  • Verse 1
    Now 

    gather 

    round 
    you 
    sailor 

    boys, and 
    listen to 
    my 
    plea 

    And when 
    you've heard my 

    tale you'll 
    pity me 

    For 
    was a 
    real 
    damned 
    fool 

    in the 
    port 
    of 
    Liverpool 

    The 
    first 
    time 
    that 
    I came 

    home 
    from 
    the sea 

    Verse 2
    I was 
    paid off 
    at the 
    Home, 

    from 
    voyage 
    to 
    Sierra 
    Le
    one 

    Two pounds 
    ten 
    and 

    sixpence 
    was 
    my pay 

    When 
    I drew 
    the 
    tin I grinned, 

    but 
    very soon 
    got skinned 

    By a girl by 
    the 
    name of Maggie 

    May 

    Verse 3
    Oh, Maggie, 
    Maggie 
    May, 

    they've 
    taken 
    you away 

    They've 
    sent 
    you to Van 

    Diemen's 
    cruel shore 

    For 
    you 
    robbed 
    so many 
    sailor, 

    and 
    skinned 
    so 
    many 
    whaler 

    And 
    you'll 
    never 
    shine 
    in Paradise 

    Street 
    no 
    more 

    I shan't 
    forget 
    the 
    Verse 4
    day 
    when 

    first 
    met 
    Maggie May 

    She 
    was cruising 
    up 
    and down on 

    Can
    ning Place 

    With a figure 
    so divine, 

    like 
    frigate 
    of 
    the 
    line 

    So, 
    being 
    sailor, 
    gave 
    chase 

    Oh, 
    Mag
    gie, 
    Maggie 
    Verse 5
    May, 

    they've 
    taken 
    you 
    away 

    They've sent 
    you to Van 

    Diemen's 
    cruel 
    shore 

    For you 
    robbed so 
    many 
    sailor, 

    and 
    skinned 
    so 
    many a whaler 

    And 
    you'll 
    never shine 

    in Paradise 
    Street 
    no 
    more 

    Next 
    day I 
    woke in 
    bed, 
    with a sore 
    Verse 6

    and 
    aching head 

    No shoes, 
    or 
    shirt, 
    or trousers 
    could I find 

    asked 
    her where 
    they were, and 
    she 
    answered, 

    "My 
    dear 
    sir, 

    They're down 
    in Kelly's knock- 

    shop, number 
    nine"

    they've 
    taken 
    you away 

    They've 
    sent you 
    to Van 

    Diemen's 
    cruel shore 

    For you 
    robbed so many 
    a sailor, 

    and 
    skinned so 
    many 
    a whaler 

    And 
    you'll never shine 
    in 

    Paradis

    Oh, 
    you thieving 
    Maggie May, you 

    robbed 
    me 
    of 
    my pay 

    When I slept 
    with 
    you last 
    night 
    ashore 

    And 
    the judge he guilty 
    found 
    her 
    of 

    robbing 
    homeward- 
    bounder 

    And 
    she'll 
    never 
    roam 
    down 

    Paradise 
    Street 
    no

    • 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.
