    • Verse 1
    I 
    want 
    you 
    cats 
    to 
    dig 
    this 
    story. 

    There 
    was 
    a 
    tavern 
    in 
    the 
    town 

    With 
    a 
    chick 
    whose 
    name 
    was 

    Honey 

    Brown 

    Be
    hind 
    those 
    swinging 
    door
    s 

    She 
    filled 
    my 
    fa
    vorite 
    stein 

    An
    d 
    my 
    love 
    promised 

    to 
    be 
    mine 

    There 
    was 
    a 
    tav
    ern 
    down 

    the 
    street 

    Where 
    my 
    true 
    love 

    and I 
    would 
    meet 

    An
    d 
    when 

    I 
    clinged 
    to her 

    Like 
    ivy 
    to 
    a 
    vine 

    I 
    tasted 
    lips 
    as 
    sweet 
    as 
    wine 

    We 
    rubbed 
    elbows 
    with 
    the 

    mayor 
    and 
    a 
    grand 
    piano 
    player 

    There 
    was 
    no 
    one 
    feelin' 
    gayer 

    when 
    my 
    poor 
    heart 
    broke 

    Cause 
    a 
    fella 
    they 
    call 

    Crandall 
    overturned 
    a 
    lighted 
    candle 

    And 
    the 
    tavern 
    and 
    my 
    love 
    went 

    up 
    in 
    smoke 

    Mmm, 
    don't 
    you 
    know 
    I'll 

    miss 
    that 
    tavern 
    in 
    the town 

    An
    d 
    I 
    will 
    also 
    miss 

    Miss 

    Honey 

    Brown 

    I 
    am 
    like 
    a 
    child 
    that's 
    lost 

    The 
    only 
    friend 
    he 
    found 

    So 
    goodbye 
    old 
    tavern 
    in 
    the 
    town 

    Yes, 
    good
    bye, 
    old 
    tav
    ern 
    in 
    the 
    town 

    I'll 
    find 
    the 
    cat 
    that 
    burned 
    you 
    down 

    I 
    will 
    never, 
    never rest 

    Until 
    he's 
    six 
    feet 
    in 
    the 
    ground 

    So 
    good 
    -bye, 
    good 
    -bye, 

    good 
    -bye, 

    Tavern 
    in 

    Love 

    Town! 

    Yeah!

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
