    • Verse 1
    Well, 
    I 
    thought 
    about 
    the 
    army 

    Dad 
    said, 
    "Son, 

    you're 
    fucking 
    high" 

    And 
    I 
    thought, 
    "Yeah, 

    there's 
    a 
    first 
    for 
    everything" 

    So 
    I 
    took 
    my 
    old 
    man's 
    advice 

    Three 
    sad 
    semesters 

    It 
    was 
    only 
    $15,000 spent 
    in 
    bed 

    I 
    thought 
    about 
    the 
    army 

    I 
    dropped 
    out 
    and 
    joined 
    a 
    band 
    in

    stead 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    Grew 
    a 
    mustache 
    and 
    a 
    mullet 

    Got 
    a 
    job 
    at 
    Chick- 
    Fil- 
    A 

    Citing 
    artistic 
    differences 

    The 
    band 
    broke 
    up 
    in 
    May 

    And 
    in 
    Jun
    e, 
    reformed 
    without 
    me 

    And 
    they 
    got 
    a 
    different 
    name 

    I 
    nuked 
    an
    other 
    Grandma's 
    apple 
    pie 

    And 
    hun
    g my 
    head 
    in shame, 

    no 

    Verse 3

    Been thinking 
    a lot 
    today 

    Been 
    thinking 
    a lot 
    today 

    Verse 4
    Oh, 
    think 
    I'll 
    write 
    a screenplay 

    Oh, 

    think 
    I'll 
    take 
    you 
    to 
    L.A 

    Oh, 
    think 
    I'll 
    get 
    it 
    done 

    yester
    day 

    Interlude 2
    Aw, shit 




    Verse 5
    In 



    this 
    time 
    of 
    introspection 

    On 
    the eve 
    of 
    my 
    election 

    I 
    say 
    to 
    my 
    reflection 

    "God, 
    please 
    spare 
    me 

    more 
    rejection" 

    'Cause 
    my 
    peer
    s, 
    they 
    criticize 
    me 

    And 
    my 
    ex- 
    wives 
    all 
    despise 
    me 

    Try 
    to put 
    it 
    all 
    behind 
    me 

    But my red
    neck 
    past 
    is 
    nipping 

    at my 
    heels 

    Verse 6
    Thinking 
    a lot 
    today 

    Been thinking 
    a lot 
    today 

    Been 
    thinking 
    a lot 
    today 

    I 
    thought 
    about 
    the 
    army

      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 🙂

      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.
