    Melo, 

    the 
    moonlight 
    to 
    shine 
    is 
    begin
    ning 

    Close 
    by 
    the 
    window 
    young 

    Eileen 
    is 
    spinning 

    Bent 
    o 'er 
    the fire 
    her 
    blind 

    grandmother 
    sitting 

    Is 
    groaning 
    and 
    moaning 

    and 
    drowsily 
    knitting 

    Merrily, 
    cheerily, 
    nois
    ily 
    we 
    ring, 
    spins 
    the 
    wheel, 

    swings 
    the 
    wheel, 
    while 
    the 
    foot's 
    stir
    ring. 

    Brightly 
    and 
    lightly 
    and 
    merrily 
    ringing, 

    sound
    s the 
    sweet 
    voice 
    of 
    the young 
    maiden 
    singing. 

    Ain
    i, 
    apara, 
    I 
    hear 
    someone 
    tap
    ping, 

    Tis 
    the ivy, 
    dear granny, 

    against 
    the 
    glass 

    flapping. 

    Aini, 
    I 
    surely 
    hear 
    somebody 
    sighing, 

    Tis 
    the sound, 
    mother 
    dear, 

    of 
    the autumn 

    winds 
    dy
    ing. 

    Merzy, 
    cheerly, 
    noisily 
    whirr
    ing, 

    Spins 
    the 
    wheel, 

    swings 
    the 
    wheel, 
    while 
    the 

    Foots 
    are star
    ing, 
    sprightly 
    and 
    delightly, 

    and 
    merrily 
    ringing, 

    Sounds 
    the 
    sweet 
    voice 
    of 
    the young 

    maiden 
    singing. 

    There's 
    a 
    form 
    at 
    the 
    casement, 

    a 
    form 
    of 
    her 
    true 
    love, 

    And 
    he whispers 
    with 
    face 
    bent, 

    I'm 
    waiting 
    for 
    you 
    now. 

    Get 
    up 
    from 
    the stool, 

    throw the 
    dirty 
    step 
    lightly, 

    And 
    will 
    rob 
    in the 
    grove, 

    while the 
    moon's 
    shining 
    brightly. 

    Merrily, 
    cheerily, 
    nois
    ily 
    whirr
    ing, 

    Sings 
    the 
    wheel, 
    swings 
    the 
    wheel, 

    while 
    the 
    foots are 
    stirring. 

    Brightly 
    and 
    nightly 

    and 
    eerily 
    ringing, 

    Sounds 
    the 
    sweet 
    voice 
    of 

    the young 
    maiden 
    singing. 

    Lord, 
    and 

    Lord, 
    and 

    Lord, 
    the whale 
    swings. 

    Lord, 
    and 

    Lord, 
    and 

    Lord, 
    the 
    reel 
    rings. 

    Ere 
    the wind 
    grew real, 

    stopped 
    their 
    spinning 
    and 
    their 
    mov
    ing, 

    To 
    the 
    grove 
    the 
    young 
    lovers 

    by 
    moon
    light 
    are 
    roving.

      "

      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.
