    Verse 1
    G

    I went down to the county jail
    D

    And turned myself in

    Spending all my weekends here

    Far from my good-timing friends
    G

    friends

    Things just went from bad to worse

    But I don't know when

    The only thing I know for sure

    Verse 2
    G

    They took me down to cellblock B
    D

    After stripping off my clothes

    Put me in a monkey suit
    G

    And threw me in the throes

    Like a rat in a maze

    A cow in the herd
    C

    Or a sparrow with a broken wing

    In the Davidson County Jail
    D

    And my old man, he ain't got the cash
    C
    G

    To even go my bail

    Should have listened to my mama
    C

    And quit my life of sin
    G
    D

    Before I went backsliding again
    G
    Verse 4


    This bed is hard and the room is cold
    D

    And my cellmate's got a cough

    She takes her meds and sleeps all day
    G

    Got six more weeks til she's off

    She said she beat her boyfriend up
    C

    While high on crack cocaine
    G

    And now she sits and watches
    D

    Her life go down the drain

    And quit her life of sin

    Verse 6
    G

    Walk into some other room
    D

    They tried to make me eat

    Red-dyed gravy, gravy, cardboard bread
    G

    And something that looked like meat

    One tough girl from cellblock C
    C

    Picked a fight with the man at the desk
    G

    Mighty soon was sent back to her room
    D
    G

    And I bet you know the rest

    Maybe quit my life of sin

    • 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.”
