  • Intro 1


    Verse 1
    Parched 
    land 
    no 
    desert 
    sand, 

    sun 
    is 
    just 
    dot 

    And 
    little 
    bit 
    of 
    water 
    goes 
    long 
    way, 

    'cause 
    it's 
    hot 

    Three 
    good 
    buddies 

    were 
    laughin' 
    and 
    smoking 

    in 
    the 
    back 
    of 
    rented 
    Ford 

    They 
    couldn't 
    know 
    they 
    weren't 
    going 
    far 

    Interlude 1

    Chorus 1
    Each 
    one 
    with 
    the 
    money 
    in 
    his 
    pocket 

    Could 
    go 
    out 
    and 
    buy 
    him
    self 

    brand 
    new 
    car 

    But 
    they 
    all 
    held 
    the 
    money 
    they 
    had 

    Money 
    they 
    hoped 

    would 
    take 
    them 
    very 
    far 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 2
    Sky's 
    bright, 
    the 
    traffic 
    light, 

    now 
    and 
    then 
    truck 

    And 
    they 
    hadn't 
    seen 
    cop 
    around 
    all 
    day 

    (What 
    luck) 

    They 
    brought 
    everything 
    they 
    needed 

    Bags 
    and 
    scales 
    to 
    weigh 
    the 
    stuff 

    The 
    driver 
    said 
    the 
    border's 
    just 
    over 
    the 
    bluff 

    Interlude 3


    Chorus 2
    It 
    wasn't 
    until 
    the 
    car 
    suddenly 
    stopped 

    In 
    the 
    middle 
    of 
    cold 
    and 
    barren 
    plain 

    And 
    the 
    other 
    guy 
    turned 
    and 
    spilled 

    three 
    boys' 
    blood 

    Did 
    they 
    know 
    trap 
    had 
    been 
    laid? 

    Interlude 4

    Verse 3
    They're 
    okay, 
    the 
    last 
    days 
    of 
    May, 

    but 
    I'll 
    be 
    breathin' 
    dry 
    air 

    I'm 
    leaving 
    soon, 
    the 
    others 
    are 
    already 
    there 

    You 
    wouldn't 
    be 
    interested 
    in 
    coming 
    along, 

    instead 
    of 
    staying 
    here? 

    It's 
    said 
    the 
    West 
    is 
    nice 
    this 
    time 
    of 
    year, 

    Outro 1
    that's 
    what 
    they 
    say

    • 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.
