Verse 1
D

She was leaning

on the cyclone farm gate
Bm

Talking to a little bird
D

You've got to be careful

what you wish for
Bm

She said as if the little bird heard
G

She made herself a man -trap,
A

and caught him by the toe
G

Tangled herself in love -grass,
A

and it won't let her go
D

I'm talking about a girl from the mallee,
Bm

who set herself up for life
D

With three boys to love her as a mother,
Bm

and a good man to love her as his wife
G

But she's got a bucket full of
A

rainbows and a twinkle in her eye
G

As she sings like a magpie morning of the cockies
A
D
Bm
D
Bm
G
A

in a purple sky
D

She's a breath of fresh air

through the homestead
Bm

Rain on the roof in a drought
D

Pictures of sea in the campfire
Bm

She's all that the bush is about
G

There was dust from the

sheep in the sunrise
A

Where the cul -de -sac trees are old
G

And a beam through the

storm hits the river
A

And covers the gums with gold
D

She was leaning on the

cyclone farm gate
Bm

Talking to a little bird
D

You gotta be careful what you wish for
Bm

She said as if the little bird heard
G

I'm talking about a girl from the

Mallee

Who set herself up for life

With three boys to love her as a mother

And a good man to love her as

  • 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.
