I mushed from Port Barrol through
D

a blizzard of snow

Been out prospecting for

two years or so

Pulled into Fairbanks, the city was a boon

So I took a little stroll to the

Red Dog Saloon
Verse 2
G


When I walked in the door,
D
G

the music was clear

Prettiest voice I had heard

in two years

The song she kept singing would

make a man's blood run cold

When it's springtime in Alaska,
C

it's forty below
G
Verse 3


It was red headed Louie that
D
G

was singing so sweet

I reached down and took the

snow packs off of my feet

I reached for the gal that

was singing the tune

We did the Eskimo hop all

around the saloon

Verse 4


Where the caribou crawl and

the grizzly bear hug

We did our dance on a Kodiak rug

The song she kept singing would

make a man's blood run cold

When it's springtime in Alaska,

Verse 5

Well, I was as innocent as I could be

I didn't know that Louie

He took out his knife and

he gave it a throw

When it's springtime in Alaska,

I'll be six feet below

  • 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.
