Any surface that was equal
to the hot asphalt
Verse 4
Em
The other night a copper comes and he says to me,
D
McGuire
Em
Would you kindly let me light me pipe
D
down at your boiler fire?
Em
And he planks himself right down in front,
D
with hobnails up, till late
Em
And says I, me decent man,
you'd better go and find your bait
G
He ups and yells, I'm
Verse 5
down on you,
I'm up to all yer pranks
Don't I know you for a traitor

That I knocked him into the
boiler full of hot asphalt

We quickly dragged him out again

and we threw him in the tub
Em
And with soap and warm water
D
we began to rub and scrub
Em
But devil the thing,
D
it hardened and it turned him hard as stone
Em
And with every other rub,
sure you could hear the copper groan
G
I'm thinking, says O'Reilly,
Verse 8
G
that he's lookin' like old Nick
And burn me if I am not inclined
D
to claim him with me pick

Now, says I,

it would be easier to boil him till he melts

And to stir him nice and
easy in the hot asphalt
G
Well, we laid it in a

Your shoemakers and your tailors

As a monument to the Irish,

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
