N/A
Verse 1
G

Old Riley, he's done a stallion

But they caught him and

they brought him back
C

And they laid him down on
G

the jailhouse ground
Am
C

With an iron chain around his neck
G

O 'Reilly's daughter got a message

That her father was going to have
C
G

She rode by night and came by morning
Am
A
C

With gold and silver in her hand
G

When the judge saw O 'Reilly's daughter

His old eyes deepened in his head
C
G

Saying, God will never free your father
Am
A
Am
C

The price, my dear, is you will stay
G

I'm as good as dead, says Riley

It's only you that he displays
C
G

My skin will surely fall, he touches you at all
Am
C

Get on your horse and ride away
G

Oh father, you will surely die

If I don't take the chance to try
C

And pay for the price,
G

and not take your advice
Am

For that reason I would have to
C
G

stay

G


Gower's shadow shook that evening,

and the night the hound dogged bay
C

And the night the crowns
G

were crawling,
Am
C

and the night the price was paid
G

The next morning she had awoken,

to know that the judge had never spoken
C
G

She saw the hanging branch a -bending
Am
C

She saw her father's body broken
G

Seven curses on the judge so cruel

That one doctor will not save him
C
G

That two healers will not heal him
Am
A
C

And three eyes will not see him
G

And four ears will not hear him

And five walls will not hide him
C
G

And six diggers will not bury him
Am
C
G

And seven deaths will never free him
G

  • 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.
