I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern

To buy me a bottle of beer

Em

And I sat me down by a tender young maiden
A
D

Who's eyes were as dark as her hair
G

And as I was searching from bottle to bottle

For something un-foolish to say

That silver-tongued devil

just slipped from the shadows

And smilingly stole her away

I said: "Hey, little girl,

don't you know he's the devil?"

He's everything that I ain't
C
G
Em

Hiding intentions of evil

D

Under the smile of a saint

All he's good for is getting in trouble

And shiftin' his share of the blame
C
G
Em

And some people swear he's my double
A

And some even say we're the same

But the silver-tongued devil's
G

got nothing to lose

I'll only live 'til I die

We take our own chances

Like all the fair maidens

who've laid down beside him

She knew in her heart that he'd lied

Nothin' that I could have said

No matter how hard that she tried

Of somethin' that she's never known

And open her arms at the smile of a stranger

Who'll love her and leave her alone

  • 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.
