    Verse 1
    Down 
    the 
    way 
    where 
    the 

    night 
    are 
    gay 

    And 
    the sun 
    shines 
    dearly 

    on 
    the 
    mountain 
    top 

    I 
    took 
    a trip 
    on 
    a sailing 
    ship 

    And 
    when 
    I 
    reached 
    Jamaica 
    I 
    made 
    a stop 

    Verse 2
    But 
    I'm 
    sad

    my 
    way 

    Won't 
    be 
    back 
    for 
    many 
    a 
    day 

    My 
    heart

    my 
    head 
    is 
    turning 
    around

    to 
    leave 
    a 
    girl 
    in 
    Kingston

    girls 
    swing 
    to 
    and

    my 
    love too

    to 
    Mexico

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
