    Verse 1
    I close 
    my 
    eyes 
    and 

    picture 
    the 
    emerald 
    of 
    the 
    sea 

    From 
    the 
    fishing 
    boats 
    at 
    Dingle 
    to 

    the shores 
    of 
    Dunadee 

    I miss 
    the 
    River 
    Shannon 
    and 
    the 

    folks 
    at 
    Skipparee 

    The moor 
    lands 
    and 
    the 
    meadows 

    With 
    their 
    forty 
    shades 
    of 
    green 

    Verse 2
    But 
    most 
    of 
    all 
    miss 
    girl 

    in 
    Tipperary 
    town 

    And 
    most 
    of 
    all 
    miss 
    her 
    lips 

    as 
    soft 
    as 
    eider
    down 

    Again 
    want 
    to 
    see 
    and 
    do 
    the 
    things 

    we've 
    done 
    and 
    seen 

    Where 
    the breeze 
    is sweet 
    as 
    Shalimar 

    And 
    there's 
    forty 
    shades 
    of 

    green 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    wish 
    that 
    could 
    spend 
    an 
    hour 

    at 
    Dublin's 
    churning 
    surf 

    I'd 
    love 
    to 
    watch 
    the 
    farmers 
    drain 

    the 
    bogs 
    and 
    spade 
    the 
    turf 

    To 
    see 
    again 
    the 
    thatching 
    of 

    the 
    straw 
    the 
    women 
    glean 

    I'd 
    walk 
    from 
    Cork 
    to 
    Lairn to 

    see 
    their 
    forty 
    shades 
    of 
    green 

    Verse 4
    But 
    most 
    of 
    all 
    miss 
    girl 

    in 
    Tipperary 
    town 

    And 
    most 
    of 
    all 
    miss 
    her 
    lips 

    as 
    soft 
    as 
    eider
    down 

    Again 
    want 
    to see 
    and 
    do 
    the 

    things 
    we've 
    done 
    and 
    seen 

    Where 
    the 
    breeze 
    is 
    sweet 
    as 
    Shali
    mar 

    And 
    there's 
    forty 
    shades 

    of 
    green

    • 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.
