    It 
    was 
    somewhere 
    off 
    in 

    Africa 

    On 
    dark 
    and 
    stormy 
    night 

    lightning 
    burned 
    our 
    sails 
    away 

    No 
    har
    bor 
    was 
    in 
    sight 

    Our 
    captain 
    was 
    from 

    Liverpool, 
    our 
    crew 
    from 

    Forty 

    Jails 

    Our 
    ship 
    was 
    made 
    of 
    ebony, 
    with 

    Chinese 
    sail
    ing 
    sails 

    Our 
    gunners 
    fired 
    jade 
    cannonballs, 

    from 
    handmade 
    guns 
    of 
    gold 

    Our 
    swords 
    were 
    made 
    of 
    sil
    ver, 

    our 
    hearts 
    black 
    as 
    coal 

    We 
    threw 
    the 
    skull 
    and 
    cross
    bones, 

    lived 
    on 
    fire 
    and 
    fear 

    We 
    took 
    and 
    gave 
    no 
    quarter, 

    we 
    were 

    Buccaneers 

    We 
    fought 
    with 
    ships 
    from 
    many 
    shores, 

    lived 
    and 
    died 
    as 
    men 

    Some 
    had 
    seen 
    the 
    face 
    of 

    God, 
    been 
    once 
    free 
    of 
    sin 

    We 
    flew 
    the 
    skull 
    and 
    cross
    bones, 

    lived 
    on 
    fire 
    and 
    fear 

    We 
    took 
    and 
    gave 
    no 
    quarter, 

    we 
    were 
    buccaneers, 
    oooo

    God 
    knows 
    our 
    lives 
    were 
    lonely, 

    with 
    rare 
    and 
    simple 
    song

    The 
    sharks 
    and 
    other 
    demon

    s would 
    have 
    us 
    be 
    for 
    long 

    And 
    even 
    when 
    we 
    thought 
    of 
    love, 

    we knew 
    it 
    could 
    not 
    be 

    The 
    best 
    that 
    we 
    could 
    hope 

    for 
    was 
    burial 
    at 
    sea 

    And 
    it 
    was 
    somewhere 
    off 
    of 

    Africa, 
    on 
    dark 
    and 
    stormy 
    night 

    The 
    lightning 
    burned 
    our 
    sails 
    away, 

    no 
    harbor

    We

    • 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.
