    Blackwell 

    Jr. 
    too 

    They 
    left 

    Clinton, 

    Maryland, 
    1992 

    They 
    may 
    be living 
    in 
    a mansion 
    now 

    They 
    might 
    have hit 
    the skids 

    Parents 
    play 
    get 
    even 
    games 

    They cheat 
    by 
    stealing 
    kids 

    All 
    those 
    photos 
    in your 
    junk 
    mail 

    That's 
    how the 
    kid 
    might 
    look today 

    Un
    less 
    he 
    grew his 
    hair 
    long 

    Or 
    had 
    his 
    face 
    changed 
    some 
    new 
    way 

    He 
    might 
    be 
    an 

    Eagle 

    Scout, 
    he 
    might be 
    robbin' 
    liquor 
    stores 

    He 
    might 
    have joined 
    an 
    army 
    an
    d 

    disappeared 
    in 
    foreign 
    wars 

    Stolen 
    children, 
    unformed 
    hearts 

    Faces 
    on 
    milk 
    cartons 
    rollin' 
    round 

    in 
    shoppin' 
    carts 

    Someone 
    took 
    a 
    kid and 
    ran, 

    someone 
    left 
    at 
    home 

    Paralyzed

    Now 
    my 
    youngest

    don't 
    speak 
    to me 

    I've 
    known

    Send

    Interlude 1



    Verse 2
    The 
    family 
    was 
    dysfunctional, 

    that's 
    a 
    word doctors 
    love 
    to use 

    A 
    worn 
    out, 
    cheap, 

    pretentious 
    term 
    walking 
    round 
    in 
    hundred 
    dollar 
    shoes 

    Fits 
    cars 
    and 
    lawnmowers 
    an

    d things 
    that 
    run on 
    gas 

    While 
    human 
    babies 
    cry 
    real 
    tears 

    and 
    hearts 
    turn 
    cruel 
    too 
    fast 

    Stolen 
    children, 
    unformed 
    hearts 

    Faces

    milk 
    cartons 
    rollin'

    the 
    kid 
    and ran, 

    someone

      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

      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.
