I was a stumble bummin' down
C

the neon Music City sidewalks
D

With the Junkie and the Juicehead who
C
G

had problems of their own

Stuck with luck it kept me standin'
C

just a step away from starvin'
D

And the talent that I swore I'd show
C
G

before I'd go back home
Verse 2
C

Ninety days I looked the army makin'

neither love nor money
G

And my only set of clothes was
A

gettin' closer to the bone

And the Junkie placed an order
C

with the Prophet on the corner
D

And he told him of the soul that he'd
C

been sellin' for a song
G
Verse 3

C

He said my future was my fortune
G

but I let it slip away
D

Slowly smokin' myself broke on

eighty cigarettes a day

Findin' out that crime ain't all
G

there is that doesn't pay
C

And writin' words that no one's
D

gonna see but did you said it who said it
Verse 4
C

I can read my fortune in
G

the bottom of a glass
D

And I can see it's time for me
G

to make my last request
C

Won't you fill my grave with whiskey
G

when I'm laid away to rest
D

So the boys can say I drank
G

myself to dead

Well I drank the whole thing over
C

puttin' one and two together
D

And it added up to more of
C
G

what I didn't want to be

I ain't blamin' Music City but
C

it's only gonna see me
D

One more day and the wake up and
C

the time it takes to leave

'Cause I got a dirty picture of

what could have been my future

In a Prophet pushin' day dreams

And the wino lookin' lonely

at a bottle gettin' empty

huntin' tea in sympathy

And I bet that junkie's laughin' after
G

the life he threw away

Slowly smokin' himself broke on
G

eighty cigarettes a day

Pleadin' down the Prophet to
G

a price that he can pay

And writin' words that no one's gonna
D
C

see but did you said it who said it

Every empty bottle is my
G

private crystal ball

And starin' into the future findin'
G

nothin' there at all

Which is what I'll miss tomorrow

when the neon shadows fall

  • 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.
