Verse 1
G

You gentlemen and tradesmen
D

who ride about at will,
G
C

Look down on these poor people,
G
D
G

it's enough to make you krill.

Look down on these poor people
D

as you ride up and down,
G
C

I'm sure that as a god above
D
G

they'll bring your pride quite down.

You tyrants of England,
D

your race may soon be rum,
G
C

You may be brought into account
G
D
G
C
G
D

for what you've surely done.
G

You pull down our wages
D

and shamefully to tell
G
C

You're going to the markets
G
D
G

and you say you cannot sell

And when that we do ask you
D

and these bad times'll mend
G
C

You quickly give an an swer
D
G

when the war's at a turn end

You tyrant of England,
D

your race may soon be wrong
G
C
G

You may be brought into account
D
G
C
G
D

for what you've sorely done
G

When we look on our poor children
D

it grieves our hearts full sore
G
C

The clothing it is worn to rags
G
D
G

and we can get no more

With little in their bellies
D

as they to work must go
G

While yours do dress as manky
C
G
D
G

as monkeys in the show

You tyrants of England,
D

your race may soon be run
G
C
G

You may be brought into account
D

for what you've sorely
G
C
G
D
G

done

You've got a church on Sundays,
D

and I'm sure it's notebook pride
G

There can be no religion
C
D

when humanity's thrown aside
G

If there be a place in heaven,
D

as there is in the exchange
G
C

Apostles they may not come near,
G
D
G

like lost sheep they must range

You tyrants of England,
D

your race may soon be run
G
C

You may be brought into account
G
D
G
C
G
D

for what you've sorely done
G

And you say that Bonaparty
D

has been the spoil of all
G
C

And that we've got good reason
G
D
G

for to pray for his downfall

Well Bonaparty's dead and gone
D

and it is plainly shown
G
C

That we've got bigger tyrants
G
D
G

in bonies of our own

You tyrants of England,
D

your age may soon be wrong
G
C

You may be brought into account
D
G
C
G
D
G

for what you've sorely done

And now, my lads,

for to conclude,
D

it's time to make an end
G
C

Let's see if we can form a plan
G
D
G

that these bad times'll mend

Then give us our old prices
D

as we have had before
G
C

And we can live in happiness
G
D

and rub off the old score
G

You tyrants of England,
D

your race may soon be run
G

You may be brought into account
D
G

for what you've solely done

  • 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.
