    Give 
    me some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    As 
    I 
    was 
    a 
    -walkin' 
    down 
    Paradise 
    Street 

    To 
    me, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    A 
    handsome 
    young 
    damsel 

    I 
    chanced 
    for 
    to 
    meet 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 

    the 
    man 
    down 

    She was 
    round 
    in 
    the 
    counter 

    and 
    bluff 
    in 
    the 
    bow 

    To 
    me, 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow the 
    man 
    down 

    So I 
    put on 
    old 
    speed 

    and called, 
    wait, 
    hold 
    up now. 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    I 
    hauled 
    out 
    my 
    flipper, 
    I 
    took her 
    in 
    tow. 

    To me, 
    way, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    And 
    yard 
    arm 
    to 
    yard 
    arm, 

    away 
    we 
    did 
    go. 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 

    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    Says 
    she 
    to 
    me, 

    will 
    you 
    stand 
    treat 
    to me? 

    Way, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    Delighted, 
    says Ivor, 

    a 
    charmer 
    so 
    sweet, 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 

    the 
    man 
    down. 

    She drank 
    down 
    a 
    pint 

    and 
    I 
    swallowed 
    a 
    quart, 

    To 
    me, 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    She 
    listed 
    to 
    starboard, 

    I 
    listed 
    to 
    port, 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    Was 
    up 
    in 
    her 
    quarter, 

    she 
    piped 
    me 
    a 
    bore, 

    To 
    me, 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    And 
    there 
    on 
    the 
    bed, 

    I 
    cut 
    loose 
    with 
    my 
    sword 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    I 
    ruffled 
    her 
    scuppers, 

    I 
    battered 
    her stern 

    To me, 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    And 
    down 
    in 
    her 
    galley, 

    I 
    was 
    done 
    to 
    a 
    turn 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    But 
    just 
    as 
    my 
    cutter 

    was 
    a 
    -forging 
    the 
    head 

    To me, 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    She 
    hollered, 
    my husband, 

    and she 
    jumped 
    out 
    of 
    bed. 

    Give 
    me some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    He 
    was seven 
    foot 
    tall 

    with 
    a 
    chest 
    like 
    a 
    horse. 

    Way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    And straight 
    from my 
    jawbone, 

    he 
    plotted 
    his 
    course. 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    He 
    battered 
    my 
    rudder, 

    he loosened 
    my 
    stage. 

    Way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down. 

    And 
    I 
    flew 
    down 
    the steps 

    like 
    a 
    ship 
    on 
    the 
    waves 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    Well, 
    I 
    hopped 
    on 
    a 
    packet 

    that 
    happened 
    along 

    Do 
    me 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    And 
    when I 
    woke 
    up, 

    I 
    was signed 
    for Hong 
    Kong 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down 

    So 
    young 
    men, 
    take 
    warning 
    before 
    I 
    belay 

    Do 
    me 
    way, 
    hey, 
    blow the 
    man 
    down 

    Don't 
    never 
    pay 
    to 
    what 
    pretty 
    gals 
    say 

    Give 
    me 
    some 
    time 
    to 
    blow 
    the 
    man 
    down

      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.
