    Verse 1
    Living 
    on 
    the side 

    Of Primrose 
    Hill 

    Drinking 
    cans 
    of Tennants 

    Just 
    can't seem 
    to get my 
    fill 

    Got 
    a beat up 
    guitar 

    And a dirty 
    old 
    sleeping 
    bag 

    And this mangy 
    dog 

    Whose 
    tail 
    don't 
    wag 

    Sun's 
    been 
    shining 
    down 

    On 
    my 
    hillside 
    bed 

    That's 
    not 
    the 
    only 
    reason 

    My 
    face 
    is so 
    red 

    This 
    nasty 
    cut on 
    my 
    nose 

    Is 
    not from 
    no 
    fight 

    I just 
    fell 
    down 
    yesterday 

    Or 
    maybe 
    it was 
    last 
    night 

    And I 
    used 
    to sing 
    and play 

    Down 
    in the underground 

    But a few 
    years 
    back 

    They 
    started 
    cracking 
    down 

    Now 
    I'm living 
    on 
    the 
    side 

    Of Primrose 
    Hill 

    I'm no 
    tourist 
    attraction 

    Interlude 1
    But 
    I 
    give them 
    a 
    thrill 



    Verse 2
    Yeah I see 
    you 

    Riding 
    by 
    on your 
    flash 
    bicycle 

    Yeah they can 
    do you 

    for that 
    on 
    Primrose 
    Hill 

    A 
    pretty 
    young 
    mother 
    goes 
    by 

    She's 
    pushing 
    her pram 

    Her 
    little 
    baby 
    leans 
    out 

    Just to 
    see 
    what I 
    am 

    From 
    the 
    top 
    of the 
    hill 

    There's 
    a hell 
    of 
    a 
    view 

    Houses 
    of 
    Parliament 
    and 
    London 
    Zoo 

    Those 
    politicians 
    all 
    chatter 

    They 
    trumpet 
    and 
    roar 

    That must 
    be 
    what those 

    hyenas 
    all 

    Are laughing 
    for 

    When you 
    come 
    up to London 

    It 
    sure 
    is something 
    to see 

    It's 
    somewhere 
    to go 

    But 
    it's no 
    place 
    to 
    be 

    And there's 
    two things 

    Keeping 
    me from 
    going 
    'round 
    the bend 

    I 
    got 
    my music 

    And this 
    dog 
    for a 
    friend 

    Interlude 2


    'Cause life 
    gets 
    slip
    pery 
    Verse 3

    When 
    you're living 
    on 
    the side 

    Yeah 
    I 
    know I 
    should 
    quit 

    drinking 

    But I haven't 
    even tried 

    My 
    mutt's licking 
    my 
    fingers 

    And 
    I'm wetting 
    my 
    lips 

    I 
    got 
    a can 
    of 
    extra 
    strong 

    And 
    a bag 
    of chicken 
    and 
    chips 

    If 
    I had 
    a 
    little 
    money 

    I'd 
    get 
    a 
    few 
    thing
    s 

    Like 
    a bottle 
    of vodka 

    And a 
    pack 
    of new guitar 
    strings 

    I 
    guess 
    I 
    could die 
    here 

    On the 
    side 
    of this 
    hill 

    I'm 
    no 
    tourist 
    attraction 

    But 
    I'd give 
    them 
    a chill 

    And I'm 
    living 
    on the 
    side 

    Of Primrose 
    Hill 

    Drinking 
    cans 
    of Tennants 

    Just 
    can't 
    seem 
    to get 
    my 
    fill 

    Got 
    a beat 
    up 
    guitar 

    And 
    dirty 
    old 
    sleeping 
    bag 

    This 
    mangy 
    dog 

    Whose 
    tail 
    won't 
    wag

      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 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.
