    This 
    old 
    Mexican 
    cow

    boy 
    at the 
    bar 
    looked 
    a 
    hundred 
    years 
    old 

    He 
    had 
    a 
    mil
    lion 
    dollar 
    smile 
    and 
    his weathered 
    brown 

    skin

    like 
    Cali
    fornia 
    gold 

    He said 
    I'm 
    a 
    little 
    short 
    on cash, 

    but 
    I'm 
    long 
    on 
    life 

    For 
    a 
    shot 
    of 
    tequila, 

    I'll 
    give 
    you some 
    dang 
    good 
    ad
    vice 

    Verse 2
    He 
    said 
    don't 
    leave 
    your 
    beer 

    in 
    the 
    hot 
    Texas 
    sun 

    Don't 
    argue 
    with a 
    woman 
    while 

    she's 
    holdin' 
    a gun 

    Never 
    cheat 
    when 
    it 
    comes 

    to love 
    or 
    dominoes 

    Vaya

    Verse 3

    Well my 
    heart 
    sank 
    the more 
    he 
    drank, 

    the 
    more he 
    poured 
    out 
    his 
    misery 

    How 
    he 
    lost 
    her 
    after 
    forty- 
    seven 
    years 
    and his 
    tears 

    star
    ted 
    flow
    ing 
    like 
    the Rio 
    Grande 

    He started 
    speakin' 
    in Spanish, 

    then 
    he 
    kissed 
    is 
    rosary 

    Said "por 
    siempre 
    mi 
    amor" 
    his 

    one 
    more 
    to 
    her 
    memory 

    Verse 4
    He 
    said 
    don't 
    live 
    your 
    life 

    like 
    a sad 
    country 
    song 

    A 
    fool 
    on 
    a stool 
    is still 
    a fool 

    right 
    or 
    wrong 

    [?] San 
    Ben
    ito 
    breaking 

    hearts 
    as 
    he goes 

    Vaya 
    con 
    dios

    the 
    old 
    Vaquer
    o 

    I walked 
    Verse 5
    over 
    to 
    the 
    corner, 

    turned 
    the 
    old 
    jukebox 
    on 

    When 
    I 
    turned 
    back 
    around, 

    like 
    a ghost 
    he 
    was 
    gone 

    Verse 6
    So 
    I 
    paid his 
    tab, 
    called 
    a 
    cab, 
    called 
    it 
    a night, 

    and came 
    straight 
    home 
    to you 

    As 
    we 
    laid 
    there in 
    bed, 

    I told 
    you all 
    the thing
    s he 
    said 

    we laughed, 
    we 
    cried, 

    and 
    I held 
    you 
    the whole 
    night 
    through 

    Verse 7
    You know I 
    think 
    of him 
    often, 

    out 
    there 
    all 
    alone 

    Maybe 
    he 
    was 
    an angel, 

    or 
    just 
    an old 
    man 
    from San 
    Antone 

    Verse 8
    He said 
    don't 
    leave your 
    beer 

    in 
    the hot 
    Texas 
    sun 

    Don't

      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

      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.

      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.
