    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Sometime 
    back 
    in 
    '86 when 
    big 

    banks 
    took 
    the throne 

    They 
    asked 
    that 
    every 
    local 
    farmer 

    try 
    to dry 
    his 
    own 
    corn 

    But 
    the man 
    in 
    the suit 
    had 
    a 
    bigger 

    plan 
    than 
    to 
    let 
    it 
    be 
    their 
    own 

    When 
    the crops 
    came 
    in 
    that 

    spring 
    they 
    were 
    blown 

    Verse 5

    Neil

    Willie 
    tried 
    so 
    hard 

    in 
    battles 
    they 
    have 
    gone 

    But 
    that 
    was 
    still 
    longer 
    after 
    the 

    much 
    big
    ger 
    war 
    had 
    been 
    won 

    No 
    one 
    was 
    there 
    to 
    save 
    the 
    wheat 

    and 
    the 
    cattle 
    at 
    our 
    home 

    They 
    took 
    every 
    field 
    my 
    family 
    owned 

    Verse 6
    No 
    one 
    moves 
    away 
    with 
    no

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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.
