    Oh, 
    was glad 
    the 
    strikes 

    done 
    shooted 
    along 

    Geordie 

    Reed 

    To 
    the 
    group 
    that 
    was standing 
    -roam 

    For 
    the 
    care 
    and 
    anxiety's 

    now 
    torn 
    me 
    heed 

    And 
    I was getting 
    as 
    thin 
    as 
    home 

    For 
    an 
    army 
    in 

    Jenny 
    had 
    prom
    ised 
    to 
    wed 

    When 
    the money 
    to 
    start 
    -house 
    was won 

    But 
    the 
    unluck
    stock 

    caused 
    more 
    spirits 
    to 
    drop 

    So 

    I's 
    glad, 
    very 
    glad 
    the 
    strike's 
    done 

    I's 
    glad 
    the 
    strike's 
    done, 

    said 
    half 
    -grown 
    lad 

    For 
    the 
    brasset 
    was 
    getting 
    so 
    short 

    And 
    the bowlin' 
    and the 
    runnin' 

    was 
    gone 
    to the 
    bard, 

    And we'd 
    nigh 
    seen 
    the 
    finish 
    to 
    sport. 

    To 

    Newcastle 
    races, 
    some 
    merry 
    and 
    blight, 

    Well 
    yet 
    start 
    like 
    shot 
    of 
    gun

    And it's 
    near 
    now 
    well 
    late 

    to 
    back one 
    for 
    the 
    plate, 

    So 

    I's 
    glad, 
    I'm very 
    glad 

    the 
    strike's 
    done. 

    was 
    glad 
    the 
    strike's 
    done 

    for 
    the 
    sake 
    of 
    my wife 

    Says 
    the brave 
    little 
    chap 
    for 
    the crowd 

    For 
    the 
    pinchin' 
    and 

    plannin' 
    and 
    sorrow 

    and 
    strife 

    Nearly 
    had 
    the poor 
    lass 
    in 
    shroud 

    Now 
    can
    nae 
    bid 

    Benzel 
    look 
    tidy 
    and 
    trim 

    When 
    the chapel 
    unsunders 
    that 
    yule 

    And 
    how 
    thank
    ful, 
    says 
    he, 

    every
    body 
    should 
    be 

    That 
    the 
    unlucky 
    strike 
    is 
    now 
    done 

    Was 
    glad 
    the strike's 
    done, 
    cried 
    out 

    Shockey 

    Paddjoe 

    And his 
    words 
    expressed 
    all 
    that 
    he 
    said 

    For 
    his 
    face 
    wore 
    smile 
    and 
    his lips 
    give 

    smack 

    As 
    he 
    talked 
    to 
    the 
    prospects 
    of trade 

    Oh, 
    the 
    business, 

    what 
    thrivers 
    it 
    did 
    once 
    before, 

    In the 
    wheels 
    of 
    prosperity 
    run

    Aye, 
    an
    d I'll 
    get 
    me whack, 

    see a 
    shop 
    keep a 
    jack, 

    So 

    I's 
    glad, 
    I'm very 
    glad 
    the 

    strike's 
    done. 

    Then 
    the 
    crowd 
    all 
    agreed 
    with 

    the 
    nod 
    of 
    the heed, 

    Though I 
    pleased 
    the 
    bad 

    job 
    was put 
    straight, 

    In 
    woman 
    or 
    two 
    was 
    the crowd 

    that passed 
    through, 

    Give full 
    vent 
    to 
    the 
    happy 
    delight. 

    While 
    the bands 
    in 
    the 
    street 

    were 
    their voices 
    so 
    sweet, 

    In 
    the height 
    of 
    the glory 
    and 
    fun. 

    Shoot it 
    hip 
    -hip -hooray, 

    way 
    it 
    settled 
    the 
    day, 

    And we're 
    glad, 

    very 
    glad 
    the 
    strike's 
    done. 

    you

      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.
