  • Verse 1
    They 
    married 
    in 
    June 
    one 
    afternoon 
    in 

    church 
    down 
    by 
    their home 

    She 
    wore 
    the ring 
    his 
    mother 
    gave 
    him 

    The 
    day 
    that he 
    left 
    home 

    They 
    danced 
    before 
    their 
    families 
    and 

    They 
    held 
    each 
    other close 

    And 
    on that 
    lovely 
    night 
    in June 

    Oh he 
    loved 
    her 
    so 

    Verse 2
    The 
    war 
    took 
    him 
    to Paris 

    One 
    year since 
    they had 
    wed 

    He packed 
    envelopes 
    and cigarettes 

    Ink 
    and his 
    fountain 
    pen 

    He 
    said, 
    "I will 
    send 
    you 
    letters 

    Each 
    week 
    that I 
    am 
    gone 

    And I 
    promise 
    you'll 
    feel 
    better 

    When the 
    postman 
    comes" 

    Verse 3
    The 
    war 
    had passed 
    on slowly 
    and 

    His 
    boots 
    had lost 
    their 
    tread 

    But still 
    he wrote 
    his 
    letters, 
    this 

    Week this 
    one 
    had 
    said 

    "You 
    are always 
    with 
    me 
    even 

    When I 
    feel 
    alone 

    And 
    this 
    rifle 
    bears 
    a burden 
    and 

    It's 
    heavy 
    on 
    my 
    soul 

    But 
    you won't 
    have 
    to 
    miss 
    me 

    As once 
    this 
    war 
    is won 

    We 
    will 
    be 
    together 
    when the 

    postman 
    comes" 

    Verse 4

    She 
    opens 
    the door 
    to 

    a man 
    with 
    a telegram 

    A sad 
    look 
    on his face 

    She 
    wipes 
    away 
    a single 
    tear 

    As 
    she 
    hears him 
    say 

    Something 
    about 
    the military, 

    apologies 

    And the ministry 
    and 
    she fell, 

    to 
    the floor 

    She ques
    tioned 
    him, 
    said 
    you've 

    Got 
    this 
    wrong 

    My 
    husband's 
    fast, 

    my 
    husband's 
    strong 

    And I 
    promise 
    you'll 
    know 

    better 

    When the 
    postman 
    comes 

    Verse 5

    If 
    you've 
    received 
    this 
    letter 

    It 
    means 
    the worst 
    is done 

    I'm sorry 
    and I 
    love 
    you 

    This isn't 
    what 
    I want 

    But 
    you 
    will find 
    another 

    And I 
    will 
    understand 

    just 
    hope he 
    loves 
    you 

    More 
    than 
    any 
    other 
    can 

    sent 
    you all 
    these 
    letters 
    and 

    For 
    reasons 
    there's 
    just 
    one 

    It is 
    me you 
    will 
    remember 

    When the 
    postman 
    comes 

    When the 
    postman 
    comes

    • 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

      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.
