    Verse 1
    Passed 
    a 

    little 
    town 
    about 
    an 
    hour 
    ago 

    Somewhere 
    in 
    the 
    desert 

    in 
    New 
    Mexico 

    Thinking 
    about 
    something 

    that 
    my 
    baby 
    said 

    Stop 
    and 
    get 
    me 
    something 

    for 
    my 
    aching 
    head 

    Run 
    into 
    a 
    truck 
    stop, 

    parked 
    by 
    the 
    tire 
    shop 

    Kill 
    about 
    an 
    hour 
    or 
    so 

    Headed 
    down 
    on 
    the 
    highway, 

    trying 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    living 
    on 
    the 
    road 

    Heat 
    waves 
    coming 
    out 
    above 
    my 
    stacks 

    All 
    pressure 
    steady 
    and 
    my 

    coffee's 
    black 

    Highway 
    Patrol 
    and 
    the 
    DOT 

    Not 
    to 
    even 
    mention 
    X, 
    Y 
    and 
    Z 

    And 
    go 
    to 
    L 
    .A., 
    turn 
    around, 

    come 
    back 
    to 
    Cowtown, 

    drop 
    off 
    another 
    heavy 
    load. 

    Verse 2
    And then 
    it's 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    highway, 

    trying 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    living 
    on 
    the 
    road. 



    I 
    don't 
    need 
    a 
    road 
    map, 
    I 
    know 
    my 
    way 

    I've 
    been 
    drivin' 
    this 

    road 
    both 
    night 
    and 
    day 

    I 
    ain't 
    worried 
    about 
    places 

    that 
    I've 
    seen 
    or 
    been 

    I 
    just 
    want 
    to 
    see 
    my 
    baby 
    again 

    When 
    I'm 
    tired 
    but 
    I 
    can't 
    stop 

    Watch 
    out 
    for 
    fallin' 
    rocks 

    Speed's 
    gonna 
    hit 
    your 
    soul 

    In 
    any 
    town 
    on 
    the 
    highway 

    trying 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    living 
    on 
    the 
    road. 

    I'm 
    standing 
    down 
    on 
    the 
    highway 

    trying 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    living 
    on 
    the 
    road.

      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

      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.
