    My 
    dearest 
    son, 
    it's 
    almost 

    June. 
    I 
    hope 
    this 
    letter 
    catches 
    up 

    with 
    you 
    and 
    finds 
    you 
    well. 

    It's 
    been 
    dry, 

    but 
    they're 
    callin' 
    for 
    rain 

    And 
    everything's 
    the 
    same 

    old 
    same 
    in

    Johnsonville 

    Your 
    stubborn 
    old 
    daddy 

    ain't 
    said 
    too 
    much 

    But 
    I'm 
    sure 
    you 
    know 
    he 
    sends 
    his 
    love 

    And 
    she 
    goes 
    on 
    in 

    a 
    letter 
    from 
    home 

    I 
    hold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    show 
    my 
    buddies 
    like 

    We 
    ain't 
    scared 
    and 
    our 

    butts 
    ain't 
    muddy 

    And 
    they 
    all 
    laugh 
    like 
    there's 

    something 
    funny 

    About 
    the 
    way 
    I 
    talk 

    When 
    I 
    say 

    Mama 
    sends 
    her 
    best, 
    y 
    'all 

    I 
    fold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    put 
    it 
    in 
    my 
    shirt 

    Pick 
    up 
    my 
    gun 
    and 
    get 
    back 
    to 
    work 

    And 
    it 
    keeps 
    me 
    drivin' 
    on 

    Waitin' 
    on 
    let
    ter

    s 
    from 
    home 

    My 
    dearest 
    love, 
    it's almost 
    dawn 

    I've 
    been 
    lying 
    here 
    all 
    night 
    long 

    Wondering 
    where 
    you 
    might 
    be 
    I 
    saw 

    your 
    mama 
    and 
    I 
    showed 
    her 
    the 
    ring 

    Man 
    on 
    the 
    television 
    said 
    something, 

    so 
    I 
    couldn't 
    sleep 

    But 
    I'll 
    be 
    alright, 

    I'm 
    just 
    missing 
    you 

    And 
    this 
    is 
    me 
    kiss
    ing 
    you 

    X's 
    and 

    O's 

    And 
    a 
    letter 
    from 
    home 

    I 
    hold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    show 
    my 
    buddies 

    like 
    we 
    ain't 
    scared 
    of 
    night 

    But 
    this 
    ain't 
    muddy 
    and 
    they 
    all 
    laugh 

    Cause 
    she 
    calls 
    me 
    honey 

    but 
    they 
    take 
    it 
    hard 

    Cause 
    I 
    don't 
    read 
    the 
    good 
    part 

    I 
    fold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    put 
    it 
    in 
    my 
    shirt 

    Pick 
    up 
    my 
    gun 
    and 
    get 
    back 
    to 
    work 

    And 
    it 
    keeps 
    me 
    driving 
    on 

    Waiting 
    on 

    Letters 
    from 
    home 

    Dear 
    son, 
    I know 
    I 
    ain't 
    written 

    Sitting 
    here 
    tonight 
    alone 

    In 
    the 
    kitchen, 
    it 
    oc
    curs 
    to 
    me 

    I 
    might 
    not 
    have 
    said 
    it, 
    so 
    I'll 
    say 
    it 
    now 

    Son, 
    you make 
    me 
    proud 

    I 
    hold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    show 
    my 
    buddies

    our 
    boots 

    Ain't 
    muddy, 
    but 
    no 
    one 
    laughs 

    Cause 
    there 
    ain't 
    nothin' 

    funny 
    when 
    a 
    soldier 
    cries 

    And

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
