Verse 1
D

I was lost in trouble and strife,
G
Em

I heard a voice and it changed my life
D

And now it's a brand new day,
A

and I ain't afraid to say
D

You're not alone when

you're down and out
G

And I think you know who
Em

I'm talking about
D

When I don't know how I'll get through
A
G
A

I ask myself what would Willie

do
Verse 2
D

What would Willie do, well he'd travel so far with
G
Em

nothing but a song and his old guitar
D

And a tour bus and some semi-trucks,
A

thirty thirty crew men and a little bit of luck
D

Well he loves all the people,

the ugly and the randy
G

If you don't believe me
Em

take a look at the family
D

And they'll tell you that it's true
A
G

When skies are gray what would
A
D
Dsus4
D

Willie do
A
Well long ago
Verse 3
D

he came unto us,
G

his words were simple but they went right through us
D

And the whole world sang along,
A

but then they didn't want to hear his songs
D

He was gone and we

thought we'd lost him
G

But he grew his hair and he

moved to Austin
D

And all of the people smiled,
A

they came to hear him sing from miles
G
A

Like a miracle all those

rednecks and hippies
Bm
D

From New York City down
G

to Mississippi
D

Stood together and raised a brew
A
G

When it's all gone wrong what
A
D
G
D
A

would Willie do
Verse 4
D

You know sometimes I wonder

when I ain't gettin' nowhere
G

What would old Willie do when it all
D

gets too much to bear

And I can see him on his

lonely old tour bus
A

And he's got his prob
Em
A

lems just like any of us
D

Well he'd just take a deep breath

and then he'd let it all go
G

And he'd take another deep breath
D

and let it all go

And he'd take another deep
A

breath...and he'd hold it
D

Ah and I bet he'd feel hungry

in a way that seems strange
G

Yeah hungry for all the things
D

that he just can't change

Like the time he passed out

in is own bedroom
A

And his wife sewed him up in the sheets and beat
D

him with a broom and he forgave her

And you think that's rough,
G

well then the IRS came and they took away all of his stuff
D

They took his golf course and his recording studio,
A

and he just went out and did another show
G

So when it's all coming down on you
A
G
A

You better ask yourself what
D
A

would Willie do
Verse 5
D

What would Willie do,

well he'd take a little time
G

And talk to old rooser as he'd drive

on down the line

And there's millions down that road,
A

and with a word he's gonna lighten their load
D

He loves all the people no

matter their races

Hell he even had a hit country

  • 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.
