    Verse 1
    When 
    the train 
    left 

    the station 
    my 
    baby 
    sat 
    there 
    cryin' 

    Sayin', 
    "Why 
    we 
    got 
    to go, 
    daddy, 

    down 
    to Charlotte 
    town? 

    'Cause 
    the road 
    is 
    long 

    and 
    the 
    way 
    is 
    hard 

    It's 
    so 
    peaceful 
    in our 
    own 
    back
    yard 

    So 
    why 
    we 
    got 
    to go 
    daddy? 

    Why 
    we 
    goin' 
    to go? 

    Just 
    give 
    me 
    one 
    good 
    reason 

    why 
    we 
    got 
    to go" 

    Verse 2

    Well, 
    I said, 
    "Honey 
    you 
    ain't 

    read 
    your 
    little 
    history 
    book 

    Better 
    dust 
    it 
    off 
    and 
    take 
    another 
    look 

    If 
    the 
    Democrats 
    don't 
    make 
    it, 

    then 
    I'll have 
    myself 
    to blame 

    If 
    we don't 
    raise 
    some 
    sand 
    then 

    our votes 
    might 
    slip 
    away 

    And 
    our civil 
    rights 
    and 
    our 
    equal 
    pay 

    And 
    then 
    it's 
    too 
    bad, 
    Jim, 

    for the 
    90 and 
    the 
    9" 

    'Cause 
    this 
    may 
    be 
    the 
    Verse 3
    last 
    time, 

    don't 
    know 

    don't 
    know, 
    honey, 
    don't 
    know 

    This 
    may 
    be 
    the last 
    time, 
    don't 
    know 

    It 
    may 
    be 
    the last 
    time 
    for 
    the 
    90 and 
    the 

    Verse 4
    They 
    promised 
    war 
    was 
    done 

    but peace 
    didn't 
    declare 

    Our 
    young 
    folks 
    are still 
    going 
    there 

    I didn't 
    raise 
    our 
    child 
    to 

    go 
    to war 
    this 
    time 

    Honey, 
    they're 
    just shooting 

    at the 
    90 and 
    the 

    Verse 5
    And 
    can't 
    un
    derstand 

    when 
    we're losin' 
    jobs 

    Why 
    they 
    go 
    jackin' 
    up 
    the price 
    on 
    gas 

    And 
    when 
    the moment's 
    right 

    the price 
    will fall 
    on 
    time 

    Honey, 
    they're 
    just 
    jackin' 

    with 
    the 
    90 and 
    the 

    Verse 6
    Well, 
    this 
    may 
    be 
    the last 
    time, 

    don't 
    know 

    I don't 
    know, 
    honey, 
    don't 
    know 

    May 
    be 
    the 
    last 
    time, 
    don't 
    know 

    It 
    may 
    be 
    the last 
    time 
    for 
    the 
    90 and 

    the 



    Verse 7
    Now 
    yonder 
    comes 
    brother 

    on 
    his way 
    from 
    town 

    Let's 
    make 
    his 
    acquaintance 
    and 

    then 
    we'll sit 
    right 
    down 

    Say
    in' 
    how 
    goes 
    the battle, 

    what 
    news 
    do 
    you hear? 

    What's 
    the 
    circumstances 
    for 

    working 
    folks 
    'round 
    here? 

    Let's 
    have 
    a cup 
    of coffee, 

    spend 
    a pleasant 
    time 

    We're 
    all 
    paid- 
    up 
    members 

    of 
    the 
    90 and 
    the 

    Verse 8
    Now 
    this 
    may 
    be 
    the 
    last 
    time, 

    don't 
    know 

    don't 
    know 
    but 
    could 
    be 
    wrong 

    wonder 
    what 
    would 
    brother 
    Pete 
    say 

    hope 
    it's 
    not 
    the last 
    time 
    for 
    the 
    90 and 

    the 9

    • 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.
