Skid Row Joe chords by 
Porter Wagoner

Verse 1
A
Em
G
D
Skid Row Joe
Last night that's who I found
G
in the dirty part of town
A
D
Lost forgotten with no place to go
A
D
Tormented with a bitter taste out
G
cast by the human race
A
A mask of torture was the
D
face of Skid Row Joe
Verse 2
D
A
D
He walked up to where I stood on the street
G
Said, "Pardon me Mister now don't get me wrong,
D
I don't want your money
A
Though Heaven knows I could use it
But you see this is my home and you
D
see the other bar down the street
G
Well, that's my home too
I noticed you starin' at me a while ago,
D
you recognized me didn't you?"
A
I said, "Yeah Joe, I know who you are
D
You was one time a real famous singing
star one of my favorites"
He said, "Well I guess you heard they
G
took my babies away from me"
I said, "Yeah Joe, I,
D
I read about it in the papers"
Verse 3
D
Then he turned his head away and
A
I saw the tears fall in the place
And he turned to me and he said,
D
"You know Mister
This is the only place in the world that
G
I'm not ashamed to show my face
But I'm gonna quit, yes sir,
D
I'm gonna quit
A
And I'm gonna shave and comb my hair,
D
and get me a clean white shirt
Then I'm gonna walk up to her door
When she answers I'm gonna
G
stand up real proud and tall
D
Then I'm gonna get on my knees
And I'll say, 'sweetheart,
A
if you'll take me back
I'll spend the rest of my life makin' up
D
to you for what I've done
I'm so ashamed of myself
G
and this I want you to know'
Then I'm gonna take my two little babies
D
and I'm gonna hold 'em so close to me
A
D
I ain't gonna never let 'em go"
I guess I should've told him then that
G
she'd already remarried again
But after hearin' what
he'd said to me
Why there wasn't no way I
D
could add to his misery
So I said good luck,
A
my best to you, Skid Row Joe
D

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

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
