    Verse 1
    My 
    Johnny 
    was a 

    shoemaker, 

    how 
    dearly 
    he loved 
    me. 

    My 

    Johnny 
    was a 
    shoemaker
    , 

    but 
    now he's 
    gone to 
    sea. 

    With 
    nasty 
    targets 
    on 
    his 
    hands 

    He has 
    gone 
    across the 
    sea, 
    briny 
    sea 

    He's 
    gone 
    across the 
    briny 
    sea 

    His 
    jacket 
    was 
    a deep sky 
    blue 

    And 
    curly 
    was 
    his hair 

    His 
    jacket 
    was 
    a deep sky 
    blue 

    It 
    was, 
    I do declare 

    For 
    to 
    reap the 
    topsail 
    he 
    has 
    gone 

    And to 
    sail 
    across the 
    sea, 
    briny 
    sea 

    And 
    sail 
    across the 
    briny 
    sea 




    A 
    captain 
    he'll 
    be fighting 
    fine 

    With a 
    sword and 
    a spyglass 
    too 

    A 
    captain 
    he'll be 
    fighting 
    fine 

    With 
    a 
    brave and 
    a valiant 
    crew 

    And 
    when he 
    gets 
    a vessel 

    of 
    his own 

    He'll come 
    back 
    and marry 
    me, 

    marry 
    me 

    He'll 
    come 
    back 
    and 
    marry 
    me 

    My 

    Johnny 
    was 
    a shoemaker 

    And 
    nearly 
    he loved 
    me 

    My 

    Johnny 
    was a 
    shoemaker 

    But 
    now 
    he's gone to 
    sea 

    With 
    nasty 
    tart 
    to soil 
    his 
    hands 

    He's 
    gone 
    across the 
    sea 

    Briny 
    sea 

    He's 
    gone 
    across the 
    briny 
    sea

      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.
