    • Verse 1

    Lay 
    by your 
    pleading, 

    law lies 
    a- bleeding 

    Burn 
    all your studies down, 

    and throw away 
    your reading 

    Small 
    power the 
    word 
    has, 

    and 
    can afford 
    us 

    Not 
    half so 
    much 
    privilege 

    Interlude 1
    as the 
    sword 
    does 


    It'll 
    the foster 
    the 
    master, 
    plaster 
    Verse 2

    dis
    aster 

    This'll 
    make a 
    servant 
    quickly 

    greater 
    than the 
    master 

    Ventures, 
    enters, 
    seeks 
    and it 
    centres 

    Interlude 2
    Ever 
    the 
    upper 
    hand, 
    never 
    a dissenter 


    Verse 3
    Kruger, 
    Krugerrand- a, 

    whither 
    do you 
    wander? 

    Gone to 
    the suborning 
    of 

    Hastings 
    Banda 

    Kruger, 
    Krugerrand- a, tear 

    you 
    all 
    asun
    der 

    Interlude 3
    Beira 
    to 
    Luanda, Gabarone to Nyanga 


    Verse 4
    Talks 
    of small 
    things, 

    it sets 
    up all 
    things 

    This'll 
    master 
    money, 

    though 
    money 
    masters 
    all 
    things 

    It is 
    not 
    season 
    to talk 
    of reason 

    Never 
    call 
    it loyal 
    when the 

    Interlude 4
    sword 
    says 
    treason 


    Balm 
    for the 
    worrier, 
    the 
    Verse 5

    whaler, 
    the 
    furrier 

    This'll 
    get the 
    measure 
    of 

    a Rainbow 
    Warrior 

    Incognito, 
    come 
    and sink 
    a Rainbow 

    President 
    will 
    never 
    know, 

    Interlude 5
    I should 
    bloody 
    coco 


    Verse 6
    Subtle 
    deceiver, 
    turns 
    calm 
    to 
    fever 

    See 
    the 
    pilgrim 
    flay 
    the 
    unbeliever 

    It'll 
    make a 
    lay 
    man, 

    preach 
    and to 
    pray 
    man 

    It'll 
    make 
    a Lord 
    of him that 
    was 

    but a 
    drayman 

    Interlude 6

    Verse 7
    Conquers 
    the 
    crown 
    too, 

    grave 
    and the 
    gown 
    too 

    Set you 
    up 
    a province, 

    but 
    it'll 
    pull it 
    down 
    too 

    No 
    gospel 
    can 
    guide 
    it, 
    no 
    law decide 
    it 

    In 
    church 
    or 
    state, 

    Interlude 7
    till the 
    sword 
    sanctified 
    it 


    Take 
    books, 
    rent 
    'em, 
    Verse 8

    who 
    can 
    invent 
    'em? 

    When 
    that the 
    sword 
    says there'll 

    be no 
    argumentum 

    Blood 
    that is 
    spilt, 
    sir, 

    has gained 
    all 
    the guilt, 
    sir 

    Thus 
    have you 
    seen me 
    run my 
    sword 
    up to the 
    hilt, 

    Outro 1
    sir

      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 🙂

      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.
