    • Verse 1
    Her 
    house 
    was where 
    the family 

    gathered 
    every 
    Christmas 
    eve 

    A feast 
    was 
    set on 
    the table 
    and 
    gifts 

    were placed 
    be
    neath 
    the 
    tree 

    Everything 
    was picture 
    perfect, 

    Grand
    pa 
    would laugh 
    and 
    say 

    That 
    woman 
    spends 
    the 
    whole 
    year 

    getting 
    ready 
    for 
    this 
    day 

    One 
    year 
    the leaves 
    began 
    Verse 2
    to fall 

    and 
    her health 
    began 
    to fade 

    We 
    moved 
    her to 
    a place 
    where 
    they 

    could 
    watch 
    her 
    night 
    and 
    day 

    But 
    she kept 
    making 
    plans 
    for Christmas 

    from 
    her little 
    room 

    She told 
    everyone, 

    I'll 
    miss 
    you 
    but 
    I'll 
    be leaving 
    soon 

    Verse 3
    I'm going 
    home 
    for Christmas 
    and I'm 

    going 
    home 
    to stay 

    I'm going 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas 

    and nothing's 
    gonna 
    keep 
    me 
    away 

    I'll be 
    with 
    the ones 
    I love 

    to celebrate 
    the Savior's 
    birth 

    This 
    gift 
    will be 
    worth 
    more 
    to 

    me 
    than 
    anything 
    on 
    earth 

    I'm 
    going 
    home, 

    home 
    for Christmas 

    Interlude 1


    All the 
    leaves 
    outside 
    have fallen 
    Verse 4

    to be 
    covered 
    by 
    the snow 

    The 
    family 
    comes 
    with food 
    and gifts 

    and Grandpa 
    comes 
    alone 

    There's 
    a 
    sadness 
    in 
    our 
    silence 
    as 

    the 
    Christmas 
    story's 
    read 

    And 
    with 
    tears, 
    Grandpa 
    re
    minds 
    us 
    of the 

    words 
    that Grandma 
    said 

    Verse 5

    I'm 
    going 
    home 
    for Christmas 

    and I'm 
    going 
    home 
    to stay 

    I'm 
    going 
    home 
    for 
    Christ
    mas 
    and 

    nothing's 
    gonna 
    keep 
    me 
    away 

    She'll 
    be 
    face 
    to face 
    with Jesus 

    as 
    we celebrate 
    His 
    birth 

    And 
    this 
    gift 
    will be 
    worth 
    more 
    to 

    her 
    than 
    anything 
    on 
    earth 

    'Cause 
    she'll 
    be 
    home 

    Verse 6
    And as 
    we sing 
    'Joy 
    to 
    the 

    World' I can't 
    help thinking 

    Of 
    the joy 
    that's 
    in 
    her eyes 
    right 
    now 

    And 
    though 
    our hearts 
    still 
    ache, 

    we 
    know 
    that 
    as 
    we celebrate 

    She's 
    singing 
    with 
    the herald 
    an
    gels 

    and heaven's 
    glowing 
    on 
    her face 

    And 
    now 
    she's 
    Verse 7
    home 
    for 
    Christmas 

    and 
    now 
    she's 
    home 
    to 
    stay 

    She's 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas, 

    and nothin' 
    could've 
    kept 
    her 
    away 

    She'll 
    be 
    face 
    to face 
    with Jesus, 

    as 
    we celebrate 
    His 
    birth 

    And this 
    gift 
    will 
    be 
    worth more 

    to her 
    than anything 
    on 
    earth 

    She's 
    home, 

    she's 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas 

    She 
    is 
    home, 

    she's 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
