    O 
    the 
    January 
    man, he 

    walk
    s the road 

    In woollen 
    coat and 

    boots of leather. 

    The February 
    man 
    still 
    shakes the 
    snow 

    From 
    off his hair 
    and 
    blows his 
    hands. 

    Oh, 
    the man of March, 
    he sees 
    the 
    spring 

    And 
    won
    ders what 
    the year will 
    bring

    And 
    hopes for better 
    weather 

    Through 
    April 
    rain, 
    the 
    man goes 
    down 

    To 
    watch the birds 
    come in 

    to 
    share the 
    summer
    . 

    The 
    man of May 
    stand
    s very 
    still, 

    Watching 
    the children 
    dance 

    away 
    the day. 

    In 
    June the 
    man inside 
    the 
    man 
    is young, 


    And wants to lend 
    a 
    hand, 

    An
    d grins 
    at each new 
    -comer 

    And 
    in 
    July, 
    the 
    man in cotton 
    shirt 

    He 
    sits 
    and thinks on 
    being idle 

    The 
    August 
    man in 
    the thousands 

    Takes the 
    road to 
    watch the sea 

    and find 
    the 
    sun
    . 

    September 
    man 
    is 
    standing near 

    To saddle 
    up and lead 
    the 
    year 

    And 
    au
    tumn is his 
    bridal. 

    An
    d the 
    man of new 
    October 

    Takes the 
    reins 

    And 
    early frost 
    is 
    on his shoulder

    . 

    The poor 
    November 
    man 
    sees 

    fire 
    an
    d rain, 

    And snow 
    and 
    mist and 
    winter 
    gale. 

    December 
    man looks 
    through the 
    snow 

    To 
    let 
    elev
    en brothers 
    know 

    They're 
    all 
    a 
    little older 

    And 
    the January 
    man 
    comes round 
    again 

    In 
    woolen coat 
    and boots 
    of leather 

    To 
    take another turn 

    and walk 
    along 

    Along the icy 
    road 
    he 
    knows so 
    well 

    Oh, 
    the Janu
    ary man 
    is 
    here 

    For starting 
    each and every 
    year 

    Along 
    the road 
    forever

      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.
