    Verse 1
    The cherry 
    gum 

    would 
    cover 
    up 
    the 
    cigar
    ettes 
    we 
    smoked 

    The 
    7-Up 
    would 
    bal
    ance 
    out 
    the 
    beer 

    Mom 
    would 
    make 
    us 
    dinner, 

    and 
    we'd 
    all 
    try 
    not 
    to 
    choke 

    Dad 
    was 
    working 
    later 
    every 
    year 

    Verse 2

    We count 
    the trucks 
    on 
    Highway 
    1 on 

    their 
    way 
    to Jacksonville 

    Wonderin' 
    where 
    they 

    headed 
    on 
    from 
    there 

    My 
    brothers 
    and 
    my 
    sister 
    all 

    stood 
    spiritually 
    still 

    As 
    if 
    those 
    road
    s 
    became 
    the 

    an
    swers 
    to 
    their 
    prayers 

    Verse 3

    But 
    I 
    didn't 
    want 
    it 
    any 
    other 
    way 

    This 
    town 
    was 
    the 
    one 
    thing 
    that 
    felt 
    right 

    All 
    these 
    tourists 
    could 
    be 
    king

    s 
    during 
    the 
    day 

    But 
    not 
    in 
    St. 
    Augustine 
    at night 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    I 
    was 
    working 
    at 
    the 
    bait 
    shack, 

    supplying 
    all 
    the 
    fishing 
    tours 

    Pretty 
    soon 
    I 
    was 
    chartering 
    a 
    boat 

    My 
    dad 
    said 
    I 
    needed 
    dumb 
    luck 
    and 

    a 
    secret 
    stash 
    of 
    Coors 

    If I 
    stood 
    a 
    chance 
    at 
    keeping 

    things 
    afloat 

    Verse 5

    That's 
    when 
    my 
    girlfriend 
    told 
    me 

    "There's 
    a 
    baby 
    on 
    the 
    way 

    And 
    I 
    need 
    to 
    know 
    you're 

    gon
    na 
    go 
    to 
    bat" 

    Well, 
    I 
    never 
    put 
    off 
    'til 
    tomorrow 
    the 

    things 
    I 
    shoulda 
    done 
    today 

    No, 
    I've 
    always 
    waited 

    way 
    longer 
    than 
    that 

    Verse 6

    I 
    have 
    never 
    had 
    much 
    say 
    in 
    how 
    I felt 

    I've 
    been 
    guided 
    by 
    my 

    bar
    room 
    appet
    ites 

    So 
    if 
    this 
    world 
    belongs 
    to 

    every
    body 
    else 

    Just 
    leave 
    me 
    St. 
    Augustine 
    at 
    night 

    Verse 7

    The 
    Lord 
    must 
    really 
    love 

    us 
    com
    mon 
    folk 

    'Cause 
    he 
    made 
    so 
    god
    damn 
    much 

    Now, 
    if 
    he'd 
    just 
    point 
    the 
    way 
    to 
    go 

    If 
    he'd 
    could 
    just 
    start 
    speaking 
    up 

    Verse 8
    Our 
    oldest 
    brother 
    left 
    this 
    world 

    for 
    leading 
    one 
    too 
    many 
    lives 

    I 
    guess 
    he settled 
    for 
    none 
    at 
    all 

    The 
    rest 
    of 
    us 
    just 
    grew 
    apart 
    and 
    blamed 

    our 
    husbands 
    and 
    our 
    wives 

    When 
    anyone 
    was 
    asked 

    why 
    they 
    don't 
    call 

    Verse 9

    And 
    life 
    became 
    a 
    series 
    of 
    birthdays, 

    cars, 
    and 
    pets 

    Just 
    anything 
    to 
    look 
    forward 
    to 

    I 
    don't 
    talk 
    about 
    mistakes 

    I 
    don't 
    talk 
    about 
    regret
    s 

    At 
    this 
    point, 

    I'm 
    not 
    sure 
    what 
    good 
    it 
    would 
    do 

    Verse 10

    And 
    I'm 
    not 
    asking 
    for 
    anybody's 
    help 

    As 
    I 
    gaze 
    out 
    where 
    the stars 

    dance 
    with 
    the 
    light
    s 

    If 
    I'm 
    not 
    sure 
    how 
    I 
    feel 

    about 
    myself 

    I still 
    got 
    St. 
    Augustine 
    at 
    night 

    Oh, 
    I still 
    got 
    St. 
    Augustine 
    at 
    night

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
