Image of two
hollow ranches for courting,
Am
C

C
G
A word of advice I will give unto ye,
C
Proceed to banteer to the athletic sports,
And hand in your names to
G
the club committee,
C
And never commence any sketch
D
on your programme,
G
C
Till the carriage you see
Am
D
G
flying over the hill,
C
Ride on through the valleys
and lands of Kilcarnie
With our own darling sportsman,
the bald Teddy Quill
For a -ramblin', for rovin',
for football or courtin'
D
Or drinkin' black porter as fast as you feel
G
C
In all your days rovin'
you'll find I'm so jovial
As a muscary sportsman,
the bald Teddy Quill
At the great hurlin' match
between Cork and Tipperary,
Am
It was played in the park
C
D

on the banks of the Lee.
G
C
Our own darlin' lads
were afraid of bein' bitten,
So they sent for Bald Teddy
to ballin' agree.
He hurled that ball right
D
and left in their faces,
G
C
And showed the Tipperary
Am
D
men action and skill.
G
C
If he touched on his lines,
he would certainly brain them,
Am
And the papers were full
C
G
C
of the praise of Ted Quill.
For ramblin', for robin',
for football or courtin'
Or drinkin' black porter
D
as fast as you'll fill
G
C
In all your days robin'
you'll find them so jovial
As a muscarise horseman about Petty Quill
At the Cork Exhibition
there was a fair lady
Am
Whose fortune exceeded
C
G
a million or more
C
But a bad constitution
had ruined her completely
Am
C
Am
C
And medical treatment had
failed o 'er and o 'er
G
C
Our mother says she sure
G
I know what will ease me
C
And cure this disease which
D
will certainly kill
G
C
Give over your doctors and
medical treatment
I'd rather one squeeze out
of bowl Teddy Quill
G
C
For ramblin', for rovin',
for football or courtin'
Or drinkin' black porter
D
as fast as you feel
G
C
C
In all your days rovin'
you'll find none so jovial
As a muscary sportsman,
C
the Bobble Teddy Quill

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

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
