    • Verse 1
    If anyone here this 
    evening 

    were unfor
    tunate 
    enough 

    to have 
    to visit South 
    Africa today, 


    they would find in 
    the large cities like 

    Johannesburg, 

    small 
    boys in tattered clothing 

    stand
    ing on the street 
    corner
    s, 

    singing and dancing 

    and 
    playing 
    penny whistles. 

    Aesthetically, this is a 
    very attractive 

    thing to see 
    and to listen to. 

    so
    cially and 
    spiritually 

    it's rather 
    depressing 

    because 
    small 
    boys are there 

    for the 
    purpose of 
    begging 
    for 

    fa
    vors 

    from the more well -to 
    -do 

    cit
    izens 

    and the tourists 
    one 
    can also find 

    grown men 

    many of whom 
    have been 

    taken from their tribes 

    and put to 
    work in the mines. 


    When they get out they 
    come flooding 

    into the 
    cities looking for work 

    and 
    they band together 

    in 
    groups of 
    player
    s singer
    s and 
    dancers 

    and 
    they 
    compete 
    with the same small 
    boys 

    for 
    the same small 
    favors. 

    The 
    song of the 

    dance we're about 
    to do 

    illustrates 
    such a 
    scene 

    in a 
    South African 
    city. 

    It's 
    called the South African 
    miners 
    boot dance.

    • 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.”
