    Verse 1
    Carroll 
    County's 

    pointed 
    out 
    as 
    kind 
    of 
    square 

    The 
    biggest 
    thing 
    that 

    happens 
    is 
    the county 
    fair 

    I 
    guess 
    that's 
    why 
    it seemed 

    like 
    such 
    a 
    big 
    event 

    What 
    we 
    all 
    call 
    the 
    Carroll 

    County 
    accident 

    Verse 2
    The 
    wreck 
    was 
    on 
    the 
    highway 

    just 
    in
    side 
    the 
    line 

    Walter 
    Browning 
    lost 
    his 
    life 
    and 
    for 
    a 
    time 

    It 
    seemed 
    that 
    Mary 
    Ellen 

    Jones 
    would 
    surely 
    die 

    But 
    she 
    lived 
    long 
    enough 

    for 
    her 
    to 
    testify 

    Verse 3

    Walter 
    Browning 
    was 
    a 
    happy 
    married 
    man 

    And 
    he 
    wore 
    a 
    golden 
    wedding 

    ring 
    upon 
    his 
    hand 

    But 
    it 
    was 
    gone, 

    nobody 
    knew 
    just 
    where 
    it 
    went 

    He 
    lost 
    it 
    in 
    the 
    Carroll 
    County 
    accident 

    Verse 4
    Mary 
    Ellen 
    testified 
    he 
    flagged 
    her 
    down 

    Said 
    he 
    was 
    sick 
    and 
    could 

    she 
    drive 
    him 
    into 
    town 

    No 
    one 
    even 
    doubted 
    what 

    she 
    said 
    was 
    true 

    'Cause 
    she 
    was 
    well 

    respected 
    in 
    the 
    county 
    too 

    Verse 5
    I 
    went 
    down 
    to see 
    the 

    wreck 
    like 
    all 
    the 
    rest 

    The 
    bloody 
    seats, 
    the 
    broken 
    glass, 

    the 
    tangled 
    mess 

    But 
    I 
    found 
    something 
    no 
    one 

    else 
    had 
    even 
    seen 

    Behind 
    the 
    dash, 

    in 
    Mary's 
    crumpled 
    up 
    machine 

    Verse 6

    A 
    little 
    match 
    box 
    circled 
    by 
    a 
    rubber 
    band 

    And 
    inside, 

    the 
    ring 
    from 
    Wal
    ter 
    Browning's 
    hand 

    It 
    took 
    a 
    while 
    to 
    figure 
    out 

    just 
    what 
    it 
    meant 

    The 
    truth 
    about 
    the 
    Carroll 
    County 
    accident 

    Verse 7
    By 
    dark 
    of 
    night, 

    I 
    dropped 
    the 
    ring 
    into 
    a 
    well 

    And 
    took 
    a 
    sacred 
    oath 

    that 
    I 
    would 
    never 
    tell 

    The 
    truth 
    about 
    the 
    Carroll 

    County 
    accident 

    'Cause 
    the 
    County 
    ordered 

    dad 
    a 
    marble 
    monument 

    Verse 8
    I 
    lost 
    him 
    in 
    the 
    Carroll 
    County 
    accident

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
