    Verse 1
    They looked 
    out 
    their win
    dows 

    at the 
    ocean 
    that 
    surround
    s them 

    In the 
    service 
    of 
    their coun
    try, 

    sailing 
    to 
    a for
    eign 
    shore. 

    To
    morrow 
    will 
    be 
    Christ
    mas, 

    and they 
    wish 
    that 
    they 
    could be 
    home. 

    Their 
    wives 
    and children 
    need 
    them, 

    but their 
    country 
    need
    s them 
    more. 

    But 
    they'll 
    be 
    sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    Where 
    a welcome 
    candle 
    in 

    the window 
    gleam
    s. 

    They'll 
    be sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    sailing 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas, 

    Sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas 

    in 
    their dreams. 

    Tomorrow, 
    they'll 
    serve 
    tur
    key 
    and they'll 

    sing 
    the Christmas 
    car
    ols, 

    They'll 
    talk 
    about 
    their fam
    ilies, 

    their 
    mothers 
    and 
    their sons. 

    It's the 
    strangest 
    contradic
    tion, 

    singing 
    songs 
    of peace 
    and shar
    ing 

    As they 
    man 
    the battle 
    sta
    tions, 

    hoping 
    war 
    will nev
    er 
    come. 

    But 
    they'll 
    be sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    Where 
    a welcome 
    candle 

    in 
    the window 
    gleams. 

    They'll 
    be 
    sailing 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas, 

    sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    Sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas 

    in 
    their dreams. 

    And maybe 
    someday 
    they 
    won't have 

    to be 
    there 
    anymore, 

    When we 
    all 
    start 
    to live 
    the 
    things 
    we have 

    Christmas 
    for. 

    They'll 
    be sail
    ing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    sailing 
    home 
    for Christmas, 

    Where 
    a welcome 
    candle 
    in the 

    window 
    gleams. 

    They'll 
    be 
    sailing 
    home 
    for 
    Christmas, 

    sail
    ing home 
    for 
    Christmas, 

    Sail
    ing 
    home 
    for 

    Christmas 
    in 
    their dreams.

      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 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.

      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.
