    About the time that Daddy

    left to fight the big war
    D

    I saw my first pistol in the general store

    In the general store when

    I was thirteen

    Thought it was the finest
    G

    thing I ever had seen

    L asked if I could have one

    someday when I grew up

    Mama dropped a dozen eggs,
    D

    she really blew up

    Really blew up, I didn't understand

    Mama said,"The pistol is
    G

    the devil's right hand"
    C

    The devil's right hand
    G

    The devil's right hand
    D

    Mama said,"The pistol
    G

    Is the devil's right hand

    My very first pistol was

    a cap and ball Colt

    Shoot as fast as lightnin' but
    D

    it loads a mite slow

    Loads a mite slow and soon I found out

    It can get you into trouble but
    G

    it can't get you out

    So then I went and

    bought myself a Colt 45

    Called a Peacemaker but
    D

    I never knew why

    Never knew why, I didn't understand

    Mama said,
    G

    "The pistol is the devil's right hand"
    C

    The devil's right hand

    Well I get into a card game

    in a company town

    Caught a miner cheating,
    D

    I shot the dog down

    Shot the dog down,

    I watched the man fall

    Never touched his holster,
    G

    never had a chance to draw
    C
    G

    The trial was in the morning and they

    [Incomprehensible] me out of bed

    Asked me how I pleaded,
    D

    "Not guilty" I said

    "Not guilty", I said,

    you've got the wrong man

    Nothing touched the trigger but
    G

    the devil's right hand
    C

    The devil's right hand

    The devil's right hand

    Nothing touched the trigger
    G

    But the devil's right hand
    D

    My Mama said,"The pistol
    G

    Is the devil's right hand"

    • 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.
