Shane and Dixie they
were two-bit crooks

They wanted to be famous
like you read in books
Shane had the brain and
D
Dxie had the looks for glory
G
As a bank robber Shane really
hadn't got a clue
He'd end up likely at the
end of a noose
Which was fine by Shane if the papers
could use the story

Verse 3
G
[CHORUS] They
found the bodies when the
neighbours complained
Shane was all over the walls like paint
Dixie looked bad but her heart
D
beat faint but surely
G
Well they saved her life,
they were just in time
And she turned her back on a life of crime
And she married the man who

O the news of the screws
most generously gave
The money helped to pay
for Shane's new grave

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
