In a neat little town they call Belfast,
C

Apprentice to trade I was bound,
G

And many an hour's sweet happiness
D
Have I spent in that neat little town.
G

A sad misfortune came over me
G

D
Which caused me to stray from the land
G
Far away from me friends
Em
and relations
D
G
Betrayed by the black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
C
D
I thought her the queen of the land
G
Em
And her hair it hung over her shoulders
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
C
I took a stroll down Broadway
G
C
D
Meaning not long for to stay
G
When who should I meet
Em
But this pretty fair maid
D
G
Comes a -trippin' along the highway
C
G
She was both fair and handsome
C

Her neck it was just like a swan's
G
Em
And her hair it hung over her shoulder
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
C

Her eyes they shone like diamonds
C

I thought her the queen of the land
G
Em
And her hair hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band
G
C
G
I took a stroll with this fair maid
C
D
And a gentleman passing us by
G
Well I knew that she meant
Em
the do ing of him
D
G
By the look in her roguish black eye
A gold watch she took from his pocket
C
D
And placed it right in to my hand
G
D
Em
And the very first thing that I said was
D
G
Bad luck to the black velvet band
C

Her eyes they shone like diamonds
C

I thought her the queen of the land
G
Em
And her hair hung over her shoulders
D

Before the judge and the jury,
C

next morning I had to appear

And the judge, he says to me,

G
We'll give you seven
years' penal servitude
C

To be spent far away from the land
G
Far away from your friends
Em
and companions
D

Betrayed by the black velvet band

Her eyes they shone like diamonds

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
