    a song 
    to sing, 

    O!

    song, 
    O) 

    It is sung to 
    the knell 
    of a 

    church- yard 
    bell 

    And a 
    doleful 
    dirge ding- 
    dong 

    It's a 
    song 
    of a popinjay 
    bravely 
    born 

    Who 
    turned 
    up his noble 
    nose with 
    scorn 

    At the 
    humble 
    merry maid 
    peerly proud

    - a- day- 
    de

    love 
    of a 

    lady.

    I have 
    a song to 
    sing, O! 

    (I have 
    a song 
    to sing) 

    I have 
    a song to 
    sing- 
    o! 

    It 
    is sung with 
    a sigh and 
    tear in 
    Verse 8
    the eye for 

    it 
    tells 
    of a righted 
    wrong- 

    It's a 
    song 
    of the merry maid 
    once so 
    gay 

    Who 
    turned 
    on her heel 

    and 
    tripped 
    away 

    From the 
    peacock 
    popinjay 
    bravely 
    born 

    who 
    turned 
    up his noble 
    nose with 
    scorn 

    At the 
    humble 
    heart that 
    he 
    did not 
    prize 

    So she 
    begged 
    on her knees with 

    downcast 
    eyes 

    For the 
    love 
    of the merry man 

    moping 
    mum 

    Whose 
    soul was 
    sad 
    and whose 

    glance was 
    glum 

    Who

    of a 
    lady.

    di, 
    hey-

    - a- day- 
    de, 

    His pains were

    he lived 
    in the 
    love of 
    lady.

    • 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.
