  • Verse 1
    Dear dirty 
    London 
    in 
    the 
    pouring 
    rain 

    wish 
    to 
    God 
    I was 
    back 

    on the sea 
    again 

    Though 
    that 
    belongs 
    to the 

    world 
    of 
    never 
    will 
    be 

    There 
    was never 
    a wilder 

    bastard 
    than me 
    on 
    the 
    sea 

    could 
    fuck 
    all 
    the whores 

    in dam
    nation 
    me 
    boys 

    Though 
    they wriggled 
    and 
    hollered 

    and 
    made 
    a great 
    noise 

    Then 
    I'd drink 
    till I 
    stank 

    and then 
    drink 
    plenty 
    more 

    And 
    won't go 
    down 
    to the 
    sea 
    any 
    more 

    But 
    if I had ten 
    pounds 
    then 
    I'd 

    raise 
    a loud 
    cheer 

    And I'd 
    toast 
    all me 
    neighbours 

    both 
    distant 
    an
    d dear 

    And I'd 
    shoot 
    back great 
    belly-crippling 

    buckets 
    buckets 
    of 
    beer 

    And a 
    pox 
    and a 
    curse 
    on the 

    people 
    round 
    here 

    Wouldn't 
    give you 
    me the 
    price 

    of a 
    half 
    pint of 
    beer 

    Wouldn't 
    give 
    you me the 

    price 
    of a 
    cup 
    of good 
    cheer 

    pox 
    and a 
    curse 
    on 
    the people 
    round 
    here 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 2
    man's 
    ambition 
    must 

    indeed 
    be 
    small 

    To write 
    his 
    name 
    upon 
    shithouse wall 

    But 
    be
    fore 
    die 
    I'll 
    add 

    my 
    regal 
    scrawl 

    To show 
    the 
    world 
    I'm 
    left 

    with sweet 
    fuck 
    all 

    And 
    when 
    all 
    of us 
    bold 

    shithouse poets 
    do die 

    monument 
    grand 
    they will 

    raise 
    to the 
    sky 

    A monument 
    made 
    just to 
    mark 
    our great 
    wit 

    monument 
    of solid 
    shit 
    now 
    me boys 

    I met 
    with Bill 
    James 
    we 
    fought 
    over 
    crusts 

    called 
    him 
    a whore 
    and he 

    booted 
    me 
    crotch 

    Then we 
    shared 
    out the 
    jack 

    and we 
    thought 
    it a 
    treat 

    The 
    compliments 
    pass 
    when 

    the quality 
    meet 

    The com
    pliments 
    pass 

    when the 
    quality 
    meet 

    The 
    com
    pliments 
    pass 

    when the 
    quality 
    meet 

    The 
    com
    pliments 
    pass 
    when the 
    quality 
    meet

    • 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.
