The Garland Frigate and Petrite
A

She lay in Plymouth Sound Blue

Peter at her foremost head,
G
A

for we were outward bound
G
A

We were waiting there for orders
G
A

to take us far from home

Our orders came for Rio
G
A
G
A

And thence around Cape Horn
D

Next day we waved our anchor boys
G
A

And we waved goodbye all round
G
A

And some of us we knew
G
D
G
A

would never haught y Plymouth sound
G
A

But still our hearts were light and gay,
G
D
A

and when all was taut and snug
D

We foraged down the bumble grove
G
A
D
G

And each man filled his mug
A
D

We drink success to Plymouth girls
G
A

To Anne and Paul and Sue

And arguing all their various charms,
G
D
A

struck up a fight or two.

Then up it slammed in Johnny Hunk,
G
D
A

a clap that made him snort.
G

And to this day his nose has got

A heavy list to port

When we arrived in Rio
D
A
G
A

We prepared for heavy gales

We sent off all our rigging boys
G
A

And we bent on all new sails

From ship to ship they cheered us
G
A

As we did sail along
G

And they wished us pleasant weather
D
G

G
A

In rounding of Cape Horn
D

While beating off McAllen Street,
G
A

it blew its seating part

While short we sailed to Galentod,
G
A

Held from the top still yond,

By angry seas the ropes we threw,
G
D
G
A

From their poor hands were torn,
G

We were forced to leave them to the sharks
D
G
A
D
G
A

that prowled around Cape Horn
D

When we got burned, the horny boys,
A
G
A

We had some glorious days.

And very soon Achilles dropped
G
A

in Valparaiso Bay

The pretty girls came down in drops,
G
A

I solemnly do swear

They're far before they'd
G

live with ghosts
D
G
A
D
G
A

With their dark and curvy hair
D

They'll love a jolly sailor
A
G
A

When he spends his money free

They'll laugh and sing and merry,

merry be
G
A

And they'll have a jovial spree
D

And when your money is all gone
A
G
A

They won't arm you in pose
G

They are not like a pimp of girls
D
G

That'll pawn and sell your
A
D
G
A

clothes

Farewell to Valparaiso,
D
A
G
A

an d farewell for a while

Likewise to all the Spanish girls
G
A

Along the coast of Choy

And if ever a gift to be paid of
G
A

I said, I'll sing this song
G

God bless they lovely Spanish girls

We left around Cape Horn

  • 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

    Rose the Black Cat

    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 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    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!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    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.

    Caleb Schafli

    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.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
