    The 

    manager 

    is 
    waiting 
    to be 
    paid 

    Along 
    with 
    priests 
    and 

    deacons 
    of 
    his 
    court 

    A 
    quartermaster, 
    quite 
    a man, 

    a 
    mistress 
    of 
    the line 

    Has found 
    a last 
    cent 
    avenue 
    of pain 

    Verse 2

    A 
    Mardi 
    Gras 
    just passed 
    this 

    way 
    a while 
    ago 

    Making 
    hungry 
    people 
    of 
    us 
    all 

    Along 
    the Mississippi 
    you 
    can 

    hear 
    the fiddlers 
    play 

    Fandangos 
    and 
    boleros 
    to the lord 

    Verse 3

    Many 
    times, 
    many 
    tried, 

    Simple 
    stories 
    are 
    the be
    st 

    Keep 
    in 
    mind, 
    the wishful 
    kind, 

    Don't 
    want 
    to be 
    like 
    all 

    the rest. 


    Verse 4
    My uncle 
    was 
    a vicar 
    in 

    the big 
    parade 

    Selling 
    fountain 
    pens 
    that 
    never 
    write 

    San 
    Sebastian 
    gamblers 

    never 
    cheat 
    nor 
    lie 

    They 
    know 
    good 
    fences 

    make 
    good 
    neighbours 

    Verse 5
    I 
    wish 
    I knew 
    what 
    time 
    of 
    year 
    it 
    was 
    What 
    kind 
    of people 
    will be 
    there 
    When 
    gruesome 
    tales 
    of 
    two 
    cities 
    ran 
    Running 
    all the 
    way 
    Father might 
    have 
    heard 
    his pray
    ers 
    were 

    answered 
    Inhibitions 
    all 
    the way 
    from 
    home 
    Con
    sider 
    now, 

    consider 
    then 
    before 
    the deed 
    is done 
    The 
    blood 
    of consolation 
    runs 
    so 
    true 
    Many 
    times, 
    many 
    tried, 
    Simple 
    stories 
    are 
    the be
    st 
    Keep 
    in

    the 
    wishful 
    kind, 
    Don't 
    want 
    to be 
    like 
    all 
    the rest.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
