The Playhouse Saint chords by 
Ed Mccurdy

Verse 1
D
A
D
Near famous Covent Garden,
A
D
A dome there stands on high,
A
Where kings are represented,
D
And queens in metered eye,
A
The both and men of business,
D
A
D
Diversions hither bring,
G
D
To hear the wanton doxies print,
G
D
And see them dance and sing,
A
With a fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la,
D
A
D
A
D
A
D
A
D
With a fa -la -la -la -la -la.
A
D
Here Phyllis is the darling,
A
D
as she herself gives out
A
As tight a lass as ever,
D
did use a double clout
A
She's brisk and gay and cunning,
D
and wants a wedlock yoke
G
D
Her mother was before her,
G
D
as good as ever stroked
A
With a fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la,
D
A
D
A
D
A
D
with a fa -la -la -la -la.
A
D
Young suitors she had many,
A
D
from squire up to lord,
A
And daily she refused them,
D
for virtue was the word.
A
A saint she would be thought,
D
A
D
and assembled all she could,
G
D
But jolly rakes all knew she was of
A
D
playhouse flesh and blood,
A
And her fa la la la, la la la la la,
D
A
D
A
D
A
D
and her fa la la la la.
A
D
Her mother, when encouraged
A
D
with warm Geneva dose,
Still cried,
A
Take care, dear filly,
D
A
D
To keep thy hunches close.
A
This made her stand out stoutly,
D
A
D
Opposing all that come,
G
D
And twenty demy cannons
G
D
still were mounted at her bum,
A
And her fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la,
D
A
D
A
D
And her fa -la -la -la -la -la.
The knight and country squire
A
D
were shot with her disdain
A
The lawyer was outwitted,
D
A
D
the hardy soldier slain
A
The bluff tarpaulin sailor,
D
in vain, cried hard a port
G
D
She baffled all the shirks at sea
G
A
D
as the country town and court
A
With her fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la,
D
A
D
A
D
and her fa -la -la -la -la
A
D
The god of love grown angry
A
D
that Phyllis seemed so shy
A
Resolved her pride to humble
D
and rout her pish and fie
A
He sent a slow -foot tailor
D
who knew well how to stitch
G
D
And in a little time had found
G
A
D
a button for her bridge
A
And her fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
D
A
D
A
D
And her fa -la -la -la -la -la
A
D
Yet was it not so close,
but is known without all doubt,
A
A little human figure has
D
secretly dropped out,
A
And though some petty scandal
D
pursue this venial fact,
G
D
Her mother swears and does
G
A
D
avow her honor is intact,
A
And her fa -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la,
D
A
D
And her fa -la -la -la -la. you

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
