    Its 
    Verse 1
    January 
    1970, do you 
    re
    member 
    me 

    You 
    put 
    me 
    on 
    boat 
    across 
    the sea, 

    in 
    the 
    name 
    of 
    victory 

    But much 
    to 
    my 
    surprised 
    when 
    arrived, 

    there 
    was 
    no 
    welcoming 
    committee 

    In
    stead 
    there 
    was 
    man 
    for 
    me 
    to 
    kill, 

    and 
    now 
    I see 
    how 
    this 
    is 
    all 
    too 
    real 

    Then 
    saw 
    Verse 2
    him 
    standing 

    with 
    bay
    onet 

    And 
    as 
    ran 
    towards 
    him 
    he 
    hardly 

    broke 
    a sweat 

    When 
    took 
    his 
    life 
    he 
    fell 
    to 
    his 
    knees 

    And 
    as 
    his 
    eyes 
    began 
    to 
    fade 
    he 

    whispered 
    softly 

    Verse 3
    Godspeed 
    this 
    letter, 
    away 
    from 
    here 

    I've 
    sealed 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    tears, 

    and 
    stamped 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    fists 

    And 
    godspeed 
    this 
    letter, 

    away 
    from 
    you 

    My 
    work 
    down 
    here 
    is 
    through 

    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way 
    to 
    better 
    days 

    And 
    so 
    are 
    you 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    I'm 
    in 
    his 
    pocket 
    that 
    saw 
    the 
    picture 

    of 
    his 
    children 
    and 
    his 
    family 

    And 
    began 
    to 
    realize 
    this 
    person 
    despised, 

    in 
    actuality 

    Was 
    not 
    much 
    different 
    from 
    myself 

    We 
    probably 
    could 
    have taught 

    each 
    other 
    many 
    things 

    And 
    now 
    know 
    its 
    much 
    too 
    late 

    although 
    couldn't 
    hesitate 

    checked 
    his 
    gun, 

    and 
    his 
    chamber 
    was 
    empty 

    Then 
    saw 
    Verse 5
    him 
    stand

    ing 
    with 
    bayonet 

    And 
    as 
    ran 
    towards 
    him 
    he 

    hardly 
    broke 
    a sweat 

    When 
    took 
    his 
    life 
    he 
    fell 
    to 
    his 
    knees 

    And 
    as 
    his 
    eyes 
    began 
    to 
    fade 
    he 

    whispered 
    softly 

    Verse 6
    Godspeed 
    this 
    letter, 
    away 
    from 
    here 

    I've 
    sealed 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    tears, 

    and 
    stamped 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    fists 

    And 
    godspeed 
    this 
    letter, 
    away 
    from 
    you 

    My 
    work 
    down 
    here 
    is 
    through 

    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way 
    to 
    better 
    days 

    And 
    so 
    are you 

    Verse 7
    We 
    know 
    not 
    what 
    we've 
    done 

    And 

    We know 
    not 
    what 

    we've 
    done 


    Verse 8
    Godspeed 
    this 
    letter, 
    away 
    from 
    here 

    I've 
    sealed 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    tears, 

    and 
    stamped 
    it 
    with 
    my 
    fists 

    And 
    godspeed 
    this 
    let
    ter, 
    away 
    from 
    you 

    My 
    work 
    down 
    here 
    is 
    through 

    I'm 
    on 
    my

    are 
    you

    • 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.
