    Verse 1
    Well, 
    there 
    is 
    only 
    one 

    reason 
    I stop 
    in 
    this 
    place 

    Let 
    me stress 
    that 
    it 
    ain't 
    the 
    cuisine 

    The 
    eggs 
    are 
    all 
    runny, 

    the hash-browns 
    smell 
    smell 
    funny 
    and the 
    coffee 
    taste 
    like 
    gasol
    ine 

    But 
    there 
    goes 
    the 
    one 
    thing 
    that 
    I've 
    been 

    looking 
    forward 
    to 
    for 
    the 
    last 
    600 miles 

    In 
    a slow 
    motion 
    pan, 

    eight 
    beers 
    in each 
    hand 

    What's 
    here 
    of 
    heaven 
    in 
    her 
    smile 

    Verse 2
    She's 
    the 
    prettiest 
    waitress 
    in Mem
    phis 

    and 
    I think 
    she's 
    flirting 
    with 
    me 

    Readin' 
    them 
    specials 
    extra 
    special, 

    slipped 
    her finger 
    into 
    my 
    sweet 
    tea 

    O' 
    but 
    a small 
    stack 
    of singles 
    from 
    a 
    hard 

    double-shift 
    will 
    will 
    do 
    terrible 
    things 
    to 
    a 
    smile 

    And 
    the prettiest 
    waitress 
    in 
    Memphis 
    knows 

    Interlude 1
    she's 
    only 
    that 
    way 
    for 
    a while 


    Verse 3
    Well 
    somehow 
    she 
    remembered 
    my 
    name 
    though 
    it's 

    been 
    several 
    months 
    since 
    I 
    passed 
    through 
    this 
    way 

    She 
    said 
    she's 
    lived 
    here 
    all 
    her twenty 
    three 

    years 
    I said 
    I'd 
    be 
    here 
    for 
    a 
    day 

    Ordered 
    the pecan 
    pie 
    and in 
    the wink 
    of 

    eye 
    I 
    got 
    a slice 
    as 
    big 
    as 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    her name 
    and 
    her number 
    on a sweet-n-low 
    package 

    package 
    package 
    is 
    the 
    best 
    poem 
    that 
    I've 
    ever 
    read 

    Verse 4
    She 
    is 
    the 
    prettiest 
    waitress 
    in 
    Memphis 
    and 

    I 
    know 
    she's 
    flirting 
    with 
    me 

    Readin' 
    them 
    specials 
    extra 
    special, 

    slipped 
    her finger 
    into 
    my 
    sweet 
    tea 

    O' 
    but 
    a small 
    stack 
    of singles 
    from a 
    hard 

    double-shift 
    will 
    will 
    do 
    terrible 
    things 
    to 
    a smile 

    And 
    the 
    prettiest 
    waitress 
    in 
    Memphis 
    knows 
    she's 
    only 

    Interlude 2
    that 
    way 
    for 
    a while 




    Verse 5
    Well 
    the prettiest 
    waitress 
    in 
    Memphis, 

    she spilled 
    her 
    heart 
    all 
    over 
    me 

    And 
    the way 
    she 
    was 
    right 
    as 
    I held 

    her 
    that 
    night 
    'n 
    she 
    said 

    "This'll 
    all 
    change 
    eventually." 

    Verse 6
    Cause 
    she 
    ain't 
    the 
    prettiest 

    waitress 
    in 
    Memphis 
    no 
    more 

    But it's 
    not 
    what 
    you're 

    thinking 
    you see 

    The 
    prettiest 
    waitress 
    in 

    Memphis 
    just 
    quit 

    And she's 
    leavin' 
    Memphis 
    with 
    me 

    Now, 
    the 
    prettiest 
    ex-waitress 
    in 
    in 
    all 
    of Memph

    is 
    is 
    leaving 
    Memphis 
    with 
    me

      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

      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.
