Verse 1
D
A
G
D

I live in a cold, world, all by myself

I wear the sun, don't ever shine

And it's a low -down place,
A
D

I mean a mean disgrace

The way you've got me doing time
G

You've got to break these
Gm

lonely chains I'm in
G
Gm

I swear by stars above

I'd rather do 90 years
G

on a hard rock pile
A

Than to have to do without your love
D

I'm in a poor man's prison, baby

It's been a hard, long, lonesome time

But darling, can't you see

that you can set me free
A

Because your loving doesn't
D

out of my mind

Maybe there's four stone
A
D

walls around me

And a cold flower under my head

You know at night I weep, I just can't sleep

I guess I might as well be dead
G

You know it's such a drag without you,

baby

I'm staying here all alone
Gm

And I just can't take it too much longer
A

Baby, won't you come back home?
D

I'm in a poor man's prison, baby

It's been a hard, long, lonesome time

But darling, can't you see

that you can set me free?
A

Cause your lovin' drives me out
D
G
Gm
G

of my mind

I'd rather do 90 years on a hard rock car
A

Than to have to do without your love
G
D

I'm in a poor man's prison, baby

D, d, d, d, d, d, d, d, d, d, d...

...cold brew at our pharmacy.

D, d, d, d, d, d, d, d...

  • 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.
