    • Verse 1
    It 
    was 
    early 
    one 
    morning, 

    I 
    walked 
    into 
    town, 

    And 
    in 
    sweet 
    recreation 

    I 
    was 
    strollin' 
    around. 

    When I 
    spied 
    this 
    hotel 

    in 
    the 
    poor 
    afternoon, 

    That 
    was 
    sporting 
    a 
    sign, 

    said 
    the red 
    light 
    saloon. 

    So 
    I 
    boldly 
    walked 
    in 

    and 
    I 
    stepped 
    to 
    the bar, 

    Where 
    a 
    pretty 
    young 
    lady 
    said, 

    Have a 
    cigar. 

    I 
    took 
    that 
    cigar, 

    saying 
    thanks 
    for the 
    boon, 

    But 
    she 
    said 
    that's 
    our 
    way 

    In 
    the red 
    light 
    saloon. 

    Then 
    she 
    mussed 
    up my 
    hair 

    and 
    sat down 
    on 
    my 
    knee 

    Saying, 
    you 
    are 
    a 
    logger, 

    it's 
    easy 
    to 
    see 

    Saying, 
    you 
    are 
    a 
    lumberjack, 

    that 
    we 
    all 
    know 

    Oh, 
    your muscles 
    are 
    hard 

    from 
    your 
    head 
    to 
    your 
    toe 

    She 
    pro
    ceeded 
    to 
    test 
    if 

    my 
    muscles 
    were 
    right, 

    Till 
    I 
    smoked 
    that 
    cigar 

    without 
    striking 
    the 
    light. 

    My 
    head 
    it was 
    rising 
    like 
    a 
    balloon 

    from 
    the 
    treatment 
    I 
    got 
    in 

    the 
    red 
    light 
    saloon. 

    It 
    was 
    early 
    next 
    morning, 

    I 
    bid 
    her 
    good 
    -bye. 

    She 
    waved 
    from 
    the 
    window 

    with 
    a 
    tear 
    in 
    her 
    eye. 

    So 
    I 
    did 
    not 
    discover 
    till 
    the middle 
    of 
    June 

    I 
    was 
    carrying 
    a 
    keepsake 

    of 
    the 
    red 
    -light 
    sa
    loon. 

    Well, 
    I cursed 
    that 
    young 
    lady 

    till 
    the 
    heaven 
    turned 
    blue 

    And 
    with 
    whiskey 
    and 
    wo
    men 

    I 
    swore 
    I 
    was 
    through 

    But 
    with 
    all 
    of 
    my 
    swear
    ing 

    I'd 
    give 
    my 
    fortune 

    Just 
    to be 
    back 
    in 
    bed 

    in 
    the 
    red 
    light 
    salute.

      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 🙂

      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.
