    Verse 1
    Down 
    in 
    coastal 

    South 

    Carolina, 
    there's 
    a 
    very 
    old 
    county 

    with 
    some 
    very 
    old 
    customs. 

    Root 
    doctor 
    people 
    that 
    put 
    spells 
    on, 
    sup
    posedly, 

    and lawmen 
    that 
    lift 
    them 
    off, 
    supposedly. 

    And 
    I 
    met 
    a root 
    doctor 
    lady 
    down 

    there 
    that became 
    my 
    friend. 

    I 
    her 
    at 
    an old 
    church 
    run, 

    in 
    an 
    old 
    place 
    called 
    the 

    Sheldon 

    Churchyard. 

    A 
    storm 
    passed 
    by 
    in 
    a 
    half 
    -moon 
    sky, 

    and I 
    lay 
    by 
    the 
    well 
    to 
    rest 
    my 
    eyes 
    awhile. 

    In 
    the 

    Sheldon 

    Churchyard, 
    the 

    Sheldon 

    Churchyard. 

    I 
    woke 
    in 
    the 
    fright 
    and 

    there 
    in 
    the 
    moon
    light 

    A 
    gul
    let 
    woman 
    whispered 
    in the 
    night, 

    son 

    Son, 
    what 
    you 
    doin' 
    here 

    What 
    you 
    doin' 
    here 

    I 
    said I'm 
    so 
    tired 
    of 
    the 

    time 
    I've 
    wasted 

    There's 
    been 
    no 
    joy 
    in 

    the 
    life 
    I've 
    tasted 

    Since 
    I've 
    been here, 

    since 
    I've 
    been here 

    Can 
    you help 
    me 
    put 
    an 
    end 
    to 
    the 
    tense 

    and life 
    I've 
    been 
    spending 

    She 
    said 
    that 
    you've 
    been 
    seeking 

    fortun
    e 
    and 
    fame, 
    son 

    Our 
    two 
    problems 
    ain't 
    the 
    same, 
    son 

    My 
    nights 
    I 
    spend 
    fight

    ing 
    with 
    the 
    rich 
    man 

    My 
    days 
    are mostly 
    spent 

    Hillin' 
    tater 
    for 
    the rich 

    man 

    And 
    I 
    come 
    here 
    to 
    dig 
    the sweet 

    May 
    apple 

    Leave 
    here 
    in 
    a two 
    -soul 
    grap
    ple 

    Put 
    the rootin' 
    wag 
    on the 
    high 
    chair 

    One 
    high 
    shear
    ing 



    I 
    opened 
    my eyes 

    in the half 
    -moon 
    sky 

    And 
    I thought 
    I 
    saw 
    a 
    gold punk 
    high 

    I 
    thought 
    I saw 
    a black 
    woman 

    dig
    gin' 
    in the 
    ground 

    Turn 
    around 
    and 
    wave 
    good
    bye 

    From 
    the 

    Shelton 
    churchyard

      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.
