Tying Knots In The Devil's Tail chords by 
Colter Wall 
Key: F major•BPM: 110
Verse 1
D
Well, it was way high up in the Sierry Petes
A
Where the yellow pines grow tall
Rusty Diggs and Sandy Sam
D
Had a round-up camp last fall
They had their ponies and their running irons
G
And maybe a dog or two
A
And they 'lowed they'd brand
every lop-eared calf
D
That came within their view
Verse 2
D
Well many a lop-eared dogie
A
If he didn't hush up by day
Had his long ears whittled
and his old hide scorched
D
In a most artistic way
Then says Rusty Diggs to Sandy Sam
G
As he throwed his seago down
A
"I'm tired of cowbiography
D
"And I figures I'll go to town"
Interlude 1

Verse 3
D
They starts her in at the Kentucky Bar
A
At the head of the Whisky Row
And they ends her up at the Depot House
D
And forty drinks below
Then he winds her up
and they turns her 'round
G
And they goes her the other way
A
Tell you the Lord-forsaken truth
D
Them boys got drunk that day
Verse 4
D
Well, they was a-headin' back to camp
A
And a-packin' a mighty good load
Who should they meet but the Devil himself
D
Come prancin' down the road?
And the Devil he said, "You cowboy skunks
G
"You better go hunt your hole
A
"'Cause I've come up from the Hell's rim rock
D
"To gather in your souls"
D
Says Rusty Jiggs to the Devil
A
"Though I know we're tight
"No devil ever took no cowpunch
D
"Without one kind of a fight"
Interlude 2

Verse 5
D
So Rusty Jiggs punched a hole in his rope
A
He swang it straight and true
He lassoed it onto the devil's horns
D
And he's takin' his dallies true
Now Sandy Sam was a reata man
G
With his gut line coiled up neat
A
So he shakes her out out
and he builds him a loop
D
And he lassoed the Devil's hind feet
Verse 6
D
They stretched him out, they tailed him down
A
While the irons was a-gettin' hot
They cropped and swallow-forked his ears
D
And they branded him up a lot
Well they pruned him up with a dehorning saw
G
Tied knots in his tail for a joke
A
Then they rode off and left him there
D
Necked up to a black-jack oak
Outro 1
D
So if you're ever up in the Sierry Petes
A
And you hear one hell of a wail
Know it's that Devil a-bellowin' 'round
D
About them knots in his tail
A
You'll know it's that Devil a-bellowin' around
D
About them knots in his tail
D

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 🙂”

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.”
