    Verse 1
    So 
    there's hun
    dreds 
    of auburn 
    Alabama 
    acres, 

    With rows 
    of 
    red 
    roofs 
    over warm 

    farmer's 
    daugh
    ters 

    Who've 
    got 
    no 
    inten
    tion 

    of invit
    ing 
    me 
    in
    . 

    Space 
    shines 
    all above 
    me 
    so 

    I settle 
    myself 
    under 
    it. 

    Verse 2
    When 
    I wake 
    up, 

    I'm back 
    in my 
    crowed 
    city 
    apart
    ment, 

    With 
    some random 
    men 
    doing 
    work 

    off 
    in the kit
    chen. 

    They're 
    stacking 
    mattresses 
    up now 
    from 

    the ceil
    ing 
    down to 
    the floor. 

    My 
    father's 
    sick 
    in the hall
    way. 

    Verse 3
    I 
    hear 
    him whist
    ling 
    under 
    door. 

    I rush to 
    lift 
    him, but 
    you all 

    know I'm weak, 

    And 
    you know 
    that he's 
    heavy. 

    There's 
    no blood 
    in 
    his cheeks, 

    But 
    he's smil
    ing 
    straight 
    Verse 4
    at 
    me. 

    I 
    ask the 
    thickest 
    of 
    the 
    workers, 

    "Would 
    you please 
    come 

    and help 
    me 
    out
    ?" 

    He comes 
    ambling 
    over 
    and says, 

    "Sir, 
    I love 
    how 
    your whistling 
    Verse 5

    sound
    s." 

    So 
    now we 
    drag 
    him through the 

    kitchen 
    to 
    the 
    living 
    room 

    And down 
    on the car
    pet. 

    He says, 
    "Son, 
    I'm 
    embar
    rassed, 

    Verse 6
    But 
    the sides 
    of my 
    head 
    hurt. 

    I 
    just know 
    that 
    I'm tired 
    and 

    I could surely 
    use 
    some 
    rest." 

    I tear 
    a mattress 
    down 

    for 
    him and 
    I say, 

    "Here 
    Dad. 
    Sleep 
    some 
    on 
    this." 

    Verse 7
    I wake for 
    real, 
    and it's 
    over. 

    I'm alone 
    in the 
    acres, 

    And 
    my dad 
    is still 
    dead. 

    So 
    if 
    you're 
    underneath 

    one of 
    those rooftops, 

    Verse 8
    Look 
    out 
    your 
    window 
    and 

    in
    vite 
    me on 
    in
    , 

    Cause 
    it's cold 
    and I'm lonely, 

    And 
    I could sure 
    use 
    a friend.

      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 🙂

      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.
