    Verse 1
    Under 
    (the) moon, 

    spring 
    time 
    still 
    to 
    come 

    "If 
    keep 
    quest
    ing, 

    may 
    find 
    some 
    settling!" 

    Jack- 
    in- the- 
    Green 
    show 
    me 

    your 
    droll 
    face 
    of 
    wood 

    Look 
    around 
    at 
    the 
    frightened 

    faces 

    Verse 2

    One 
    man speaks, 

    loud 
    and 
    loud 
    he cries 

    "All 
    those 
    strange 
    fellows 
    must 

    go 
    away 
    to 
    barrows!" 

    Then 
    they 
    all went 
    for 
    riot 
    in
    deed 

    Torch 
    in 
    hand 
    and 
    angry 
    glances 



    Verse 3
    [Bridge:] 

    Here 
    is 
    Jenny 
    Greenteeth, twelve 
    miles 

    from 
    the 
    nearest 
    inn 

    (the) innkeep
    er speaks 
    of 
    filthy 
    tricks, 

    she's 
    as old 
    as trees! 

    - be 
    aware 
    - As 

    old 
    as 
    trees! 

    Verse 4
    [Chorus:] 

    Nighttime 
    - never 
    they say, 

    go 
    off 
    alone 

    In 
    their 
    tracks 
    walk 
    - A 
    dreadful 

    strain 

    Their 
    homes 
    so 
    hid
    den, 

    through 
    branches 
    old 
    they 
    wait 

    No 
    gold 
    nor sil
    ver, 
    twiggy 
    arm
    don't 
    want 
    your 
    gold....! 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    In 
    the 
    end, 
    the 
    circle's 
    close 
    at 
    hand 

    Living 
    more 
    gently, 

    let's 
    have 
    a glass 
    of 
    brandy 

    Never 
    they 
    saw 
    their 
    home's 

    door 
    open 
    at 
    night 

    Stars 
    witness 
    their 
    silent 
    traces 



    Verse 6
    [Bridge:] 

    Here 
    is 
    Dana 
    o'Shee, she's 

    dwelling 
    by 
    to 
    take 
    re
    venge 

    Empty 
    a jug 
    of 
    whitest 
    milk 
    over 
    her 
    head! 

    - she'll 
    pass 
    away 

    - Over 
    her 
    head! 

    Verse 7
    [Chorus:] 

    Nighttime 
    - never 
    they say, 

    go 
    off 
    alone 

    In 
    their 
    tracks 
    walk 
    - A 
    dreadful 

    strain 

    Their 
    homes 
    so 
    hid
    den, 

    through 
    branches 
    old 
    they 
    wait 

    No 
    gold 
    nor 
    sil
    ver, 
    fear 
    is 
    sold 
    at 
    half 
    price....!

    • 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.
