    • Verse 1
    I fought 
    in a 
    war 
    and 
    I left 

    my 
    friends 
    behind 
    me 

    To go 
    looking 
    for 
    the 
    enemy, 

    and 
    it wasn't 
    very 
    long 

    Before 
    I 
    would stand 
    with 

    another 
    boy 
    in 
    front 
    of 
    me 

    And 
    a corpse 
    that 
    just 
    fell 
    into 
    me, 

    with 
    the bullets 
    flying 
    round 

    Verse 2
    And 
    I 
    reminded 
    myself 
    of 
    the 
    words 
    you 

    said 
    when 
    we 
    were 
    getting 
    on 

    And 
    I 
    bet 
    you're 
    making 
    shells 
    back 

    home 
    for 
    a steady 
    boy 
    to 
    wear 

    Round 
    his 
    neck, 
    well 
    it 
    won't 
    hurt 
    to think 

    of 
    you 
    as 
    if 
    you're 
    waiting 
    for 

    This 
    letter 
    to 
    arrive 
    because 
    I'll 
    be 

    here 
    quite 
    a while 

    Verse 3

    I fought 
    in 
    a war 
    and 
    I 
    left

    To 
    go

    for 
    the 
    enemy, 

    and 
    it 
    wasn't 
    very 
    long 

    Before 
    I 
    found 
    out 
    that 
    the sick

    ness 
    there 
    ahead 
    of 
    me 

    Went 
    bey
    ond 
    the 
    bedsit infamy 

    of 
    the decade 
    gone 
    be
    fore 

    Verse 4
    And 
    I 
    re
    minded 
    myself 
    of 
    the 
    words 

    you said 
    when 
    we 
    were 
    getting 
    on 

    And 
    I 
    bet 
    you're 
    making

    Verse 5
    I fought 
    in 
    a war, 

    and 
    I didn't 
    know 
    where 
    it 
    would 
    end 

    It stretched 
    before 
    me 
    infinitely, 

    I 
    couldn't 
    really 
    think 

    Of 
    the 
    day 
    beyond 
    now, 

    keep 
    your 
    head 
    down 
    pal 

    There's 
    trouble 
    plenty 
    in 
    this 
    hour, 
    this 
    day 

    I 
    can 
    see 
    hope 
    I 
    can 
    see 
    light 

    Verse 6
    And 
    I 
    re
    minded 
    myself 
    of 
    the 
    looks 
    you 

    gave 
    when 
    we 
    were 
    getting 
    on 

    And I 
    bet 
    you're 
    making 
    shells 
    back 

    home

      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.
