Verse 1
G
I remember a long
time ago when I was young,
they used to be great bands
of tinkers
or gypsies would come through our place
and it always seemed to me
the most romantic possible
kind of a life.
You know the caravans,
or the caravans
with the horses heads painted on the side,
and the old characters leaning over the
half door of it with the pipe,
and a clatter of dogs
running along under the wagons.
Fifteen or twenty piebald ponies behind,
you know.
C
G
A friend of ours wrote a song about it,
the passing of the romantic age
of the travelling people.
It's called I'm a Freeborn Man
F
G
of the Travelling People.
I'm a freeborn man
C
D
of the travelling people.
Got no fixed abode
G
with the nomads I have wondered.

Country lanes and byways

Oh, we knew the woods

Those were good old days for a rover

There was open ground

where a man could linger
For a week or two per time
G
was not our master

Then away you jog,
G
C
row in your horse and dog
G

And nice and easy,
F
G
no need to go fasting
Now I've known life hard
C

and I've known it easy
And I've cursed the life
G
when winter days were darning
D
But I've laughed and sung
G

through the whole night long

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.”
