    Verse 1
    On 
    Bona
    parte 
    he 
    com

    mended 
    his 
    troops 
    for 
    to 
    stand 

    And 
    he 
    leveled 
    his 
    cannon 

    all 
    over 
    the 
    land 

    He 
    leveled 
    his 
    cannon, 

    the 
    whole 
    victory 
    to 
    gain 

    An
    d 
    he 
    killed 
    my 
    light 
    horseman, 

    re
    turning 
    from 
    Spain 

    Broken 
    -hearted, 
    I 
    will 
    wander

    for 
    the 
    loss 
    of 
    my 
    lover 

    He's 
    my 
    bonnie 
    light 
    horse
    man, 

    in 
    the 
    wars 
    he 
    was 
    slain 

    If 
    you 
    saw 
    my 
    love 
    on 
    sentry, 

    on 
    a 
    cold 
    winter's 
    day 

    With 
    his 
    red 
    rosy 
    cheeks 

    and 
    his 
    colors 
    okay 

    I'll 
    mount 
    it 
    on 
    horseback, 

    the 
    whole 
    victory 
    to 
    gain 

    And 
    it's 
    all 
    over 
    the 
    battlefield, 

    my 
    love, 
    he did 
    range 
    broken 
    -hearted 

    I 
    will 
    won
    der 
    for 
    the 
    loss 
    of 
    my 
    lover 

    he 
    is 
    my 
    bonnie 
    light 
    horseman 

    in 
    the 
    wars 
    he 
    was 
    slain 

    Oh, 
    I 
    were 
    a 
    black 
    bird 

    and 
    had 
    wings 
    to 
    fly 

    I 
    would 
    fly 
    to 
    the 
    spot 

    where 
    my 
    true 
    love 
    did 
    lie 

    And 
    with 
    my 
    little 
    fluttering 
    wings 

    his 
    wounds 
    I 
    would 
    heal 

    And 
    it's 
    all 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    on 
    his 
    breast 
    I'd 
    remain 

    Broken 
    -hearted, 
    I 
    will 
    wander

    for 
    the 
    loss 
    of 
    my 
    lover 

    He's 
    my 
    bonnie 
    light 
    horse
    man 

    in 
    the 
    wars 
    he 
    would 
    slay 




    Oh, 
    the 
    dove 
    she 
    laments 
    for 

    her 
    mate 
    as 
    she 
    flies 

    Oh, 
    where, 
    tell 
    me, 
    where 
    is 
    my 
    true 
    love? 

    She 
    cries 

    Oh, 
    where 
    in 
    this 
    wild 
    world 

    is 
    there 
    one 
    to 
    com
    pare 

    with 
    my 
    bonnie 
    light 
    horseman 

    who's 
    slain 
    in 
    the 
    war 
    broken 
    hearted 

    I 
    will 
    wonder 
    for 
    the 
    loss 
    of 
    my 
    lover 

    he's 
    my 
    bonnie 
    light 
    horseman 

    in 
    the 
    wars 
    he 
    was 
    slain 

    Oh, 
    Bonaparte, 

    I 
    have 
    done 
    you 
    no 
    harm 

    So 
    why 
    tell 
    me 
    why 
    have 
    you 

    caused 
    this 
    alarm? 

    We 
    were 
    happy 
    together, 

    my 
    true 
    love 
    and 
    me 

    But 
    now 
    you 
    have 
    stretched 
    him 

    in 
    his 
    grave 
    over 
    the 
    sea 

    Broken 
    are 
    you, 
    dear, 
    I 
    won
    der, 

    for 
    the 
    loss 
    of 
    my 
    lover 

    He's 
    my 
    bonnie 
    white 
    horse
    man, 

    in 
    the 
    wars 
    he 
    was 
    slain 

    Bye -bye.

      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 🙂

      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.
