    • Verse 1
    'God 
    save 
    Ireland!' said 
    the 
    heroes 

    'God 
    save 
    Ireland' said 
    they 
    all 

    Whether 
    on 
    the scaffold 
    high 

    Or 
    the 
    battlefield 
    we 
    die 

    Oh, 
    what 
    matter 
    when 
    for 

    Erin 
    dear 
    we 
    fall! 

    Verse 2
    High 
    upon 
    the gallows 
    tree 
    swung 

    the 
    noble- 
    hearted 
    Three 

    By 
    the vengeful 
    tyrant 

    stricken 
    in 
    their 
    bloom 

    But 
    they 
    met 
    him 
    face 
    to face, 

    with 
    the 
    courage 
    of 
    their 
    race 

    And 
    they 
    went 
    with 
    souls 
    un

    daunted 
    to 
    their 
    doom 

    Verse 3
    'God 
    save 
    Ireland!' said 
    the 
    heroes 

    'God 
    save 
    Ireland' said 
    they 
    all 

    Whether 
    on 
    the scaffold 
    high 

    Or the battlefield 
    we die 

    Oh, 
    what 
    matter 
    when 
    for Erin 

    dear we fall! 

    (Verse Not In the 
    Luke Kelly Collection) 
    Girt 
    around with 
    cruel foes, still 

    Verse 4

    their courage 
    proudly rose 

    For they thought 
    of hearts that 

    loved them 
    for and 
    near 

    Of the 
    mil
    lions 
    true and brave 

    o'er the ocean's 
    swelling 
    wave 

    And the 
    friends in holy 

    Ireland 
    ever dear 

    Verse 5
    Climbed 
    they up 
    the rugged 
    stair, 

    rang 
    their 
    voices 
    out 
    in 
    prayer 

    Then with 
    England's 
    fatal 

    cord 
    around 
    them 
    cast 

    Close 
    be
    side 
    the gallows 
    tree 

    kissed 
    like 
    brothers 
    lov
    ingly 

    True 
    to 
    home 
    and 
    faith 
    and 

    freedom 
    to 
    the 
    last 

    Verse 6
    'God 
    save

    all 

    Whether 
    on 
    the scaffold 
    high 

    Or 
    the 
    battlefield 
    we 
    die 

    Oh, 
    what 
    matter 
    when 
    for 

    Erin 
    dear 
    we 
    fall! 

    Verse 7
    Never 
    till 
    the latest 
    day 
    shall 

    the 
    memory 
    pass 
    away 

    Of the 
    gallant 
    lives 
    thus 
    given 
    for our 
    land 

    But 
    on 
    the 
    cause 
    must 
    go, 

    amidst 
    joy 
    and 
    weal 
    and 
    woe 

    Till 
    we 
    make 
    our 
    Isle 
    a na

    free 
    and 
    grand

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
