Verse 1
D
Jimmy Driftwood wrote this thing.
Hello there. One, two, three.
Do we want to try a break?
Now,
now your fiddle break comes right after
I get back and whoop her
brother and her paw and sing a chorus.
Now that is about as pretty a bass
line
as I've heard played
in something in a long time.
I have to compliment that
boy back there.
That's a horse's foot in the gravel,
man.
G
D
That ain't trained.
Running through a ford in the creek.
Let's see if we can put
down a take.
A
D
Where's the harmony at, right here?
Along about 1825
C
I left Tennessee very much alive
D
And I never would have got
through the Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a -ruddin'
that Tennessee stud
I had some trouble with
my sweetheart's pa
C
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw
D
I sent her a letter by my uncle's foot
Then I rode away on
A
the Tennessee stud
D
The Tennessee stud was
C
D
long and lean
G
The color of the sun and
Bb
A
his eyes were green
D
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse
like the Tennessee stud
We drifted on down into no man's land
C
We crossed that river called Rio Grande
D
I raced my horse with a Spaniard's foal
A
D
Till he got me a skin full of silver and gold
Me and a gambler, we couldn't agree
C
We got in a fight over Tennessee
D
We jerked our guns and he fell with a thud
And I got away on the Tennessee stud
C
D
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
G
The color of the sun and
Bb
A
his eyes were green
D
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse
like the Tennessee stud
Well, I got just as lonesome as a man can be
C
A -dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee
D
The Tennessee stud's green
eyes turned blue
Cause he was a -dreamin' of
a sweetheart too
We loped right back across Arkansas
C
I whooped her brother and
I whooped her paw
D
But when I found that
girl with the golden hair
A
She was a -ridin' that Tennessee mare
D
C
D
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
G
Bb
A
The color of the sun in his eyes was green
D
C
D
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse
G
like the Tennessee stud
Bb
A
D
C
D
C
We crossed them mountains
and the valleys wide
D
We came to Big Muddy,
then we forded a flood
On the Tunisie mare
and the Tunisie stud
There's a pretty little baby
on the cabin floor
C
A little horse coat
playin' round in the dome
D
I love that girl with the golden hair
And the Tennessee stud
loves the Tennessee mare
Says good horses
C
D
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
G
The color of the sun
Bb
A
and his eyes were green
D
He had the nerve and
C
D
he had the blood
And there never was a horse
D
like the Tennessee stud

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 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
