    Verse 1
    Our boys 
    and girls 
    will be 
    here soon 
    coming 
    home 

    from war 

    I'm 
    so glad 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this year 

    But they'll 
    be going 
    back 

    to war 
    again 
    I fear 

    Can't 
    they stay 
    for Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year 

    Verse 2
    Now Johnny 
    ain't got 
    no legs 

    and Billy 
    ain't got 
    no face 

    Do 
    they know 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year? 

    Tommy 
    looks 
    about 
    the same 

    but 
    his mind 
    is gone 

    Does 
    he know 
    it's Christmas 
    time 
    this 

    year? 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 3
    When 
    is Santa 
    coming 
    'round 
    'cause 

    got some 
    requests 

    bet he knows 
    it's Christ

    mas time 
    this year 

    Military 
    personnel 
    might not 

    be on 
    his list 

    Don't 
    he know 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year 

    All 
    I want 
    is two 
    good arms 

    so I 
    can hold 
    my kids 

    Then 
    they'll know 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year 

    I'd like 
    a mouth 
    so I 
    can kiss 

    my 
    hon
    ey 
    on her lips 

    Then 
    she'll know 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year 

    Verse 4
    Because 
    it's Christmas 
    time, 
    Christmas 
    time, 


    Yes it's merry 
    Christmas 
    time 

    Everybody 
    stand 
    up tall 
    and cheer 

    Our children 
    will 
    be coming 

    home 
    in plastic 
    bags 
    I fear 

    And 
    then we'll know 
    it's Christmas 

    time 
    this 
    year 

    Verse 5
    Thank 
    you Mr. 
    President 
    for your 

    kind 
    words and 
    deeds 

    There's just 
    one thing 

    I'd like 
    for 
    you to hear 

    Take 
    this war 
    and shove 
    it up 
    your 

    Crawford, Texas 
    ass 

    And then 
    you'll know 
    it's 

    Christmas time 
    this 
    year

    • 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.
