    Verse 1
    Come 
    and 
    listen 
    you 
    fellows, 

    young 
    and 
    so 
    fine, 

    And seek 
    not 
    your 
    fortune 
    in 
    the 
    dark, 

    dreary 
    mines. 

    It will 
    form 
    as 
    habit 
    and 

    seep 
    in 
    your 
    soul, 

    'Till 
    the stream 
    of 
    your 
    blood 
    is 

    as 
    black 
    as 
    the coal. 

    Verse 2

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    dungeon 

    and 
    damp 
    as 
    the 
    dew, 

    Where 
    danger 
    is 
    double 
    and 

    pleasures 
    are 
    few, 

    Where 
    the 
    rain 
    never 
    falls 
    and 

    the sun 
    never 
    shines 

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    a dungeon 
    way 

    down 
    in 
    the 
    mines. 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    It's 
    a- many 
    a man 
    I have 

    known 
    in 
    my 
    day, 

    Who 
    lived 
    just 
    to 
    labor 
    his 

    whole 
    life 
    away. 

    Like 
    a fiend 
    with his 
    dope 
    and a 

    drunkard 
    his 
    wine, 

    A man 
    will have 
    lust 
    for 
    the 

    lure 
    of 
    the mines. 

    Verse 4

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    dungeon 
    and 

    damp 
    as 
    the dew, 

    Where danger 
    is 
    double 
    and 

    pleasures 
    are 
    few, 

    Where 
    the rain 
    never 
    falls 
    and 

    the sun 
    never 
    shines 

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    dungeon 

    way 
    down 
    in 
    the mines. 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 5
    midnight, 
    or 
    the morning, 

    or 
    the 
    middle 
    of 
    the 
    day 

    It's 
    the same 
    to 
    the 
    miner 

    who 
    labors 
    away 

    Where 
    the demons 
    of 
    death 

    often 
    come 
    by 
    sur
    prise 

    One 
    fall 
    of 
    the 
    slate 
    and you're 
    buried 
    alive 

    Verse 6
    And 
    it's 
    dark 
    as 
    a dungeon 

    and 
    damp 
    as 
    the dew, 

    Where 
    danger 
    is 
    double 
    and 

    pleasures 
    are 
    few, 

    Where 
    the rain 
    never 
    falls 
    and 

    the sun 
    never 
    shines 

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    dungeon 

    way 
    down 
    in 
    the mines. 

    Interlude 3

    Verse 7
    hope 
    when I'm 
    gone 
    and 

    the 
    ages 
    shall 
    roll, 

    My body 
    will 
    black
    en 

    and 
    turn 
    into 
    coal. 

    Then 
    I'll 
    look 
    from 
    the door 

    of 
    my 
    heavenly 
    home, 

    And 
    pity 
    the miner 
    a- 
    dig

    gin' 
    my 
    bones. 

    Verse 8

    Where 
    it's 
    dark 
    as 
    dungeon 

    and 
    damp 
    as 
    the 
    dew, 

    Where 
    danger 
    is 
    double 
    and 

    pleasures 
    are 
    few, 

    Where 
    the 
    rain 
    never 
    falls 
    and 

    the sun 
    never 
    shines 

    And it's 
    dark 
    as 
    a dungeon 
    way 
    down 
    in 
    the 
    mines.

    • 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.
