They come in them big ten wheelers,

rollin' down the highway

from Illinois and Nebraska and Oregon,
too.
G
D
Carryin' apples and automobiles
Em
D
to California, mostly.
G
Down from the mountains to
D
G
where there's sun.
D
Every one of them's the son of a gun.
G
D
A loner living out of the back of his cab,
turning on his smile
G
D
for the waitress
at the next truck stop.
G
D
Outside wind is singing,
slow down baby,
G
you're almost there.
D
Around the bend there's a
G
D
truck stop waiting,
G
maybe the Golden Gate,
D
with seagulls in her hair.
Their names are Thompson and Black
G
D
and Drellsford, Lucky Jim.
Some of them got badges
on big silver belt buckles
A
A5
D
Em
that say Daredevil or Kansas
D
City or Freewheeler.
G
D
They're all freewheelers,
lovin' off the land,
sleepin' in the cabs of their trucks,
curled up there in the boot,
Bb
dreamin' themselves in
D
other places.
Meanwhile,
the world drives by on the highway,
and every breakfast
is a brand -new breakfast table
at the truck stop up the road.
G
D
the wind is singing,
slow down baby,
G
D
Em
you're almost there.
D
Round the bend there's
G
D
a truck stop waiting,
G
maybe the golden day,
D
with seagulls in her hair.
A
D
Sometimes you see them
G
kicking at their tires
Em
D
along the highway,
or hogging the road from
G
from some dude
D
who tried to pass him on a hill.
They don't talk much.
Em
D
They're friendlier to strangers
and to their own.
G
You get them talking, though,
D
and that's something else.
They tell you about women
they've never been with,
towns they ain't never seen.
Don't argue with them,
let them talk.
They're mean as beavers.
But they're easy, too.
You ask one of them waitresses
at one of them truck stops,
she'll tell you.
G
D
Outside the wind is singing
G
D
Slow down, baby,
G
D
you're almost there
G
Round the bend there's a truck,
D
stop waitin'
Maybe the Golden Gate
G
D
with seagulls in her hair
G
D
Outside the wind is singing
G
D
Slow down, baby,
G
D
you're almost there
Round the bend there's
G
D
a truck stopping
G
Maybe the golden gay
D
With seagulls in her hair

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
