  • Verse 1
    The 
    boy 

    ran 
    away to 
    the city 

    From 
    his 
    home 
    at 
    Christmas
    time 

    They 
    were 
    Scots 
    of the 
    Riverin

    And 
    to 
    run 
    from 
    home 
    was a 
    crime 

    The 
    old 
    man 
    burned 
    his 
    let
    ters 

    The 
    first 
    and 
    last 
    he 
    burned 

    And 
    he 
    scratched 
    his 
    name 

    from 
    the Bible 

    When 
    his 
    old 
    wife's 
    back 
    was 
    turned 

    year 
    went 
    past 
    and 
    an
    other 

    And 
    the 
    fruit 
    went 
    down 
    the 
    line 

    They 
    heard 
    the 
    boy 
    and 
    he whistled, 

    but the 
    old 
    man 
    made 
    no 
    sound 

    His 
    name 
    must 
    never 
    be 
    men
    tioned 

    on 
    the 
    farm 
    by 
    Gandhigan 

    They 
    were 
    Scots 
    of 
    the 
    Riverin
    a, 

    With 
    ever 
    the 
    Kirk 
    hard 
    line. 

    The 
    boy 
    came 
    home 
    on 
    his final, 

    And the 
    township's 
    bonfire 
    burned. 

    His 
    mother's 
    arms 
    were 
    about 
    him, 

    but 
    the 
    old 
    man's 
    back 
    was turned 

    The 
    daughters 
    begged 
    for par
    don, 

    till 
    the old 
    man 
    raised 
    his 
    hand 

    scarred 
    off 
    the 
    riverin
    a, 

    it 
    was 
    hard 
    to 
    understand 

    The 
    boy 

    was 
    killed 
    in 
    Flanders 

    Where 
    the 
    bravest 
    her
    oes 
    died 

    There 
    were 
    tears 
    at the 

    Graham 
    homestead 

    And 
    grief 
    in 
    Gandhigar 

    But 
    the 
    old 
    man 
    plowed 
    at 
    daybreak 

    And 
    the 
    old 
    man 
    plowed 
    till the 
    murk 

    There 
    were 
    furrows 
    of 

    pain 
    in 
    the orchard 

    While 
    his 
    house 
    folk 
    went 

    to the 
    kirk 

    The 
    hurricane 
    lamp 
    in 
    the rafter

    dimly 
    and 
    dimly burned 

    And 
    the old 
    man 
    died 
    at the table 

    When 
    his old 
    wife's 

    back was 
    turned 

    Face 
    down 
    on 
    his 
    bare 
    arms 
    folded 

    He 
    sank 
    with 
    wild 
    grey 
    hair 

    Outspread 
    'er the 
    open 
    Bib
    le 

    And 
    a name 
    rewrit
    ten 
    there

    • 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.
