    Verse 1
    Come 
    all 
    you 
    young 
    rebels, 

    and 
    list 
    while 
    we 
    sing 

    For 
    the 
    love 
    of 
    one's 

    country 
    is 
    ter
    rible 
    thing 

    It 
    banishes 
    fear 
    with 
    the 
    speed 
    of 
    flame 

    And 
    it makes 
    us 
    all 
    part 

    of 
    the 
    patriot 
    game 

    Verse 2

    My 
    name 
    is 
    O'Han
    lon, 

    and 
    I'm 
    just 
    gone 
    six
    teen 

    My 
    home 
    is 
    in 
    Monaghan, 

    and 
    where 
    was 
    weaned 

    I've 
    learned 
    all 
    my 
    life, 

    cruel 
    England's 
    to 
    blame 

    And 
    so 
    I'm 
    part 
    of 
    the 
    patriot 
    game 

    Verse 3

    This 
    Ireland 
    of 
    ours 
    has 
    for 

    long 
    been 
    half 
    free 

    Six 
    counties 
    lie un
    der 

    John 
    Bull's 
    tyranny 

    So 
    we 
    gave 
    up 
    our 
    boyhood 

    to 
    drill 
    and 
    to 
    train 

    To 
    play 
    our 
    own 
    part 
    in 
    the 
    patriot 
    game 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    It's 
    barely 
    two 
    years 
    since 

    they 
    wandered 
    away 

    and 
    it 
    was 
    with 
    the 
    local 
    bat

    talion 
    of 
    the 
    bold 
    IRA 

    For 
    they'd 
    read 
    of 
    our 
    her
    oes, 

    and 
    they 
    wanted 
    the same 

    To play 
    their 
    own 
    part 
    in 

    the 
    patriot 
    game 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 5
    And 
    now 
    as 
    lie 
    here, 

    my 
    body 
    all 
    holes 

    think 
    of 
    those 
    traitors 

    who 
    bargained 
    in 
    souls 

    wish 
    that 
    my 
    rifle 
    had 
    given 
    the 
    same 

    To 
    those 
    Quis
    lings who 

    sold 
    out 
    the patriot 
    game

    • 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.
