    Verse 1
    His 
    footsteps 
    echo softly 

    through 
    the early 
    mornin' 
    hours 

    The 
    slowness 
    of his 

    moves should 
    be a 
    warning 

    But 
    from the 
    trash he 
    digs 
    a pair of 
    socks 

    and 
    yester
    day's 
    flowers, 

    what 
    a 
    way to 
    start a 

    Monday morning. 

    He 
    might have 
    been a 
    carpenter 

    at 
    one time 
    in his 
    life, 

    And 
    he 
    built a 
    lot of 

    homes, but 
    never had 
    one 

    Or 
    he 
    could have 
    been a 
    poet who 

    had come up 
    on some 
    hard times 

    And 
    all that 
    he had 
    left was 

    just his 
    sad 
    poems 

    ... 

    He 
    could have 
    been a 

    singer with 
    a 
    lot of 
    promise 

    But 
    cigarettes 
    and 
    whiskey 
    run 
    his 
    throat 

    It 
    was 
    hard 
    to remember 
    even 
    a 
    simple tune 

    Or 
    the 
    words to 
    song
    s that 

    he had 
    wrote 

    Take 
    me 
    back to 

    Memphis, 

    I've 
    got to 
    do some 
    thinkin' 

    Cause 
    I've been 
    in this 
    city way 
    too 
    long 

    An
    d 
    it lays 
    heavy 
    on my 

    mind when 
    I see another 

    the 
    man having 
    to 
    make the 

    sidewalk
    s 
    his home.

    • 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.”
