D
Dm

Walking down death row,
Em

I sang for three men destined
Am

for the chair;
D
Dm

Walking down death row,
Em
Am

I sang of lives and loves in other years.
Dm

Walking down death row,

I sang of hopes that used to be.

Through the bars, into each separate cell,

Yes, I sang to one and two and three.
Em

"If you'd only only stuck together

you'd not be sitting here!
Dm

"If you could have loved each other's lives,
Em

you'd not be sitting here!
Am
Dm

"And if only this you could believe,
Em

"You might still, you might still be reprieved."

Verse 2

D
Dm

Walking down death row,
Em

I turned the corner and found to
Am

my surprise;
D

There were women there as well,
Dm
Em

With babies in their arms,
Am

before my eyes.
Dm

Walking down death row,

I tried once more to sing of hopes

that used to be.

But the thought of that contraption,

down the hall,

Waiting for whole families,

one dozen, two or three,
Em

"If you'd only stuck together,

you'd not be here!
Dm

"If you could've loved another's child as well as your own,
Em

you'd not be sitting here!
Am
Dm

"And if only this you could believe,
Em
Am

"You might still, you might still be reprieved."

singing to the young.
D
Dm

I sang of hopes that flickered still,
Em

I tried to mouth their many
Am

separate tongues.
Dm

Walking down death row,

I sang of life and love

that still might be.

Singing down death row,

To each separate human cell,

One billion, two, or three,
Em

"If we'd only stick together,

we'd not be here!
Dm

"If we could learn to love each other's lives,
Em

we'd not be sitting here!
Am
Dm

"And if only this we could believe,

we still might be reprieved."

  • 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

    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

    Lynae T

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