    won't 

    be 

    home 
    tonight 
    for 
    dinner, 
    darling 

    You 
    and 
    the kids 
    can 
    make 
    it 
    on 
    your 
    own 

    Little 

    Bud 
    can 
    say 
    the grace 
    like 
    do 

    When 
    get 
    my work 
    done, 
    I'll 
    be 
    home 

    One 
    last 
    sip 
    of cof
    fee, 

    then 
    he 
    buckles 
    on 
    his gun

    Bending 
    down, 
    kissed 

    Jamie 
    off 
    to school 

    Turn
    ing 
    in 
    the 
    doorway, 

    he remem
    bers 
    and 
    says, 

    Hon, 
    this 
    could 
    be 
    the day, 

    so just 
    stay 
    cool 

    Walked 
    out 
    to the 
    squad 
    car, 

    and 
    he soon 
    was 
    on 
    his way 

    Checked 
    downtown 
    to 
    see 

    which 
    way 
    to hop 

    Back 
    home 
    in 
    the kitchen, 
    washing 
    dishes 
    with 
    a sigh, 

    she 
    wished 
    out 
    loud 
    her man 
    was 
    not 
    cop. 

    won't 
    be 
    home 
    tonight 
    for 
    dinner, 
    darling, 

    you 
    and 
    the kids 
    can 
    make 
    it 
    on 
    your 
    own. 

    Little 

    Bud 
    can say 
    the grace 
    like 
    do, 

    and 
    when I 
    get 
    my work 
    done, 
    I'll 
    be 
    home. 

    His 
    day 
    was 
    spent 
    in planning 
    for 

    the 
    raid 
    to 
    come 
    that 
    night 

    One 
    by one 
    the pieces 
    fell 
    in place 

    Strangely 
    discontented, 

    feeling 
    an
    ger 
    mixed 
    with 
    fright 

    She 
    warmed 
    the meatloaf 

    up 
    and 
    but 
    said 
    grace 

    The 
    raid 
    went off 
    like clockwork, 

    each 
    po
    liceman 
    knew 
    the 
    plan 

    The 
    white stuff 
    made 

    a million 
    dollar 
    haul 

    Just 
    three 
    shots 
    were fired 
    and 

    the cops 
    lost 
    just 
    one 
    man 

    And 
    stumbling 
    out 
    of 
    bed, 
    she 
    took 
    the 
    call 

    won't 
    be 
    home 
    tonight 
    for 
    dinner, 

    darling 

    You 
    and 
    the 
    kids 
    can 
    make 
    it 
    on 
    your 
    own 

    Little 

    Bud 
    can 
    say 
    the grace 
    like 
    do 

    When 
    get 
    my work 
    done, 

    I'll 
    be 
    home 

    There's 
    lots 
    of guys 
    like 

    Jim 
    around 
    the 
    country 

    Doing 
    work 
    that never 
    was 
    much 
    fun 

    Not 
    just 
    pounding 
    beats 

    and 
    writing 
    tickets 

    More 
    and more 
    their 
    work 
    requires 
    gun 

    So 
    nex
    time 
    that 

    you see 
    cop 
    saluting 

    Tip 
    your hat, 
    maybe 
    shake 
    his 
    hand 

    Just 
    like 
    you and 
    me, 

    he's 
    got 
    a fam
    ily 

    Just 
    like 
    us, 
    his 
    family 
    need
    their 
    man 

    won't 
    be 
    home 
    tonight 
    for 
    dinner, 
    darling 

    You 
    and 
    the kids 
    can 
    make 
    it 
    on 
    your 
    own 

    Little 

    Bud 
    can 
    say 
    the grace 
    like 
    do 

    And 
    when I 
    get 
    my 
    work 
    done, 

    I'll 
    be 
    home 

    Won't 
    be 
    home, 
    won't 
    be 
    home 

    Won't 
    be 
    home, 
    won't 
    be 
    home 

    Won't 
    be 
    home, 
    won't 
    be 
    home

    • 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.
