    Verse 1
    Well, 
    the last 
    big 
    buffalo 
    run 
    is 
    done, 

    and the 
    hides 
    are stripped 
    and 
    gone. 

    I'm 
    a -standing 
    here 
    in 
    dead 
    ghost 

    city 
    on 
    a 
    pile 
    of 
    rattling 
    bones 

    Three 
    -pronged 

    Pete 
    runs 
    down 
    my 
    street, 

    he's 
    yelling 
    out 
    his 
    lungs 

    There's 
    a 
    wild 
    stampede 
    coming 
    through 

    town 
    and 
    it's 
    led 
    by 
    the 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone 

    I 
    darched 
    in 
    back 
    of 
    some 
    bales 
    of 
    hay 

    as 
    the 
    wild 
    herd 
    jostled 
    pas
    t. 

    Well, 
    I could 
    not 
    spot 
    their 
    leader 
    horse, 

    cause 
    they 
    all 
    went 
    past 
    so fast. 

    A 
    wind 
    -burnt 
    girl 
    rode 
    in 
    that 
    herd, 

    and I 
    seen 
    her 
    toss 
    her 
    lute. 

    Her 
    horsey 
    fell, 
    and 
    the 
    girl 
    did 
    yell, 

    I've 
    missed 
    that 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone. 

    I 
    lifted 
    her 
    up 
    from 
    that 
    dusty 
    street, 

    on 
    top 
    of my 
    bales 
    of 
    hay. 

    She 
    pulled 
    her 
    hair 
    and 
    cried 
    and 
    said, 

    that 
    cyclone 
    got 
    away. 

    She 
    said, 
    I trailed 
    in six 
    long 
    years 

    since 
    heat 
    was 
    just 
    a 
    cold. 

    I 
    squeezed 
    her 
    hand 
    and said, 

    I'll 
    help 
    you 
    snag 
    that 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone. 

    We 
    bought 
    for 
    her 
    a 
    saddling 
    done 

    with an 
    engine 
    bridled 
    to. 

    Stopped 
    our 
    pack 
    on 
    the 

    Swayback 

    Bay 
    and 
    trailed 
    for a 
    week 
    or two. 

    In 

    Dry 

    Gasp 

    Valley 
    pitched 
    our 
    camp 
    where 
    the 

    cold 
    water 
    springs 
    did 
    run. 

    Played 
    every 
    trap 
    in 
    the 

    Bloom 

    Tale 
    book, 
    but 
    we missed 

    that 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone. 

    One 
    day, 
    just 
    when 
    the 
    sun 
    comes 
    up, 

    my 
    gay 
    friend 

    Gabson 

    Min 
    throws 
    a 
    loose 
    loop 
    on 
    a 

    mare. 

    She told 
    me 
    with 
    a 
    grin, 
    we'll 
    build 
    a 
    pen 
    around 
    this 
    mare, 

    and the 
    cyclone's 
    bound 

    to 
    come. 

    Before 
    too 
    many 
    moon
    s roll 
    by, 

    we'll 
    have 
    that 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone. 

    Well, 
    small 
    rail 
    fence 
    we 
    built 
    around 

    this 
    fair 
    young 
    hickory 
    mare. 

    That 
    same 
    old 
    night 
    as 
    the 

    moon 
    was 
    bright, 
    old 

    Wild 

    Cyclone 
    was 
    there. 

    He 
    pushed 
    the 
    gate 
    to 
    the 
    rail 
    corral 

    and 
    he 
    rubbed 
    his 
    lady's 
    nose. 

    We 
    laced 
    our 
    gates 
    with 
    leath
    ery 
    straps 

    an
    d trapped 
    that 
    wild 
    cyclone. 

    My 
    windburned 
    girl 
    did 
    feel 
    so 
    gay, 

    she 
    kissed 
    my 
    leathery 
    cheeks. 

    Then 
    both 
    rode 
    back, 
    pitching 

    Horntown 
    to 
    the 
    justice 
    of 
    the 
    peace. 

    We 
    bred 
    this 
    fair 
    and 
    beautiful 
    mare 

    to 
    the 
    stormy 
    wild 
    cyc
    lone. 

    It's 
    now 
    our 
    kids 
    ride 
    past 
    us 
    on 
    the 

    fastest 
    horses 
    grown.

      "

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
