Verse 1
G

The sun was setting in the west,
Em

the birds were singing on every tree.
G
D

All nature seemed inclined for a rest,
Em

but still there was no rest for me.

Farewell
G

Nova

Scotia, the sea -bound coast
Em

Drift your mountains dark and dreary -beat
G
D

For when I am far away on

the flying ocean's coast
Em

Will you ever breathe a

sigh and a wish for me?
G

I grieve to leave my native land,
Em

I grieve to leave my comrades all,
G
D

And my ancient parents

whom I held so dear,
Em

And the bonnie,

bonnie lass that I do adore.
G

Farewell, skull,

share the sea -bound coast
Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be
G
D

For when I'm far away on the

briny ocean coast
Em

Will you ever breathe a sigh

and a wish for me?
G

The drums they do bleed,

and the wars do alarm
Em

The captain calls, we must obey
G
D

So farewell, farewell to

Nova

Scotia's charms
Em

For it's early in the morning,

I am far, far away

Farewell,
G

Nova

Scotia, the sea -bound coast
Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be
G
D

For when I am far away on the dry,

the ocean -crossed
Em

Will you ever breathe a

sigh and a wish for me?
G

I have three brothers and they are at rest
Em

Their arms are folded on their breasts
G
D

But a poor simple sailor just like me
Em

Must be tossed and driven

on the dark blue sea

Farewell
G

Nova

Scotia, the sea -bound coast
Em

Let your mountains dark and weary be
G
D

For when I am far away

on the bright ocean coast
Em

Will you ever breathe a sigh

and a wish for me?

Will you ever breathe a sigh

and a wish for me?

Thank you.

  • 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.
