Silent Homecoming chords by 
Ringo Starr 
N/A•
Intro 1
G
Verse 1
G
Patiently she stares down the runway,
Today's the day that he
is coming home.
Seems like he's been gone a life time
And a life time is a long time
D
to be gone.
But there are songs that need singing,
G
D
And there are things
G
Bb
that must be done.
There are thoughts that still
need thinking,
D
And there are wars that must be won.
Verse 2
G
He was just a boy when they sent for him
And overnight turned him into a man.
Proudly he had served his country
In a war he didn't seem to
D
understand.
G
The flag still waves, his war is over,
D
G
Bb
He'll never have to kill again.
And as she waits, she thinks it over,
D
Is winning worth the prize we pay to win?
Verse 3
G
Her thoughts keep wandering
to his childhood,
When all his hand grenades
were merely toys.
And "war" was just a game
that he was playing
With plastic guns like other
D
little boys.
G
And ev'ry day when play was over,
D
G
He'd put his little toys away.
Bb
And she'd be standing,
waiting for him,
D
The way she's waiting here today.
Verse 4
G
As the plane stops she starts thinking,
Will he still look the way he did before?
Or will his eyes reflect the pain of killing,
Like most young men when they
D
come home from war?
G
These last few minutes seem like hours,
D
G
Bb
She tries her best not to cry.
But there's that hearse
filled up with flowers,
D
Did he really have to die?
Verse 5
G
No, no, no, no,
No, no, no, no, no,
F
G
No, no, no,
No, no,
F
No, no,
G
No, no, no,
No,
No, no, no,
No,
No, no, no, no, no.

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.”
