    Verse 1
    Once 
    a week 
    I make 
    the drive, 

    two hours 
    east

    To 
    check 
    the 
    Austin 
    post 
    office 
    box 

    And 
    I make 
    the detour 
    through 

    our old 
    neighborhood 

    See 
    all 
    the 
    Chevy 
    Impalas in 
    their 

    front 
    yards 
    up 
    on 
    blocks 

    Verse 2
    And I 
    park 
    in 
    an alley 

    And 
    I 
    read 
    through 
    the postcards 

    you 
    continue 
    to send 

    Where 
    as 
    indir
    ectly 
    as 
    you can, 

    you ask 
    what 
    I 
    remember 

    I 
    like 
    these 
    torture 
    devices 

    from my 
    old 
    best 
    friend 

    Verse 3
    Well, I'll 
    tell 
    you what 
    I 
    know, 

    like 
    I swore 
    I always 
    would 

    I don't 
    think 
    it's gonna 
    do 
    you 
    any 
    good 

    I 
    remem
    ber 
    the train 
    headed 

    south 
    out 
    of Bangkok 

    Down 
    to
    ward 
    the wa
    ter 


    Verse 4
    I always 
    get a 
    late start 

    when the 
    sun's 
    going 
    down 

    And the 
    traffic's 
    thinning 
    out 

    and 
    the 
    glare 
    is hard 
    to 
    take 

    I 
    wish 
    the 
    West 
    Texas 
    Highway 

    was 
    a 
    mobius strip 

    I could 
    ride 
    it out 
    forever 

    Verse 5
    When 
    I 
    feel 
    my 
    heart 
    break, 
    I 
    almost 
    swear 
    I 
    hear 
    it happen, 

    in fact, 
    clean 
    and not 
    hard 

    I 
    come 
    in off 
    the 
    highway 
    and 

    I park 
    in my 
    front 
    yard 

    Fall 
    out 
    of the 
    car 
    like 
    a 

    hostage 
    from a 
    plane 

    Think 
    of you 
    a while, 

    start 
    wishing 
    it 
    would 
    rain 

    Verse 6
    And I 
    re
    member 
    the train 
    headed 

    south 
    out 
    of Bangkok 

    Down 
    toward 
    the wa

    Interlude 1


    Verse 7
    I 
    come 
    into 
    the 
    house, 

    put 
    on a 
    pot 
    of 
    coffee 

    Walk 
    the 
    floors 
    a little 
    while 

    I set 
    your postcard 
    on 
    the table 

    with 
    all 
    the others 
    like 
    it 

    I 
    start 
    sorting 
    through 
    the 
    pile 

    Verse 8
    I 
    check 
    the pic
    tures 
    and the 
    postmarks 

    and the 
    captions 
    and the 
    stamps 

    For signs 
    of any 
    pattern 
    at 
    all 

    When I 
    come 
    up empty-han
    ded 
    the 

    the 
    feeling 
    almost 
    overwhelms 
    me 

    I let 
    a few 
    of my 
    de
    fenses 
    fall 

    Verse 9
    And I smile 
    a bitter 
    smile 

    It's 
    not a 
    pretty 
    thing 
    to see 

    I think 
    about 
    a railroad 
    platform 

    Back 
    in 
    1983 And 
    I 
    remem
    ber 
    the train 

    headed 
    south 
    out

      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 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.
