  • Verse 1
    She 
    was 
    drivin' 

    across 
    Nevada 

    When 
    her 
    Chevrolet broke 
    down 

    Out 
    in the 
    middle 
    of the 
    dessert 

    Miles 
    from the 
    nearest 
    town 

    She 
    spied 
    this 
    little 
    ole' 
    rundown 
    shack 

    Sit
    tin' 
    on 
    the side 
    of the hill 

    On the 
    porch 
    was 
    a man 

    and 
    above 
    his head 

    Was 
    a sign 
    that said The 
    Golden 
    Lil 

    He 
    was 
    leather 
    tanned 
    and bearded 

    She 
    couldn't 
    tell 
    just 
    how 
    old 

    He 
    said 
    come 
    on 
    in, 
    my name's 
    Jake 

    These 
    dessert 
    night
    s get 
    cold 

    He 
    laid 
    out 
    supper 
    and 

    he watched 
    her close 

    And she 
    ate 
    by the 
    coal 
    oil light 

    And he said, 
    girl, 

    I bet 
    ya don't 
    know it 

    But you're 
    sittin' 
    on 
    a gold 
    mine 

    Verse 2
    Girl, 
    you're 
    sit
    tin' 
    on 
    a gold 
    mine 

    No 
    tellin' 
    what 
    it's worth 

    Some 
    folks 
    gets 
    to 
    be 
    mighty 
    well 
    off 

    From 
    just 
    a little 
    dirt 

    He said, 
    love 
    and 
    gold 
    are 

    the only 
    two 
    things 

    That can 
    buy 
    a better 
    way 
    of life 

    And 
    ya may not 
    know 
    it 
    but, 
    girl 

    You're 
    sit
    tin' 
    on 
    gold 
    mine 

    Verse 3

    It was 
    two weeks 
    later 
    when 

    a Greyhound 
    bus 

    Dropped 
    off the 
    needed 
    parts 

    And in that 
    short 
    time 

    she'd 
    weaved 
    he way 

    In
    to the 
    old 
    man's 
    heart 

    They 
    laughed 
    and 
    joked 

    while they 
    fixed 
    the car 

    And 
    she 
    packed 
    up 
    for L.A. 

    And 
    as 
    she drove 
    away 

    from the 
    Golden 
    Lil 

    She heard 
    old Jake

    • 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.
