Down on

old Prince Edward Island

When the winds are on the blow

And the ocean water's rollin'
D

Through the reefs and rocks below
G
C

And the Irish moss comes driftin'
F

Where the white cap waters roar
C
G

With my scoop and my fork
Em
F

and my wagon and horse
Em
G
C

I'll be headin' on down the shore

With my scoop and my fork

Em
G
C

I'll be headin' on down the shore

On old Prince Edward Island,

where the Irish moss is found,

With bags and ropes and baskets,
D
G

they come from miles around.
C

Thrashing through the water,
F
C

being careful not to fall,
D
Em

Cause one good dash and a hell of a splash,
F
C
G
C

you could lose your overalls.
Dm

There's horses in the water,
G

and horses on the road,

And here comes old Russell Elwood,
D
G

and he's hauling up another big load.
C

And the party lines keep ringing,
F

and the word keeps passing on,

You can hear them roar
D

from the Tignish shore,
F

there's Moss and Skinner's Bond.

You can hear them roar from the

Tignish shore,

G
C

there's Moss and Skinner's Bond.

On old Prince Edward Island,

there's one big hullabaloo.

The boys and the girls

and the old folks,
D

they're gonna make a few bucks,
G

too.
C

Gettin' wet to the neck

in the ocean,
F
C

where the waves all turn and toss.
Dm

But it's a free -for -all,
Em
F

and they're havin' a ball,
Em
G
C

they're bringin' in the Irish moss.

It's a free -for -all,

they're bringin' in the Irish moss.
G

Now the moss plant boys
C

are waiting to pay so much a pound

And there goes a guy on horseback
D

and they both look damn near drowned
G
C
G

But all those smiling faces
C
F

just mean one thing to me
C
Dm
Em

For every man with a calloused hand
F

G

there's a blessing from the sea
G
Em

For every man with a calloused hand
F
C
G
C

there's a blessing from the sea

There's an islander

somewhere lonesome

cause he can't be home today

To have a little sip of the moonshine
D

And haul another load away
G
C

In the land of the great potato
F

Where the lobster feeds are wild
C
Dm
Em

And we thank the boss for the Irish moss

On old Prince Edward Isle

  • 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.
