Tommy & Joe easy guitar chords by
Fred Eaglesmith
Fred Eaglesmith

N/A
Verse 1
D

Tommy and Joe,

they lived out their lives
A
Bm

amongst the wrenches and the

grease and the glass and the tires,
D

ran a little garage on 65
A
Bm

and they pumped a little gas

to the cars that went by.
G

On Saturday night, they shut it down,
A

they sat on the steps
Bm

and watched the cars roll into town.
A
D
Bm
G

Tommy and Joe, they lived out their lives
Bm

and married to the wrenches

like husbands and wives.
D

Didn't know nothin',

there was nothin' to know.
A
Bm

Except if it wouldn't run,

they could make it go.
G

Grease on the floor, mud on the ground.
A
Bm

Fill it up, and shut it down.
G

Tommy and Joe,

they never wanted much,
Bm

just the ticking of the engine,

the slipping of the clutch,
G

the breaking of the tires,

the whining of the wheels,
Bm
G

the driving of the pistons,
A
Bm

spark and fuel, oil and steel.
G
D

and then Detroit change the rules
A
Bm

fixing cars without any tools
D

turn on the switches
Bm

switch on the lights

look at the screen you're out of time
G

lock up the door change the sign
A
Bm

shut off the pumps
G

Tommy and Joe,

they never wanted much,
Bm

just the ticket of the engine,

the slippin' of the clutch,
G

the breakin' of the tires,

the windin' of the wheels,
Bm

the drivin' of the piston,
G
A
Bm

spark and fuel, oil and steel.
D

Tommy and Joe, they lived out their lives
Bm

in some old shack out in sixty -five
D

Out on the porch with a bottle of rye,
Bm

calling out the years

of the cars that went by
G

Blood on your knuckles,

a twinkle in your eye,
A

number nine cylinders,
Bm

a little dry
G

Tommy and Joe,

they never wanted much,
Bm

just the ticking of the engine,

the slipping of the clutch,
G

the breaking of the tires,

the winding of the wheels,
Bm

the driving of the Piston,
G
A
Bm

spark, and fuel, oil, and steel,
G
A

spark, and fuel, oil,
Bm
Em
Bm

and steel.

  • 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.
