  • Verse 1
    Some 
    punk with 
    a shotgun 

    killed 
    young 
    Danny 
    Bailey 

    In cold 
    blood, 

    in the 
    lobby 
    of 
    downtown 
    motel 

    Killed 
    him 
    in 
    anger, 

    force 
    he couldn't 
    handle 

    Helped 
    pull 
    the trigger 
    that 

    cut 
    short 
    his life 

    And there's 
    not 
    many 
    knew 

    him 
    the way 
    that 
    we did 

    Sure 
    enough 
    he was 
    a wild 
    one, 

    but 
    then 
    aren't 
    most 
    hungry 
    kids, 
    oh, 
    oh? 

    Verse 2
    Now 
    it's 
    all 
    over 
    Danny 
    Bailey 

    And 
    the harvest 
    is in 

    Dillinger
    's dead, 
    oh 

    I guess 
    the cops 
    won 
    again 

    Now 
    it's 
    all 
    over 
    Danny 
    Bailey 

    And 
    the harvest 
    is in 

    Verse 3
    We're 
    running 
    short 
    of heroes 

    back 
    up here 
    in the 
    hills 

    Without 
    Danny 
    Bailey 
    we're 
    gonna 

    have to 
    break 
    up 
    our stills 

    So mark 
    his grave 
    well 
    'cause 

    Kentucky 
    loved 
    him 

    Born 
    and raised 
    a proper, 

    guess 
    life 
    just 
    bugged 
    him, 
    and 
    he 

    Found 
    faith 
    in danger, 

    a lifestyle 
    he lived 
    by 

    run
    ning-gun 
    youngster 
    youngster 
    in 
    sad, 

    restless 
    age, 
    oh, oh 


    Verse 4
    Now 
    it's 
    all 
    over 
    Danny 

    Bailey 

    And 
    the harvest 
    is in 

    Dillinger
    's dead 

    I guess 
    the cops 
    won 
    again, 
    oh 

    Now 
    it's 
    all 
    over 
    Danny 
    Bailey 

    And 
    the harvest 
    is in

    • 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.
