    Verse 1
    Sweet 
    Abilena looks 
    out 

    at 
    the midwestern 
    sky 

    Sweet 
    seventeen 
    with 
    a faraway 

    look 
    in 
    her 
    eyes 

    She said, 
    "I feel 
    like 
    a bird 
    in 
    a cage 

    But come 
    September 

    I'm 
    flying 
    away" 

    I said, 
    "I'm 
    gonna 
    miss 
    you" 
    then I 

    made 
    her 
    promise 
    to 
    write 

    Verse 2
    Since 
    we 
    were tall 
    as 
    the 

    corn 
    in 
    the spring 

    We shared 
    every 
    secret, 

    shared 
    every 
    dream 

    So 
    anxious 
    to grow 
    in 

    the new 
    summer 
    rain 

    And 
    bloom 
    like 
    rose 
    on 

    the calico 
    plain

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    How 
    could 
    she 
    hear 
    as 
    we 
    laughed 

    on 
    that 
    warm 
    summer 
    night 

    The 
    tiny 
    heart 
    of 
    the 
    baby 

    she 
    carried 
    inside 

    stood 
    beside 
    her 
    when 

    September 
    came 

    Watched 
    her 
    get 
    married 

    and 
    caught 
    the bouquet 

    And 
    like 
    those 
    hand 
    me 

    down 
    dresses 
    she 
    gave 
    me 

    Verse 4
    made 
    her 
    dreams 
    mine 


    From 
    a seat 
    by 
    the 
    window 

    on 
    wings 
    made 
    of 
    steel 

    I stared 
    at 
    the 
    patchwork 
    over 
    the fields 

    Where 
    young 
    tears 
    that 
    once 
    fell 

    like 
    warm 
    summer 
    rain 

    Were 
    turning 
    to 
    snow 
    on 
    the 
    calico 
    plain

    Interlude 2



    Verse 5

    Sweet 
    Abilena looks 
    out 
    at 

    the 
    midwestern 
    sky 

    Closer 
    to 
    thirty 
    but 
    farther 
    away 
    in 
    her 
    eyes 

    She 
    holds 
    her 
    babies 
    like 
    she 

    holds 
    her 
    dreams 

    Each 
    night 
    she 
    kisses 
    and 

    rocks 
    them 
    to sleep 
    while 

    She 
    reads 
    the 
    letters 
    she 
    makes 

    Interlude 3
    me 
    promise 
    to 
    write 


    Verse 6
    Sweet 
    Abliena looks 
    out 
    at 

    the 
    mid
    western 
    sky

    • 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.
