    Verse 1
    Two 
    little 
    boys 

    and 
    an 
    old 
    family 
    dog 

    By 
    the 
    banks 
    of 
    a 
    stream 
    sat 
    one 
    day 

    The 
    boys 
    decided 
    old 
    rover 
    must 
    die 

    A 
    nuisance 
    well 
    out 
    of 
    the 
    way 

    The 
    poor old 
    fellow 
    stood 

    close 
    by 
    their 
    side 

    His 
    fate 
    he 
    couldn't 
    quite 
    under
    stand 

    With 
    a 
    wag 
    of 
    his 
    tail 
    and 

    a 
    half 
    sobbing 
    wail 

    He 
    reached 
    out 
    and 
    licked 

    at 
    their 
    hands 

    Verse 2

    Remember 
    I'm 
    your 
    best 
    friend, 
    boys 

    Oh, 
    no 
    one 
    could 
    love 
    you 
    so 
    true 

    Though 
    you 
    may 
    beat 
    me 

    and 
    bang 
    me 
    today 

    To
    morrow 
    I'll 
    play 
    games 
    with 
    you 

    I 
    know 
    I 
    am 
    old 
    and 
    quite 
    in 
    the 
    way 

    But 
    life 
    to 
    me 
    still 
    holds 
    a charm 

    Well, 
    I've 
    only 
    one 
    favor 
    to 
    ask 
    of 
    you, 

    boys 

    Let 
    me 
    spend 
    my 
    last 
    days 

    Interlude 1
    on 
    the farm 


    Verse 3
    With 
    a 
    rope, 
    round 
    his 
    neck 

    they 
    were 
    ready 
    to 
    tie 

    His 
    plead
    ing 
    seemed 
    of 
    no 
    avail 

    Just 
    then 
    one 
    of 
    the 
    boys 
    slipped 

    and 
    fell 
    in 
    the stream 

    The 
    oth
    er 
    stood 
    by, 
    deadly 
    pale 

    A 
    loud 
    cry 
    for 
    help 
    and 
    old 
    rover 
    plunged 
    in 

    No 
    sight 
    of 
    old 
    age 
    or 
    delay 

    And 
    as 
    he 
    slowly 
    swam 

    back 
    to 
    the shore 

    The 
    waves 
    dashing 
    by 
    in 
    his 

    face 

    Verse 4

    (Remember I'm 
    your 
    best 
    friend, 

    boys) 

    (Oh, no 
    one 
    could 
    love 

    you 
    so 
    true) 

    Though 
    you 
    may 
    beat 
    me 

    and 
    bang 
    me 
    today 

    To
    morrow 
    I'll 
    play 
    games 
    with 
    you 

    I 
    know 
    I 
    am 
    old 
    and 
    quite 
    in 
    the way 

    But 
    life 
    to 
    me 
    still 
    holds 
    a charm 

    Well, 
    I've 
    only 
    one 
    favor 

    to

    of 
    you, 
    boys 

    Let 
    me 
    spend 
    my 
    last 
    days 
    on 
    the farm

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
