    Sailing 
    the

    seas 

    To distant 
    lands 
    unknown 

    Porto 
    Bello 
    fell 
    in 
    a day 

    Now 
    Britannia 
    rules 
    the

    Thirty 
    thousand 
    men 
    at 
    arms 

    Red 
    Ensign 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    To 
    Cartagena 
    we 
    set 
    sail 

    With 
    blood 
    and 
    plunder 
    we'll 
    pre

    vail 


    Twice 
    struck, 
    and 
    twice 
    we've 
    failed 

    But 
    third 
    time 
    works 
    charm 

    The greatest 
    fleet 
    the 
    world 
    has 
    seen 

    To 
    fight 
    the 
    War 
    of 
    Jenkins' Ear 

    Waters

    1741 

    The fi
    nal 
    battle 
    has 
    begun

    • 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.
