    Verse 1
    Take 

    the 
    wheel 
    I 
    hear 
    the 
    timbers 
    creaking 

    Take 
    the wheel 
    I 
    think 
    this ship 
    is 
    sinking 

    Jamaica 
    seems 
    so 
    far 
    and 

    I've 
    been 
    thinking 

    Old 
    Billy 
    Bones 
    has 
    gone 
    to sea 
    and 

    quit 
    his dockside 
    drinking 

    Check 
    it 
    out, 
    Verse 2
    check it 
    out, 
    check 
    it 
    out 

    And when 
    I'm 
    dead 
    who'll fly 

    the 
    White 
    Bird 
    home 

    I'm 
    not 
    the ancient 
    mariner 

    your children 
    know 

    And the 
    sea's 
    the field 
    these 

    old 
    jack 
    tars 
    have 
    sown 

    `Cause 
    Billy 
    Bones 
    just 
    wants 
    to know 
    who'll fly 

    the White 
    Bird 
    home 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    Oh 
    your 
    majesty, 

    your 
    majesty 


    I 









    heard 
    the boson 
    cry 

    Old 
    Billy 
    Bones 
    has 
    washed 
    ashore 

    Upon 
    a 
    foreign 
    tide

    • 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.”
