    Verse 1
    On 
    the 
    road 
    to 
    Basra 
    stood 
    young 

    Lieutenant 
    Jimmy 
    Bly 

    Detailed 
    to 
    go 
    through 
    the 
    clothes 

    of 
    the soldiers 
    who 
    died 

    At 
    night 
    in 
    dreams 
    he 
    sees 
    their 
    souls 
    rise 

    Verse 2
    Like 
    dark 
    geese 
    into 
    the 
    Oklahoma 
    skies 


    Well 
    this 
    is 
    a 
    prayer 
    for 
    the souls 

    of 
    the departed 

    Those 
    who've 
    gone 
    and left 

    their 
    ba
    bies 
    brokenhearted 

    This 
    is 
    a 
    prayer 
    for 
    the 

    Verse 3
    souls 
    of 
    the 
    departed 


    Now 
    Raphael 
    Rodriguez 
    was 

    just 
    seven 
    years 
    old 

    Shot 
    down 
    in 
    a schoolyard 
    by 

    some 
    East 
    Compton 
    Cholos 

    His 
    mamma 
    cried 
    "My 

    beautiful 
    boy 
    is 
    dead" 

    In 
    the 
    hills 
    the self- 
    made 
    men 
    just 

    sighed 
    and shook 
    their 
    heads 

    This is 
    a 
    prayer 
    for 
    the souls 
    of 
    Verse 4

    the 
    departed 

    Those 
    who've 
    gone 
    and left 
    their 

    ba
    bies 
    brokenhearted 

    Young 
    lives 
    over 
    before 
    they 
    got 
    started 

    This 
    is 
    a 
    prayer 
    for 
    the 
    souls 

    of 
    the departed 

    Verse 5

    Tonight 
    as 
    I 
    tuck 
    my 
    own 
    son 
    in 
    bed 

    All 
    I 
    can 
    think 
    of 
    is 
    what 
    if it 

    would've 
    been 
    him 
    instead 

    I want 
    to build 
    me 
    a wall 
    so 
    high 

    nothing 
    can 
    burn 
    it 
    down 

    Right 
    here 
    on my 
    own 
    piece 

    of 
    dirty 
    ground 

    Verse 6

    Now 
    I 
    ply 
    my 
    trade 
    in 
    the 

    land 
    of 
    king 
    dollar 

    Where 
    you 
    get 
    paid 
    and 

    your silence 
    passes 
    as 
    honor 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    hatred 
    and 
    dirty 
    little 
    lies 

    Outro 1
    Been 
    written 
    off 
    the 
    books 
    and 
    into 
    decent 
    men's 
    eyes

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
