    Verse 1
    Little 
    Tom, 

    what 
    will 
    be 
    your 
    fate? 

    Little 

    Tom, 
    will 
    you 
    be 
    someone 
    great? 

    Do 
    you 
    know 
    right 
    from 
    wrong 

    Are 
    they 
    teachin' 
    you 
    at 
    home 

    Or 
    are 
    you 
    left 
    to 
    roam 

    Little 
    town 

    went 
    into 
    a cafe 
    and 
    ordered 

    myself 
    something 
    to 
    eat 

    When 
    little 
    boy 
    walked 
    in 

    with 
    shoes 
    half 
    off 
    his 
    feet 

    He 
    said, 
    my 
    paper 
    mister? 
    said, 

    how 
    old 
    are you 
    son? 

    Seven 
    sir, 
    and 
    when my 
    papers 
    are 
    sold 

    I'll be 
    on my 
    way home. 

    What's 
    your name? 

    Thomas 
    sir, 
    but everybody 
    calls 
    me little 

    Tom. 

    They 
    named 
    me after 
    my 
    daddy, 

    but this 
    hair 
    looks 
    like my 
    mom. 

    Why 
    it's almost 
    midnight, 

    and 
    you should 
    be home 
    asleep. 

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

    and 
    I gotta help 
    mommy 
    buy 
    something 
    to 
    eat. 

    My 
    daddy's 
    pretty 
    mean 
    to us, 

    and 
    he spends 
    most 
    of 
    his 
    money 
    for wine 

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

    cause, 
    well, 
    he 
    gets 
    fired 
    all 
    the time 

    said, 
    have something 
    to 
    eat, 

    son, 
    aren't 
    you hungry? 

    guess 
    a little 
    bit, 

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

    said, is 
    that enough? 

    Make 
    it two, 
    ain't eaten 
    since 
    lunch 

    Where 
    do you 
    live, 
    son? 

    On 

    Main 

    Street, 
    sir, 
    there's six 
    of 

    us 
    lives 
    in one 
    room. 

    That's 
    me 
    and my three 
    brothers 

    and my 
    mommy 
    and 
    my dad. 

    But 
    I'm 
    gonna buy 
    mommy 
    big house 
    someday, 

    if 
    I have 
    to turn 
    out 
    bad. 

    My 
    appetite 
    left 
    me 
    as 

    sat there 
    watching 
    him, 

    an
    d I 
    thought, 
    he's 
    just 
    one of 
    thousands 

    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 

    when 
    they're 
    at fault 
    most 
    of 
    the time. 

    bit 
    my 
    lip 
    and fought 
    back 
    tears 
    as I 

    watched 
    the 
    little guy 
    leave 
    the 
    cafe, 

    and 
    I wondered 
    how 
    many more 
    chil

    dren 
    would 
    be 
    brought 
    up 
    that way. 

    Little 

    Tom, 

    what 
    will 
    be 
    your 
    fate? 

    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.
