    • Verse 1
    I just 
    got a 
    letter 
    from 
    my family, 

    the 
    ones 
    that 
    I used 
    to call 
    my own. 

    In 
    so many 
    words 
    they said 
    they loved 
    me, 

    but I 
    could tell 
    they knew 
    I'd not 
    be home. 

    Outside 
    I 
    guess 
    the moon 
    is shinin' 

    I 
    heard 
    the midnight 
    train 
    go 
    by 

    All 
    I 
    ever do, 
    I'm 
    so lonely 

    Is 
    lie 
    upon 
    my cot 
    and 
    cry 

    The 
    prison 
    door 
    is locked 
    from 
    the out

    side 
    I 
    can
    't 
    even tell 
    night 
    from day 

    The 
    prison 
    door 
    is locked 

    from 
    the out
    side 

    And 
    it looks 
    like 
    I'm 
    in the cell 
    to stay, 

    poor boy 

    Through 
    endless 
    days 
    and nights 
    I 
    wonder 

    Just 
    how 
    a boy 
    like me 
    went 
    wrong 

    God 
    only 
    knows 
    all 
    the broken 
    hearts 

    that 
    live 
    in 
    the words 
    of 
    this song 

    The 
    warden 
    says 
    I'm 
    in forever
    , 

    and 
    that 
    means 
    it's here 
    I'm 
    gon
    na die 

    I 
    tell 
    this 
    old cell 
    I'll 
    be leaving, 

    but 
    this 
    old cell 
    won't 
    tell me 
    goodbye 

    The 
    pris
    on door 
    is locked 
    from 
    the out
    side I 

    can't 
    even tell 
    night 
    from day 

    The prison 
    door 
    is locked 
    from 
    the out
    side 

    And 
    it looks 
    like 
    I'm 
    in 
    the cell 
    to stay 

    Poor 
    boy, 
    it looks 
    like 
    I'm 
    in the 
    cell to 
    stay

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
