    • Verse 1
    Oh list 
    to 
    the 
    lay 
    of 

    a poor 
    Irish 
    harper

    And 
    scorn 
    not the 
    strains 
    of 
    his old, 

    withered 
    hands 

    But 
    remember 
    his 
    finger
    s, 

    they once 
    could move 
    sharper 

    To 
    raise 
    up 
    the 
    memory 
    of 

    his 
    dear 
    nat
    ive 
    land 

    Verse 2
    At a fair 
    or a wake, 

    I 
    could twist 
    my 
    shillelagh 

    Or trip 
    through 
    a 
    jig 
    with my 

    brogues bound 
    with 
    straw 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    pretty colleens 

    around 
    me 
    as
    sembled 

    Loved their 
    bold 
    Phelim Brady, 

    the bard 
    of Armagh 

    Oh, 
    how I long 
    to muse 
    Verse 3
    on 

    the days 
    of my boyhood 

    But four 
    score and 
    three years 

    have flitted 
    since 
    then 

    But they 
    bring 
    sweet reflection
    s, 

    as every 
    young 
    joy 
    should 

    For, the merry 
    hearted 
    boys 

    makes the 
    best 
    of old 
    men 

    And when 
    ser
    geant 
    death, 
    in 
    his 
    Verse 4

    cold 
    arms shall 
    em
    brace 
    me 

    And lull 
    me 
    to 
    sleep 
    with 

    sweet Erin 
    go bragh 

    By 
    the 
    side 
    of 
    my 
    Kath
    leen, 

    my 
    young 
    wife 
    then 
    place 
    me 

    Then 
    forget 
    Phelim 
    Brady, 

    the bard 
    of 
    Armagh

    • 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.”
