  • Intro 1
    Here 
    lies 
    Lester 
    Moore 

    Four 
    slugs 
    from 
    44 

    No 
    less, 
    no 
    more 

    Verse 1
    Out 
    in 
    Ari
    zona, 
    just 
    south 
    of 
    Tuc
    son 

    Where 
    tumbleweeds 
    tumble 

    in 
    search 
    of 
    home 

    There's 
    town 
    they 
    call 
    Tombstone 

    where 
    the 
    brave 
    never 
    cry 

    They 
    live 
    by 
    sixgun, 

    by 
    sixgun 
    they 
    die 

    Verse 2
    It's 
    been 
    long 
    time 
    now 

    since 
    the 
    town 
    was 
    boom 

    The 
    jailhouse 
    is 
    empty, 
    so's 
    the 
    Palace 
    Sa
    loon 

    Just 
    one 
    look 
    will 
    tell 
    you 

    that 
    this 
    town 
    was 
    real 

    secluded 
    old 
    dirt 
    road 

    leads 
    up 
    to 
    Boot 
    Hill 

    Verse 3
    Walk 
    up 
    to 
    the 
    fence 
    there 

    and 
    look 
    at 
    the 
    view 

    That's 
    where 
    they 
    were 
    hanging, 
    188

    It's 
    easy 
    to 
    see 
    where 

    the 
    brave 
    men 
    have 
    died 

    Rope 
    marks 
    on 
    the 
    oak 
    tree 

    are 
    now 
    petri
    fied 

    Verse 4
    At 
    night 
    when 
    the 
    moon 
    shines 
    so 
    far 
    a
    way 

    It 
    gets 
    mighty 
    lonesome 

    looking 
    down 
    on 
    their 
    graves 

    There 
    lies 
    Billy 
    Clanton, 
    never 
    wanted 
    to 
    kill 

    But 
    he's 
    there 
    with 
    the 
    guilty 

    way 
    up 
    on 
    Boot 
    Hill 
    (Boot 
    Hill)

    • 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.
