    Eg veit 
    i 
    himmer 
    i kaj 
    borg, 

    Oskin 
    som 
    sol 
    i 
    klare, 

    Der 
    er ikkje 
    synder 
    eller 
    sor
    g, 

    Der 
    er ikkje 
    gråt 
    og tåre. 




    My

    is 

    Ambrose 

    Larson 

    From 
    the 

    Bergen 
    shore 
    I've come 

    I've been cheated 
    for 
    my wages 

    Could

    tongue

    The 
    blackbirds 
    and the 
    locusts 

    Destroyed 
    our corn 
    and 
    wheat. 

    The hawks 
    they 
    ate

    Our 
    children

      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 🙂

      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.
