

    that 
    I have 
    trav
    elled 

    Cause 
    like 
    a neverending 
    ball 
    of twine 

    My 
    dreams 
    have come 
    unrav
    elled 

    And now 
    as 
    evening 
    lays 
    its shawl 

    Across 
    the shoulders 
    of my 

    life 
    have 
    defined 

    I couldn't 
    tie 
    my 
    life 
    together 

    With 
    the 
    guitar 
    strings 
    and 

    a poet's 
    heart 
    full 
    of 
    pride 

    Verse 4
    And 
    I'm 
    so 
    glad 
    wasn't 
    there 

    To see my 
    momma 
    cause 
    she 

    must've 
    cried 
    for hours 

    I still 
    hear 
    her saying 
    Gary 

    Get 
    your 
    guitar 
    and 
    pick 
    The Wildwood 
    Flower

    • 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.
