    • Verse 1

    I got 
    your address 
    from 

    the phone book 
    at the library 

    Wandered in, 

    looked you 
    up and 
    you were there 

    Weird 
    that you've 
    been 
    living, maybe, 

    2 miles away 
    for the 
    best part 
    of 
    20 years 

    You must 
    be, what, 

    in 
    your early 
    forties 
    now 

    If I 
    remember, 

    You were born 
    in June 

    or was 
    it May? 

    Eisenhower 
    was the president 
    although 

    it 
    may 
    have been 
    JFK 

    Verse 2
    Years of si
    lence 

    Not 
    enough 
    who 
    could blame 

    us 
    giving 
    up? 

    Above 
    the quiet 
    there's 
    a buzz 

    That's 
    me 
    try
    ing 

    Verse 3
    You 
    still working 
    in that 
    store 
    on 

    Ventura? 

    You still going 
    with 
    no, 
    that's 
    not fair 

    I know I 
    haven't been the 

    very best 
    of 
    dads 

    I'll hold 
    my hand 
    up there 

    The reason 
    that 
    I'm writing 

    is that 
    I'd like for 
    us to meet 

    Get a little 
    daughter 
    dad action 

    going 
    soon 

    We can put 
    thing
    s behind 
    us 

    Eat some pizza, 
    drink some 
    beer 

    You still see 
    your sister 
    Lemli? 

    Bring her, 
    too 

    Verse 4
    Years 
    of si
    lence, 
    not 
    enough 

    Who 
    could blame 
    us 
    giving 
    up? 

    Above 
    the quiet 
    there's 
    a buzz 

    That's 
    me 
    try
    ing 

    Verse 5
    But 
    I 
    don't want to talk 
    about 

    any of that 
    bad stuff 

    Why I 
    missed out 
    on your wedding 

    and your 
    high school 
    graduation 

    I'd like 
    to explain, 
    but I can't 

    So 
    let's 
    keep things 
    neutral 

    Stick 
    to topics 
    that won't 

    bug us 

    Verse 6
    How 'bout this? 

    Let's 
    choose 
    a book 
    and we'll 

    read 
    it before 
    we meet 

    Then we can 
    sit down 
    at a restaurant 

    Have a 
    look at the menu 
    and 

    talk about 
    it while we eat 

    See, 
    if we never 
    had a problem 

    Then 
    that's what 
    life would 
    be like 

    Easy 

    Uncomplicated 

    Verse 7
    Cool 

    So 
    let's 
    just pre
    tend 

    that the past 
    didn't hap
    pen 

    I 
    don't really 
    like 
    thriller as 

    well. 

    I don't want 
    to 
    know if I've 

    got grandchildren 

    no 
    need to tell 
    me 
    where I 
    went wrong 

    I don't 
    want to know 

    what happene
    d in your 
    thirties 

    You 
    want to try 
    'cold 
    mountain'? 

    Or is 
    that 
    too long?? 

    Verse 8
    Years 
    of si
    lence, 
    not 
    enough 

    Who 
    could blame 
    us

      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.
