    Come 
    all 
    you 
    weary 
    travellers 

    Who's 
    out 
    of 
    work, 
    just 
    mind 

    If 
    you 
    take 
    trip 
    to 
    Bongar
    ee 

    It's 
    plenty 
    there 
    you'll 
    find 

    Take 
    trial 
    with 
    the 
    cocky 

    You 
    can 
    take 
    it 
    straight 
    from 
    me 

    You'll 
    very 
    surely 
    rue 
    the day 

    you 
    go 
    to 
    Bungary 

    Well, 
    how 
    came 
    this 
    weary 
    way, 

    I'm 
    eased 
    to 
    let 
    you 
    know 

    Been 
    out 
    of 
    em
    ployment, 

    didn't 
    know 
    where 
    to 
    go 

    went 
    to 
    the 
    register 
    office, 

    and 
    there 
    did 
    agree 

    To 
    take 
    job 
    at 
    Clear 
    and 
    Far, 

    cuckie 
    in 
    Bungaree 

    His 
    homestead 
    was 
    of 
    surface 
    mud, 

    and his 
    roof 
    mouldy 
    thatch 

    The 
    doors 
    and 
    windows 
    hung 
    by 
    nail, 

    with 
    never 
    bolt 
    or 
    catch. 

    The 
    chick
    ens 
    ran 
    over 
    the 
    table, 

    such 
    sight 
    you 
    never 
    did 
    see, 

    When 
    laid 
    an 
    egg 
    in 
    the 
    old 
    tin 
    plate 

    of 
    the 
    cocky 
    from 
    Bungar
    ee. 

    And 
    on 
    the 
    very 
    first 
    morning, 

    it 
    was 
    the 
    usual 
    go. 

    He 
    battled 
    the 
    plate 
    for 
    breakfast 

    before 
    the 
    cogs 
    did 
    grow. 

    The 
    stars 
    were 
    shining 
    gloriously, 

    the moon 
    was 
    high, 
    you see. 

    thought 
    before 
    the 
    sun 
    would 
    rise 

    I'd 
    die 
    in 
    Bungaree 

    Well, 
    when 
    came 
    home 
    for 
    supper 

    It 
    was 
    about 
    half 
    -past 
    nine 

    And 
    when 
    had 
    it 
    at 

    Well, 
    reckoned 
    it was 
    bedtime 

    But 
    the 
    cock
    y he 
    came 
    over 
    to 
    me 

    and 
    he 
    said 
    with 
    merry 
    laugh 

    want 
    you 
    now 
    for 
    an 
    hour 
    or 
    two 

    to 
    cut 
    bit
    ter 
    chaff 

    And 
    when 
    had 
    it 
    finished 

    I'd 
    to 
    nurse 
    the 
    youngest 
    child 

    Whenever 
    said 
    jok
    ing 
    word 

    the 
    missus 
    she 
    would 
    smile 

    The 
    old 
    fella 
    got 
    jealous, 

    looked 
    like 
    he'd 
    murder 
    me 

    And 
    there 
    he 
    sat 
    an
    whipped 
    the 
    cat 

    cocky 
    bungary 

    Well, 
    when 
    had 
    my first 
    week 
    done, 

    reckon 
    I'd 
    had 
    enough 

    walked 
    up 
    to 
    the 
    cocky 

    and 
    asked 
    him 
    for 
    my 
    stuff 

    went 
    down 
    into 
    Ballarat, 

    and 
    it 
    didn't 
    last 
    me 
    long. 

    went 
    straight 
    into 
    Sayers 
    Hotel 

    and 
    blew 
    my 
    one 
    pound 
    one. 

    And 
    now 
    my 
    job 
    is 
    over, 

    and 
    I'm 
    at 
    liberty. 

    I'll 
    never 
    forget 
    the 
    day 
    met 

    McGuck
    ie 
    from 
    Bungaree

    • 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.
