    Bm
    A
    Em

    No dollar of mine would I part with this day,
    G
    D
    Bm

    for fueling the engine of
    G
    D

    a bloody cruel war,
    Em
    Bm

    In my forefather's home far away,
    A
    Verse 3

    Bm
    A

    Who fled the first fammine wearing
    G

    all that they own.
    Bm

    Were called navigators
    A
    Em

    all ragged and torn,
    G
    D
    Bm

    and built the grand trunk here
    G
    D

    and found a new home,

    where ever their children were born.
    Verse 4

    name can't matter at all,

    A

    or be cause enough for to war.
    Verse 5
    Bm
    A

    And meanwhile my babies are
    G

    safe in their home.
    Bm

    Unlike their pale cousins who
    A
    Em
    G

    cower and cry,
    D
    Bm

    while kneecappers nail their
    G
    D

    poor dads to the floor,
    Bm
    A

    and teach them to hate

    and to die.
    D
    Dsus4

    Verse 6

    Bm
    A

    It's those cruel beggers who
    G
    D

    spurn the fare point,
    Bm

    The peace for their kids they
    A
    Bm
    Em
    G

    could take at their will.
    D
    Bm

    Since the day old King Billy pre
    G
    D

    vailed at the Boyne,
    Em

    They've bombed and they've
    Bm

    maimed and they've killed.
    A
    Verse 7

    Bm
    A

    Now they cry out for money
    G
    D

    and they wail at the door,
    Bm

    but home rule or republic 'tis
    A
    Bm
    Em
    G

    all of it shame
    D
    Bm

    And a curse for us here who
    G
    D

    want nothing of war.
    Bm
    A
    D

    We're kindred in nothing but name.

    A

    All rights and all wrongs have long
    G
    D

    since blown away,
    Bm

    For causes are ashes where
    A
    Bm
    Em
    G

    children lye slain,
    D
    B
    Bm
    G
    D

    Yet the damned UDL and the cruel IRA
    Em
    Bm

    will tomorrow go murdering again.
    A
    Verse 9

    Bm
    A

    But no penny of mine will I
    G

    add to the fray.
    Bm

    Remember the Boyne they
    A
    Bm
    Em
    G

    will cry out in vein,
    D
    Bm

    For I've given my heart to
    G
    D

    the place I was born
    Em
    Bm

    and for given the whole
    A

    house of Orange.

    King Billy and the whole house
    D

    of Orange.

    • 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.”
