    Verse 1
    As 
    down 
    the 
    glen 
    one 
    Easter 
    morn 

    to 
    a 
    city 
    fair 
    rode 
    I 

    There 
    armed 
    lines 
    of 
    marching 
    men 

    in 
    squadrons 
    passed 
    me 
    by 

    No 
    pipe 
    did 
    hum 
    nor 
    battle 
    drum 

    did 
    sound 
    its 
    loud 
    tattoo 

    But 
    the 
    Angelus 
    Bells 
    o'er 
    the 
    Liffey 
    swells 

    rang 
    out 
    in 
    the 
    foggy 
    dew 


    Verse 2
    Right 
    proudly 
    high 
    in 
    Dublin 
    town 

    hung 
    they 
    out 
    a 
    flag 
    of 
    war 

    'Twas 
    better 
    to 
    die 
    'neath 
    that 
    Irish 
    sky 

    Than 
    at 
    Suvla 
    or 
    Sedd 
    el 
    Bahr 

    And 
    from 
    the 
    plains 
    of 
    Royal 
    Meath 

    strong 
    men 
    came 
    hurrying 
    through 

    While 
    Bri
    tannia's 
    huns 

    with 
    their 
    long 
    range 
    guns 

    sailed 
    in 
    through 
    the 
    foggy 
    dew 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    The 
    bravest 
    fell 
    and 
    the 
    requiem 
    bell 

    rang 
    mournful
    ly 
    and 
    clear 

    For 
    those 
    who 
    died 
    that 
    Easter 
    tide 

    in 
    the 
    springing 
    of 
    the 
    year 

    While 
    the 
    world 
    did 
    gaze 
    with 
    deep 
    a
    maze 

    at 
    those 
    fearless 
    men, 
    but 
    few 

    Who 
    bore 
    the 
    fight 
    that 
    freedom's 
    light 

    might 
    shine 
    through 
    the 
    foggy 

    dew 

    Interlude 2








    Verse 4
    And 
    back 
    through 
    the 
    glen 
    I 
    rode 
    a
    gain 

    and 
    my 
    heart 
    with 
    grief 
    was 
    sore 

    For 
    I 
    parted 
    then 
    with 
    valiant 
    men 

    whom 
    I 
    never 
    shall 
    see 
    more 

    But 
    to 
    and 
    fro 
    in 
    my 
    dreams 
    I 
    go 

    And 
    I 
    kneel 
    and 
    pray 
    for 
    you 

    For 
    slavery 
    fled, 
    O 
    glorious 
    dead 

    When 
    you 
    fell 
    in 
    the 
    foggy 
    dew

    • 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.”
