    Verse 1
    Now 
    Burke 

    was 
    man 
    one 
    could 
    listen 
    to 
    for 
    hours, 

    he had 
    one 
    of those 
    voices 

    and 
    great 
    stories 
    to 
    tell, 

    and he 
    spoke 
    with 
    such 
    pas
    sion 

    and 
    with 
    so 
    much 
    conviction 

    about 
    the 
    people 
    who 
    were 
    blessed 

    to 
    have 
    known 
    him 
    at 
    all. 

    And 
    he 
    ran 
    busy 
    docker's 
    pub 

    in 
    the 
    East 
    End 

    with 
    his 
    wife 
    in 
    the 
    sixties 

    but 
    they 
    never 
    gave 
    him 
    any 
    grief 

    cos 
    they 
    all 
    thought 
    that 

    Ber
    t was 
    the 
    strongest 
    man 
    in 
    the 
    world 

    and 
    how 
    they 
    loved 
    him. 

    He 
    was 
    boy 
    in 
    the 
    war 

    though 
    he 
    never 
    left 
    London 

    Did 
    his 
    na
    tional 
    ser
    vice 

    and 
    then 
    married 
    his 
    girl 

    They 
    were 
    to
    gether 
    their 
    whole 
    life, 

    he 
    couldn't 
    stand 
    to 
    be without 
    her 

    And 
    when 
    he was 
    done 
    at 
    the 
    pub

    they 
    moved 
    where 
    nobody 
    knew 
    them 

    And 
    all 
    that 
    he 
    needed 
    was 
    her 
    company, 

    he 
    was 
    so 
    happy 
    around 
    her

    And 
    she'd 
    do 
    anything 
    for 
    him, 

    cos 
    he was 
    hand
    some 

    and 
    he was 
    brave 

    He 
    was 
    the 
    strongest 
    man 
    in 
    the 
    world, 

    and

    she 
    loved

    • 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.
