    war 
    of 
    '44 

    Every 
    telephone 
    ring 

    every 
    heartbeat 
    stinging 

    When 
    she 
    thought 
    it 
    was 
    God 
    calling 
    her 

    Oh, 
    would 
    her 
    son 
    grow 
    to 
    know 
    his 
    fa
    ther?

    Verse 2
    He 
    showed 
    up 
    all 
    wet 
    on 
    the 
    rainy 
    front 
    step 

    Wearing 
    shrapnel 
    in 
    his 
    skin 

    And 
    the 
    war 
    he 
    saw 

    lives 
    inside 
    him 
    still 


    It's 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    be 
    gentle 
    and 
    warm 

    The 
    years 
    pass 
    by 

    and 
    now 
    he 
    has 
    grand
    daughters

    it 
    be?

    lives 
    to 
    be

    • 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.
