Rock Island Line chords by 
Brian Hyland
N/A•
Verse 1
D
Now this here's a story
about the Rock Island Line.
Now the Rock Island Line,
she runs down into New Orleans.
And just outside New Orleans,
there's a great big toll gate.
And all the trains that
go through the toll gate
gotta pay some money.
But of course,
if you have certain things on board,
you don't have to pay nothing.
And now we see a train
coming down the line,
and the driver of the train
shouts down at the man at the toll gate.
And this is what he said
I got cows, I got horses,
I got pigs, I got sheep
I got old livestock, got old livestock,
got old livestock
And the man at the tollgate said
Well, you're right, boy,
let's get on through
You don't have to pay me nothing
And the man goes through
And he got a little bit of speed,
a little bit of steam
And he shot back down
to the guy at the tollgate
And this is what he said
I fooled you, I fooled you, I got the pig iron,
I the pig iron, I got old pig iron
Yeah, and I'll tell you where I'm goin',
boy

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!!!”

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.”
