Verse 1

Oh,

was glad

the

strikes

done

shooted

along

Geordie

Reed

To

the

group

that

was standing

around

For

the

care

and

anxiety's

now

torn

me

heed

And

I was getting

as

thin

as

a

hone

For

an

army

in

Jenny

had

prom

ised

to

wed

When

the

money

to

start

-house

was won

But

the

unlucky

stock

caused

more

spir

its

to

drop

So

I's

glad,

very

glad

the

strike's

done

I's

glad

the

strike's

done,

said

a

half

-grown

lad

How

a

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

a

shot

of

a

gun

.

And it's

nae

now

a

late

to

back one

for the

plate,

So I's

glad,

I'm very

glad

the

strike's

done.

I

was

glad

the

strike's

done

for

the

sake

of

me wife

Says

the brave

little

chap

for

the

crowd

For

the

pinchin'

and

plannin'

and

sorrow

and

strife

Nearly

had

the poor

lass

in

a

shroud

Now

can

nae

bid

Benzel

look

tidy

and

trim

When

the

chapel

on

Sunday's

the

tun

e

And

how thank

ful,

says

he,

everybody

should

be

That

the

unlucky

strike

is

now

done

Was

glad

the strike's

done,

cried

out

Shockey

Padjou

And

his

words

expressed

all

that

he

said

For

his

face

wore

a

smile

and

his

lips

give a

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 his

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

a

woman

or

two,

as

the crowd

that passed

through

Gave

full

vent

to

their

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,

the 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.
Great to tune and play

I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
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!!!
Very reliable tuner

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.

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.
