Erie canal chords by 
Burl Ives

Verse 1
G
F#
We were forty miles from Albany,
G
F#
forget it I nev er shall
G
F#
What a terrible storm we had
G
one night on the Erie Canal
For the Erie was a -risin',
the gin was a -gettin' low
And I scarcely think we'll get a drink
till we get to Buffalo
Till we get to Buffalo
Our captain, he come up on deck
F#
with a spyglass in his hand
G
F#
G
And the fog, it was so tarnel -thick
that he couldn't spy the land
Well, the Uriah was a -risin',
the gin was a -gettin' low
And I scarcely think we'll get a drink
F#
G
till we get to Buffalo,
till we get to Buffalo
F#
Our cook, she was a grand old gal,
G
she had a ragged dress
F#
We heisted her upon a pole
as a signal of distress
G
F#
G
Oh, Uriah was a -risin',
F#
G
the gin was a -gettin' low,
D
G
And I scarcely think we'll get a drink
F#
G
till we get to Buffalo,
till we get to Buffalo.
The captain, got married,
and the cook, she went to jail,
F#
And I'm the only son of a gun
that's left to tell the tale.
G
Oh, the year I was a -risin',
the gin was a -gettin' low
F#
And I scarcely think we'll get a drink
G
till we get to Buffalo,
till we get to Buffalo

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
