    New 

    to 

    Banbridge 

    Town 
    and 
    the 

    County 

    Down 

    One 
    morning 
    last 

    July 

    Down 
    a 
    boring 
    green 
    came 
    a 
    sweet 

    Colleen 

    And 
    she smiled 
    as 
    she 
    passed 
    me 
    by 

    She 
    looked 
    so 
    sweet 
    from 

    her 
    two 
    bare 
    feet 

    To 
    the 
    sheen 
    of 
    her 
    nut 
    -brown 
    hair 

    Such 
    a 
    coaxing 
    elf, 
    sure 
    I 
    shook 
    myself 

    To 
    make 
    sure 
    I 
    was 
    standing 
    there 

    From 

    Bantry 

    Bay 
    up 
    to 

    Derry 

    Cay 

    And 
    from 

    Galway 
    to 

    Dublin 

    Town 

    No 
    maid 
    I've 
    seen 
    like 
    the 
    brown 

    Colleen 

    That 
    I 
    met 
    in 
    the 

    County 

    Down 


    As 
    she 
    onward 
    sped, 

    sure 
    I scratched 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    I 
    looked 
    with 
    a 
    feeling 
    red 

    And 
    I 
    says 
    aye 
    to 
    a 
    passer 
    -by 

    Who's 
    the 
    maid 
    with 
    the 
    nut 
    -brown 
    hair 

    He 
    smiled 
    at 
    me 
    an
    d 
    he 
    says, 

    says 
    he 

    That's 
    the 
    gent 
    of 

    Ire
    land's 
    crown 

    It's 
    a 

    Rosie 

    McCann 
    from 
    the 
    banks 
    of 
    the 

    Banshees 

    The 
    star 
    of

    At 
    the 

    Harvest 

    Fair 
    she'll 
    be 
    surely 
    there 

    and 
    I'll 
    dress 
    in 
    my 

    Sunday 
    clothes 

    With 
    my 
    shoes 
    shone 
    bright 
    and 
    my 
    hat's 
    carved 

    right 
    for 
    a smile 
    with 
    my 
    naughty 
    brown 
    rose 

    No 
    pipe 
    I 
    smoke, 
    no 
    horse 
    I 
    yoke 

    Till 
    my 
    plough 
    turns 
    a 
    rust 
    -coloured 
    brown 

    Till 
    a 
    smiling 
    bride

    own 
    fireside

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
