    Look 
    here 
    comes 
    a northern 
    cowboy 

    He 
    just 
    rode 
    in 
    from 
    Aberdeen 

    He's 
    got 
    money 
    in 
    his 
    pockets 

    And 
    blisters 
    like 
    you've 

    never 
    ever 
    seen 

    Don't 
    let 
    him 
    fool 
    you 
    with 
    the 
    stories 

    Of 
    all 
    the money 
    he 
    has 
    made 

    I've 
    been 
    looking 
    along 

    the north- 
    east 
    coastline 

    And 
    those 
    cowboys 
    have 

    already 
    dug 
    its 
    grave 

    Verse 2
    Look 
    here 
    comes 
    northern 
    cowboy 

    He 
    just 
    rode 
    in 
    from Aberdeen 

    He's 
    got 
    money 
    in his 
    pockets 

    And 
    blisters 
    like 
    you've

    ever seen 

    Don't 
    let him 
    fool 
    you with 
    the 
    stor
    ies 

    Of 
    all 
    the money 
    he 
    has made 

    I've 
    been 
    looking 
    along 

    the north- 
    east 
    coastline 

    And 
    those cowboys 
    have 

    already

    grave 

    Verse 3
    There 
    was 
    time 
    when 
    we 
    were 
    happy 

    With 
    the simple 
    pleasures 

    that 
    we 
    knew 

    And 
    then 
    one 
    day 
    it 
    started 
    raining 

    And 
    a very 
    ugly 
    storm 
    began 
    to 
    brew 

    It 
    wasn't 
    long 
    before 
    we 
    noticed 

    That 
    the people 
    had 
    a fever 

    in 
    their 
    eyes 

    They were 
    taking 
    all 
    the 
    things 

    they'd 
    been 
    pre
    serving 

    And 
    going 
    out 
    and 
    throwing 
    them 

    up 
    in
    to 
    the skies 

    Verse 4

    Look 
    here 
    comes 
    a northern 
    cowboy 

    He 
    just 
    rode in 
    from Ab
    erdeen 

    He's 
    got 
    money 
    in 
    his 
    pockets 

    And 
    blisters 
    like 
    you've 
    never 
    ever 
    seen 

    Don't 
    let 
    him 
    fool 
    you with 
    the 
    stories 

    Of 
    all

    has 
    made 

    I've been 
    looking

    the north- 
    east 
    coastline 

    And those 
    cowboys 
    have 
    already 

    Interlude 1
    dug 
    its 
    grave 


    Once 
    the money

    ted 
    moving 
    Verse 5

    The 
    fever 
    spread 
    from door 

    to door 

    And all 
    the 
    young girls 

    started 
    selling 

    Something 
    they 
    had 
    never 
    sold 
    before 

    The 
    people 
    spun 
    around 
    in 
    circles 

    Confusion 
    cluttering 
    their 

    minds 

    Their lives 
    were 
    being 
    drawn 
    from 
    them 

    By 
    bastards 
    of 
    a hundred 

    dif
    ferent 
    kinds 

    Verse 6
    Look 
    here 
    comes 
    a northern 
    cowboy 

    He 
    just 
    rode in 
    from Aber
    deen 

    He's 
    got 
    money 
    in 
    his 
    pockets 

    And 
    blisters 
    like 
    you've 
    never 
    ever 
    seen 

    Don't 
    let him 
    fool 
    you with 

    the 
    stories 

    Of all 
    the 
    money 
    he 
    has 
    made 

    I've been 
    looking

    Interlude 2

    Verse 7
    So 
    come all 
    ye northern 
    cowboys 

    Get back 
    down here 
    upon 
    the 
    farm 

    Leave 
    the salt 
    wind 
    to 
    the sailors 

    Leave 
    the North 
    Sea 
    to 
    the storm 

    And 
    one day 
    when 
    it's all 
    over 

    And 
    you're 
    hanging 
    up your 

    saddles 
    and 
    your guns 

    You'll 
    look around 
    this oil- 

    stained 
    country 

    And 
    you'll 
    wish 
    to 
    Christ 
    it never 
    had 
    begun

      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

      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 🙂

      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 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.

      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.
