    Look 
    at that 
    headlight 

    shining 
    through the 
    rain 

    Well 
    it 
    must be 
    that old 

    Santa 

    Fe freight 
    train 

    I'm 
    standing 
    on salty 
    old 
    tile on 

    an old 
    adobe porch 

    Across the 
    street, 
    the 

    Baptist 
    church, 

    God's 
    own neon torch. 

    Well 
    my baby's 
    sleepin' 
    safe in
    side, 

    I'm the shadow, 
    she's the 
    light. 

    Now here 
    comes 
    the sound of 
    the 

    Santa 

    Fe at 
    midnight. 

    Baby wakes 
    up and 
    calls 
    to me, what 

    is that 
    lonesome 
    sound? 

    It 
    echoes 
    off the 
    mountain, 

    out 
    near 
    the 
    lights of 
    town 

    I 
    say, 
    hush now, 

    I'll come to 
    you, oh 
    de 
    woe, so 
    tight 

    And 
    rock you to 
    the sound of 
    the 

    Santa 

    Fe 
    at 
    midnight 

    Blowing 
    through those 

    cotton field
    s near 
    the 

    Canateo 

    River 
    breaks 

    Past 
    the 
    shanty 
    towns 
    of 
    old 

    Walrath, 
    the 

    Eagle 
    and the 

    Snake 

    Blow
    ing across 

    West 

    Texas, 
    rat
    tling our 
    home 
    site 

    The 
    music 
    of the 

    Santa 

    Fe at 
    mid
    night 

    I'm 
    making 
    love to 
    the sound of 
    the 

    Santa 

    Fe 
    at 
    midnight 


    Well, 
    look where 
    we have 
    ended 
    up 

    On 
    the edge of 
    the great southwest 

    Star
    ing 
    at those 
    restless 
    trees along 

    the 
    water ditch. 

    And up the 
    street the 

    Rio 

    Grande 
    like 

    Egypt's 
    old 

    Blue 

    Nile, 

    With 
    a memory 
    of 
    the early ones 
    who 

    rested 
    here 
    a 
    while. 

    But now the 
    freight trains 
    and 
    long -haul 
    trucks, 

    they're 
    passing 
    through. 

    And 
    they don't 
    have the 
    urge to 

    wink at 
    the likes of 
    me and 
    you 

    It's 
    all just 
    diesel smoke, 
    iron rail, 

    and 
    a 
    running string 
    of 
    lights 

    The 
    music 
    of the 

    Santa 

    Fe 
    at 
    midnight 

    Blowing 
    through those 

    cotton field
    s near 
    the 

    Canateo 

    River 
    breaks 

    Past 
    the 
    shanty 
    towns of 
    old 

    Juarez, 
    the 
    eagle 
    and the 
    snake 

    Blow
    ing across 

    West 

    Texas, 
    rat
    tling out 
    of 
    sight 

    The 
    music 
    of the 

    Santa 

    Fe 
    at 
    midnight 

    Making 
    love to 
    the sound of 
    the 

    Santa 

    Fe at 
    midnight 

    ... 

    ... 

    ... 

    ... 

    Thank 
    you.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
