Verse 1
D

Little Tom,
A
D

what will be your fate?

Little
A
D

Tom, will you be someone great?
A
D

Do you know right from wrong
G

Are they teachin' you at home
D
A

Or are you left to roam
D

Little town

I went into a cafe and ordered
A

myself something to eat
D

When a little boy walked in

with shoes half off his feet
A

He said, my paper mister? I said,
D

how old are you son?

Seven sir, and when my papers are sold

I'll be on my way home.
A

What's your name?
D

Thomas sir, but everybody calls me little
G

Tom.

They named me after my daddy,
D

but this hair looks like my mom.

Why it's almost midnight,
A

and you should be home asleep.
D

I know it, but I wanted to get me a bicycle,

and I gotta help mommy buy something to eat.
A

My daddy's pretty mean to us,
D

and he spends most of his money for wine

And he don't hold a job like other men,
A

cause, well, he gets fired all the time
D

I said, have something to eat,

son, aren't you hungry?

I guess a little bit,

I believe I'll have a hamburger and a glass of milk to go with it
G

I said, is that enough?

Make it two, ain't eaten since lunch
A
D

Where do you live, son?

On

Main
A

Street, sir, there's six of

us lives in one room.
D

That's me and my three brothers

and my mommy and my dad.

But I'm gonna buy mommy a big house someday,
A
D

if I have to turn out bad.

My appetite left me as I

sat there watching him,
A

and I thought, he's just one of thousands
D

that's brought up in a home of sin,

where the parents declare their children

and forget the maker of all mankind,

and then wonder why there's juvenile delinquency
G

when they're at fault most of the time.

I bit my lip and fought back tears as I
D
Bm
D

watched the little guy leave the cafe,
A

and I wondered how many more chil
Bm
Gm

dren would be brought up that way.

Little
D

Tom,
A

what will be your fate?
D

Thank you for watching.

  • 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.
