    Verse 1

    Your 
    Daddy 
    was 
    mad 
    as 
    hell 

    He was 
    mad 
    at 
    me 
    and you 

    As 
    he 
    tied 
    that 
    chain 
    to the 
    front 
    of my car 

    and pulled me 
    out 
    of that 
    ditch 
    that we 
    slid 
    into 

    Don't 
    know 
    what his 
    problem 
    is 

    Why 
    he keeps 
    dragging 
    you 
    away 

    Don't 
    know 
    why 
    put 
    up 

    with 
    this shit 

    When you 
    don't 
    put 
    out and 

    Verse 2

    Your 


    Daddy 
    is a 
    deacon 

    down 
    at the Salem 
    Church 
    of Christ 

    And He 
    makes 
    good 
    money 
    as long 
    as 
    Reynolds 
    Wrap 

    keeps 
    everything 
    wrapped 
    up 
    tight 

    Your Mama's 
    as 
    good 
    a wife 
    and 

    Mama 
    as 
    she can 
    be 

    And your 
    Sis
    ter's 
    puttin' 
    that 
    sweet 
    stuff 

    on 
    every
    body 
    in town 
    but 
    me 

    Your Brother 
    was the 
    first-born, 

    got 
    got 
    ten 
    fingers 
    and 
    ten toes 

    And it's a

    to keep 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    Maybe 
    it's 
    the twenty-six 
    mile 
    mile 
    drive 

    from 
    Zip 
    City 
    to Colbert 
    Heights 

    Keeps 
    my mind 
    clean 

    Gets 
    me 
    through 
    the night 

    Maybe 
    you're 
    just 
    a destina
    tion, 

    a place 
    for me 
    to go 

    way to keep 
    from 
    having 
    to deal 
    with 
    my 
    seven

    teen-year-old 
    mind 
    mind mind 
    all 
    alone 

    Keep 
    your drawers 
    on, 
    girl, 

    it 
    ain't worth 
    the 
    fight 

    By the 
    time 
    you 
    drop 
    them I'll 

    be gone 

    And you'll 
    be right 
    where 
    they 
    fall 
    the rest 

    of 
    your 
    life

    want to 
    do 

    Well

    You

    • 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.
