Verse 1
D

A man once was happy,

but now he's forlorn
D
G

Like an old coat that is tattered and torn

Left in this wide world
C
A

to weep and to mourn
D
G

Betrayed by a maid in her teens
Em

Oh, this maid that he loved,

she was handsome
B

And he tried all he knew how to please
Em

But he never could please

her one quarter
A
D

So well as the man on the flying trapeze I

My actions are graceful,
C
Am

O girls, I do please,
D
G

And as love I paralyneth away.
Em

I play with the mist like the

cat with the mouse,
B

My eyes would undress every maid in the house,

Em

Perhaps I am better described as a louse,
A
D

but still people come just the same.
Em

I smiled from the bar on the people below,
A
B

and one night I smiled on his love.
Em

As she blew me a kiss, and she hollered,

Bravo!
A

As I hung by the bar from above.
D

I float through the air with the greatest of ease,

Some months after that he came into a hall
B

To a surprise he found there on the wall
Em

A bill of red letters which did his heart gall
A
D

But she was appearing with me
Em

I taught her gymnastics and dressed her in
B

tights to help me live at my ease.
Em

I made her take on a masculine name,
A

and now she goes on the trapeze.

  • 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.
