    • Verse 1
    You 
    gentlemen 

    can watch 

    while I'm scrubbing 
    the floors, 


    and I'm scrubbing 
    the floors 


    while you're gawking. 

    And maybe 
    once you tip 
    me 

    and it makes 
    you feel swell, 

    on a 
    ratty waterfront 
    in a ratty 

    old hotel. 

    And you never 
    guess to who 
    you're talking, 


    you never guess 
    to who 

    you're talking. 

    Suddenly 
    one night 

    there's 
    a scream 
    in the 
    night, 

    and 
    you wonder 

    what could that 
    have been. 

    And 
    you 
    see me 
    kind 
    of grinning 


    while I'm scrubbing, 

    an
    d you wonder 

    what 
    she got to 
    grin. 

    And 
    a ship, 
    a black 
    freighter, 

    with 
    a skull 
    on its 
    masthead, 

    will 
    be 
    com
    ing in
    . 

    You 
    gen
    tlemen can 
    say, 

    hey 
    girl, finish 
    the floors, 

    get upstairs, 
    make the 
    beds, 

    earn your 
    keep here. 

    You 
    toss me 
    your 
    tips 

    and 
    look out at 
    the 
    shifts, 

    but I'm counting 
    your heads 

    while 
    I make up 
    the beds, 

    cause 
    there's nobody 

    gonna sleep 
    here. 

    Tonight, 
    none of you 
    will sleep 
    here. 

    Then 
    that night, 

    there's a bang 
    in the night, 

    and you yell, 

    who's there 
    kicking up a row? 

    And 
    you see 
    me kinda 

    starin' 
    out the window 

    And 
    you 
    say, 

    what's 
    she got to stare 
    at 
    now? 

    And 
    the ship, 
    the black 
    freighter 

    Turns 
    around 
    in the harbor 

    Shootin' 
    guns 
    from the 
    bow 


    Then 
    you gentlemen 

    can wipe off 

    that laugh from 
    your face 

    Every 
    building 
    in 
    town is 
    a 
    flat one 

    Your 
    whole stinkin' 
    place will 

    be 
    down to 
    the 
    ground 

    Only 
    this cheap 
    hotel's 
    there 

    and up seven 
    sun 

    And you 
    yell, why 
    do 

    they spare 
    that one? 

    And you 
    say, why do 
    they spare 
    that one? 

    All the 
    night 
    through with 

    the 
    noise and 
    to -do 

    You 
    wonder who's 

    the person lives 
    up there 

    Then 
    you see 
    me stepping 
    out 

    in
    to the 
    morn
    ing 

    Looking 
    nice 
    with 
    a ribbon 
    in my 
    hair 

    And 
    the ship, 
    the Black 
    Freighter 

    Runs 
    the 
    flag up 
    its masthead 

    An
    d the cheer
    ing's 
    there 

    By 
    noontime 
    the dark is 
    all swarming 

    with 
    men coming 
    off of that 

    ghostly 
    freight
    er. 

    They're 
    moving in 
    the shadows 

    where 
    no one 
    can see 

    and they're 
    chaining up 
    people 

    and bring
    ing them to 
    me, asking 
    me, 

    kill 
    them now 
    or later. 

    Asking 
    me, 
    kill them now 
    or 
    later. 

    Noon 
    by 
    the 
    clock, 

    and so 
    still 
    on 
    the dock, 

    you can 
    hear 
    a fog

    horn miles 
    away. 

    In that 
    quiet 
    of death, 
    I'll say, 
    right 
    now. 

    An
    d they 
    pile 
    up the bodies, 

    I'll 
    say, 
    That'll earn 
    ya. 

    Then 
    the 
    ship, 
    the black 
    freighter, 

    Disap
    pears 
    out 
    to sea, 

    An
    d 
    on 
    it 
    is 
    a me.

      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 🙂

      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.
