D
G
Back in 1927,
A
E
I had a little farm
A
and I called that heaven,
D
G
the prices up
and the rain come down,
A
and I hauled my crops all into town,
D
G
I got the money.
D
G
Bought clothes and groceries
A
and a rare pack
Fed the kids and raised
D
G
A
D
me a family
G
The rain quit, the wind got high
A
And a black hole dust storm filled the sky
D
G
And I swapped my farm for a ford machine
A
And I forded full of this gas
I leeked and started
D
G
Rockin' and rollin' out
A
of the dust bowl
E
A
Travelin' across the mountains,
D
way over towards that old pizza place,
G
A
D
Bm
D
the Isle of Oranges.
G
A
D
It was way up yonder in a
G
mountain road
A
that had a hot motor and a heavy load.
D
And I was goin' pretty fast,
G
it wasn't even stoppin',
D
just a -bouncin' up and
A
down like popcorn.
E
A
D
Poppin' had a breakdown.
G
Kind of a sort of a nervous
bust down there
A
Some kind was a feller there,
E
A
a mechanic feller
D
Charged me thirteen dollars,
G
A
D
G
A
said it was N -Giant Puppets
D
Yeah, way up yonder in a
G
mountain road
A
D
Way high up in a piney wood
G
And I gave that Ford a rollin' shove
A
E
And I was gonna coast as fur as I could
A
D
Commence to roast
G
A
Pickin' up speed was a hairpin turn,
D
G
A
I did make it!
D
G
Man alive, I'm a -tellin' you,
A
the fiddles me guitars really flew,
D
G
that Ford took off like a blind squirrel
A
E
and it flew halfway around the world,
D
G
scattered wives and childrens
A
all over the side of that
D
G
A
D
mountain.
G
We got out to the west coast, broke,
A
so dad got me hungry,
I thought I'd croak,
D
G
and I bummed up a spud or two,
A
D
and my wife fixed up a tater stew.
G
We poured the kid full of it.
A
It a mighty thin stew, though,
you could read the magazine
E
A
D
G
A
D
right through it.
I always have figured
G
that if that student had been
A
just a little bit thinner,
some of them there politicians
A
D
could have seen through it.

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
