    Verse 1
    Down 
    the 
    way 
    where 
    the 
    nights 
    are 

    gay 
    and 
    the 
    sun 
    shines 
    daily 
    on 
    the 
    mountain 
    top 

    took 
    trip 
    on 
    sailing 
    ship 

    and 
    when 
    reached 

    Jamaica 

    made 
    stop, 
    but 
    I'm 
    sad 
    to 

    say 
    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way 

    Won't 
    be 
    back 
    for 
    many 
    day 

    My 
    heart 
    is 
    down, 
    my 
    head 
    is 
    turning 
    around 

    had 
    to 
    leave 
    little 
    girl 
    in 

    Kingston 
    town 

    Down 
    at 
    the 
    market 
    you 
    can 
    hear 

    Ladies 
    cry 
    out 
    while 
    on 
    their 

    head
    s they 
    bear 

    Ackie 
    rice, 
    salt fish 
    are 
    nice 

    And 
    the 
    rum 
    is 
    fine 
    any 
    time 
    of 
    year 

    But 
    I'm 
    sad 
    to 
    say 
    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way 

    Won't 
    be 
    back 
    for 
    many 
    day 

    My 
    heart 
    is 
    down, 

    my 
    head 
    is 
    turning 
    around 
    had 
    to 
    leave 
    little 
    girl 
    in 

    Kingston 
    town 

    must 
    declare 
    my 
    heart 
    is 
    there, 

    though 
    I've 
    been 
    from 

    Maine 
    to 

    Mexico. 

    But 
    I'm 
    sad 
    to 
    say 
    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way, 

    won't 
    be 
    back 
    for 
    many 
    day. 

    My 
    heart 
    is 
    down, 
    my 
    head 
    is 
    turning 
    around, 

    had 
    to 
    leave 
    little 
    girl 

    Down 
    the 
    way 
    where 
    the 
    nights 
    are 
    gay 

    And 
    the 
    sun 
    shines 
    daily 
    on 
    the 
    mountaintop 

    took 
    trip 
    on 
    sailing 
    ship 

    And 
    when 
    reached 

    Jamaica 

    made 
    stop 

    But 
    I'm 
    sad 
    to 
    say 
    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    way 

    Won't 
    be 
    back 
    for 
    many 
    day. 

    My 
    heart 
    is 
    down, 

    my 
    head 
    is 
    turning 
    around. 
    have 
    to 
    leave 
    little 
    girl 
    in 

    Kingston 
    town. 

    Sad

    my 
    way. 

    Won't

    my head 
    is 
    turning

    have 
    to 
    leave

    • 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.
