    Verse 1
    Taking 
    nothing 

    but 
    his 
    daddy's 
    old 
    bone-grip 
    knife 

    knife 

    He 
    traded 
    but 
    a 
    little 
    for 

    the 
    wayward 
    life 

    A faint 
    heart 
    never 
    won 
    fair 
    hand 

    So 
    says 
    the 
    Rose 
    of 
    England 

    Verse 2

    From 
    high 
    on 
    a 
    hill 
    came 
    the 
    clarion 
    call 

    To 
    gain 
    young 
    men, 

    come 
    one, 
    come 
    all 

    Make 
    muster 
    'gainst 
    the 
    foreign 
    hand 

    That's 
    raised 
    to 
    the 
    Rose 

    Interlude 1
    of England 



    Verse 3
    For 
    her 
    feckless 
    boys 
    she 
    did 
    weep 
    and 
    wail 

    Saying, 
    Lord 
    have 
    mercy 
    where 
    did 
    I 
    fail? 

    Out 
    of 
    my 
    belly, 
    the 
    pick 
    up 
    a 
    gun

    And 
    fall 
    for 
    the 
    Rose 

    of 
    England 

    Verse 4

    God 
    knows 
    it's 
    a 
    cold 
    outside 

    It's 
    a 
    fire 
    by 
    day 
    and 
    a 
    freeze 
    at 
    night 

    I 
    know 
    it's 
    a 
    hell 
    out 
    there 

    How 
    loud 
    the 
    mouth 
    when 

    the 
    heart 
    don't 
    care 

    Verse 5
    He's 
    damned 
    if 
    he 
    don't, 

    and 
    damned 
    if 
    he 
    do 

    He'd 
    die 
    if 
    he 
    ever 
    found 
    out 
    we 
    knew 

    Hot 
    potato, 
    drop 
    it 
    and 
    run 







    Far 
    from 
    the 
    Rose 
    of 
    England

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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.
