  • Verse 1
    You can 
    lie 
    to 
    your 
    Mama, 

    you 
    can 
    lie 
    to 
    your 
    race 

    But you 
    can't 
    lie 
    to 
    nobody 

    with that 
    cold 
    steel 
    in 
    your face. 

    And the 
    same 
    God 
    that you're 
    so 

    afraid 
    is gonna 
    send 
    you 
    to hell 

    Is the 
    same 
    one you're 
    gonna 
    answer 

    to 
    when the 
    pin 
    hits 
    the shell. 

    Verse 2

    Your 
    sister's 
    been 
    blaming 
    everybody. 

    don't blame 
    her, 

    man, 
    guess 
    I'd do 
    the same 

    If you 
    was my 
    brother, 
    man, 

    I'd 
    probably 
    stand 
    by 
    you. 

    But 
    you 
    ain't, 
    man, 

    so 
    I got 
    to go 
    my 
    way. 

    And 
    I ain't 
    gonna 
    crawl 

    upon 
    no 
    high 
    horse 

    Cause 
    got 
    thrown 
    off 
    of one 

    Verse 3
    When I 
    was 
    young 
    and 
    I ain't 
    no 
    cowboy 

    So 
    I ain't 
    going 
    where 
    I don't 
    belong. 

    It 
    wouldn't 
    do 
    you no 
    good 
    to let 
    you know 

    that 
    it 
    damned 
    near 
    killed 
    me too 

    So 
    I ain't 
    gonna 
    mourn 
    for you, 
    man, 

    Interlude 1
    now 
    that 
    you're gone. 




    Verse 4
    Me 
    and you, 

    we liked 
    our pills 
    and 
    our whis
    key. 

    But 
    you 
    don't 
    want 
    your head 

    full 
    of either 
    one 
    when 

    The 
    house 
    gets 
    quiet 
    and dark. 

    Having 
    fun 
    used 
    to be 
    so damned 
    easy, 

    Racing 
    train
    s from 
    Second 

    Street 
    to Avalon. 

    Take 
    trip 
    down 
    memory 
    lane, 

    You don't 
    see 
    no 
    friendly 
    faces 

    All 
    the houses 
    have 
    been painted 
    and 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    your name. 

    It's 
    enough 
    to make 
    a man 
    not 
    want 

    To 
    be 
    nobody's 
    Daddy, 

    When 
    all 
    he think
    s he's 
    got 
    left 

    to hand 
    down 
    is guilt 
    and shame. 

    Verse 5
    And 
    I ain't 
    gonna 
    crawl 
    upon 
    no 

    Interlude 2
    high 
    horse... 



    Verse 6
    You 


    can 
    lie 
    to 
    your 
    Mama, 

    you can 
    lie 
    to 
    your 
    race 

    But you can't 
    lie 
    to 
    nobody 
    with that 

    cold 
    steel 
    in 
    your face. 

    And the 
    same 
    God 
    that you're 
    so 

    afraid 
    is gonna 
    send 
    you 
    to 
    hell 

    Is 
    the 
    same 
    one you're 
    gonna 
    answer 

    to 
    when 
    the 
    pin 
    hits 
    the shell.

    • 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.
