    Verse 1
    Well 
    the road 
    maps 
    of West 

    Texas 
    never 
    gave 
    me 
    good 
    advice 

    The 
    trains 
    all 
    roll 
    where 
    the roads 
    don't go, 

    now I 
    lay 
    awake 
    at 
    night 

    Just 
    wondering 
    where 
    the rest 
    is 

    so 
    I 
    hit 
    that 
    iron 
    gate 

    And I yelled 
    good-bye 
    to 
    to that 
    wife 
    of mine, 

    I 
    may 
    be 
    running 
    late 

    Verse 2
    I'm 
    a-rolling on, 
    on, 
    I'm a-rolling 
    on 

    on 

    Rolling 
    out 
    past 
    El 
    Paso 
    Texas, 

    where 
    I 
    might 
    have 
    had 
    a home 

    I 
    made 
    my 
    bed, 
    so 
    here 
    I 
    lie 

    I'm 
    rolling 
    West 
    Texas 

    teardrops 
    in my 
    eye 

    Verse 3
    Though 
    I felt 
    a lonesome 
    feeling 
    in 
    Dulce, 

    New 
    Mexico 

    I was 
    happier 
    than 
    I'd 
    ever 

    been 
    in 
    my 
    El Paso 
    home 

    But 
    I thought 
    about 
    the 
    woman 

    whom 
    I 
    left 
    to 
    roam 
    the 
    land 

    And 
    I cried 
    so much 
    it 
    dug 
    a 

    rut they 
    call 
    the 
    Rio 
    Grande 

    Verse 4
    I'm 
    a-rolling 
    on, 
    on, 
    I'm 
    a-rolling on 

    on 

    Rolling 
    out 
    past 
    El 
    Paso 
    Texas, 

    where 
    I 
    might 
    have 
    had 
    a home 

    I 
    made 
    my 
    bed, 
    so 
    here 
    I 
    lie 

    I'm 
    rolling 
    West 
    Texas 
    teardrops 

    in my 
    eye 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    And 
    my destination 
    is 
    written 

    upon 
    my 
    feet 

    And the 
    stars 
    above 
    are 
    about 

    the 
    only 
    company 
    I keep 

    So 
    raise 
    my 
    pass 
    and 
    take 
    my 
    seat 

    I'm 
    rolling 
    fast 
    with 

    a teardrop 
    on my 
    cheek 

    Verse 6

    So 
    I guess 
    there'll 
    be 
    no family, 

    so 
    I 
    guess 
    there'll 
    be 
    no wife 

    Gonna 
    roll 
    away 
    on 
    an old 
    steel 
    dray, 

    it's 
    gonna 
    be 
    my 
    life 

    And 
    the road 
    maps 
    I 
    been 
    reading, 

    I 
    never 
    came 
    to 
    figure 
    out 

    All 
    I 
    know 
    is I'd 
    explode 

    by 
    any 
    other 
    route 

    Verse 7
    I'm 
    a-rolling on, 
    on, 
    I'm 
    a-rolling on 

    on 

    Rolling 
    out 
    past 
    El 
    Paso 
    Texas, 

    where 
    I 
    might 
    have 
    had 
    a 
    home 

    I 
    made 
    my 
    bed, 
    so 
    here 
    I 
    lie 

    I'm 
    rolling 
    West 
    Texas 

    teardrops 
    in my 
    eye

    Verse 8

      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 🙂

      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.
