    Verse 1
    Stop 
    all 
    this 
    talk, 

    turn 
    off 
    the telephone 

    Open 
    up 
    another 
    bottle, 

    send 
    those 
    people 
    home 

    Let 
    it get 
    real 
    quiet, 

    turn 
    that 
    lamp 
    way 
    down 
    low 

    I'm 
    gon
    na 
    float 
    down 

    this 
    river 
    of 
    tears 

    Verse 2

    remember 
    how 
    we 
    spoke 

    on the 
    days 
    he 
    was 
    dry 

    Even 
    now 
    that 
    he's 
    gone 
    he can 

    make 
    a woman 
    cry 

    But 
    he saw 
    through 
    me 

    deaf 
    dumb 
    and 
    blind 

    He 
    knew 
    his 
    way 
    down 
    this 
    river 

    of 
    tears 

    Verse 3

    "Dashed 
    hopes 
    and 
    best 

    intentions" 
    people 
    say 

    He 
    could 
    sit 
    and drink 
    the 
    way 

    monk 
    could 
    pray 

    So 
    grab 
    that 
    silver 
    flask, 

    pour 
    yourself 
    another 
    glass 
    and 

    Watch 
    me 
    rage 
    down 
    this 

    river 
    of 
    tears 

    Verse 4

    Turn 
    out 
    the 
    stars 
    now, 

    darken 
    every 
    one 

    Watch 
    the clouds 
    cover 
    that 

    big 
    yellow 
    moon 

    Close 
    the blinds, 

    mute 
    the 
    sun

    There's 
    nowhere 
    left 
    to 
    run 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    Turn 
    out 
    the 
    stars 
    now, 

    darken 
    every 
    one 

    Watch 
    the 
    clouds 
    cover 
    that 

    big 
    yel
    low 
    moon 

    Close 
    the blinds, 

    mute 
    the 
    sun 

    There 
    ain't 
    nowhere 
    left 
    to run 

    There ain't 
    nowhere left 
    to run 

    Verse 6
    Picked 
    up 
    that 
    old 
    decanter 

    That 
    he 
    used 
    to 
    drink 
    from 

    Turned 
    on 
    his 
    ste
    reo 

    Just 
    to 
    hear 
    it 
    hum 

    Daddy, 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    wrap 
    myself 
    in 
    blanket

    and 
    listen 
    to 
    you 
    sing 

    And I'm 
    goin' 
    to 
    flow 
    down 
    this 
    river 
    of tears

    • 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.
