    Verse 1
    I built 
    a fire 
    up 
    on 
    the 
    hill; I 

    sat 
    in 
    the woods 
    and 
    drank 
    my 
    fill 

    Talked 
    to 
    God 
    all 
    night, 

    took 
    another 
    shot 
    at setting 
    me 
    right 

    Then 
    I walked 
    down 
    to 
    the 
    road, 

    filled 
    a beer 
    can 
    full 
    of 
    22 holes 

    Then 
    I said 
    goodbye, 
    yeah 
    I said 
    goodbye 

    Verse 2
    I'd 
    go 
    back 
    but 
    I can't 
    go 
    home, 

    cause 
    river 
    is 
    up 
    and 
    the road 
    is closed 

    And 
    there 
    ain't 
    no 
    tele
    phone 

    ? At 
    my 
    mothers' house 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    light
    s are 
    out, 

    down 
    on 
    the 
    rur

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    There 
    ain't 
    much 
    of 
    nothin' 
    left, 

    this 
    place 
    where 
    I 
    became 
    myself 

    Ghosts 
    and 
    memories, 

    I'd 
    walk 
    on 
    by 
    but 
    they'd 
    follow 
    me 

    I'd seen 
    plenty 
    on 
    down 
    the 
    road. 
    Asked 

    him 
    if 
    he'd 
    seen 
    my 
    brother

    He 
    just 
    said 
    no, 
    well 
    I 
    guess 
    I'd 
    better 
    go 

    Verse 4
    I'd 
    go 
    back 
    but 
    I 
    can't 
    go 
    home, 

    cause 
    river 
    is 
    up 
    and 
    the 
    road 
    is 
    closed 

    And

    walk 
    away, 

    ain't 
    nothin' 
    here 
    I 
    want 
    to 
    remember 
    any
    way 

    Least 
    not 
    today

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
