Drugging,
got one chip stashed in,
G
keep drugging,
A
like the two dumb men together,
For a blessing light,
G
D
Dsus4
D
just keep truckin' on
Arrows of neon are flashin' like
these out on Main Street
Chicago, New York, Detroit,
and it's on the same street
Your typical city involved
in a difficult daydream
Hang it up and see
what tomorrow brings.
Dallas, got a soft machine.
G
Houston, too close to New Orleans.
A
New York, got the ways and means,
G
D
but just won't let you be.
Most of the cats that you
meet on the streets
speak of true love,
most of the time they're sittin'
and cryin' at home.
One of these days they know
G
D
they gotta get goin',
out the door and down to the
street all alone.
Truckin' like the doodah man
G
Once told me got to play your hand

Sometimes the cards ain't worth a dime

If you don't lay them down

D
What a long, strange trip it's been
What in the world ever became
of sweet Jane?
She's lost her sparkle,
G
you know she isn't the same
D
Living on reds, vitamin C, and cocaine,
G
all a friend can say is,
D
ain't it a shame?
G
Truckin' out to Buffalo, been thinking,
A
Em
you got to mellow slow, takes time,
A
Em
G
you pick a place to go,
D
just keep truckin' on.
I like to get some sleep before I travel,
but if you got a warrant
I guess you're gonna come in.
Busted down a bourbon street.
G
Set off like a bowling beat.
Knocked down,

You're sick of hangin' around

G
D
Get tired of travelin'
and you wanna settle down
I guess they can't revoke
G
D
your soul for tryin'
Get out of the door,

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
