    Verse 1
    My 
    Dearest 
    son, 
    it's 
    almost 
    June 

    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 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Your 
    stubborn 
    old 
    daddy 

    Ain't 
    said 
    too 
    much 

    But 
    I'm 
    sure 
    you 
    know 

    He 
    sends 
    his 
    love 

    And 
    she 
    goes 
    on 

    In 
    letter 
    from 
    home 

    Chorus 1
    hold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    show 
    my 
    buddies 

    Like 
    we 
    ain't 
    scared 

    And 
    our 
    boots 
    ain't 
    muddy 

    And 
    they 
    all 
    laugh 

    Like 
    there's 
    something 
    funny 

    'Bout 
    the 
    way 
    talk 

    When 
    say, 
    "Mamma 
    sends 
    her 
    best, 
    y'all" 

    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 
    letters 
    from 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    My 
    dearest 
    love, 
    it's 
    almost 
    dawn 

    I've 
    been 
    lyin' 
    here 
    all 
    night 
    long 

    Wonderin' 
    where 
    you 
    might 
    be 

    saw 
    your 
    mamma 

    And 
    showed 
    her 
    the 
    ring 

    Man 
    on 
    the 
    television 

    Said 
    something 

    So 
    couldn't 
    sleep 

    Pre-chorus 2
    But 
    I'll 
    be 
    al
    right 

    I'm 
    just 
    missin' 
    you 

    And 
    this 
    is 
    me 
    kissin'

    we 
    ain't 
    scared 

    And 
    our 
    boots 
    ain't 
    muddy 

    And 
    they 
    all 
    laugh 

    'Cause 
    she 
    calls 
    me 
    honey, 

    but 
    they 
    take 
    it 
    hard 

    'Cause 
    don't 
    read 
    the 
    good 
    parts 

    fold 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    put 
    it 
    in 
    my 
    shirt 

    Pick 
    up 
    my 
    gun 
    and 
    get 
    back 
    to

    Bridge 1

    Dear 
    son,

    I'm

    alone 
    in

    It 
    oc
    curs

    might 
    not

    say 
    it 
    now

    no 
    one 
    laughs 

    'Cause 
    there's 
    ain't 
    nothin'

    • 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.
