    I sat within the valley green

    I sat me with my true love.

    My sad heart strove the two between

    The old love an d the new love.
    Fm

    The old for her the new

    That made me think on
    Em

    Ireland dearly.

    While the soft wind blew

    down the glade
    Dm
    Em
    Dm
    F

    and shook the golden barley.
    Em

    'Twas hard the woeful

    words to frame
    Dm
    Em

    To break the ties that bound us.
    C
    Em

    But harder still to bear the shame

    of foreign chains around us.
    G

    And so I said the mountain glen
    Em

    I'll meet at morning early.
    D
    Em

    And I'll join the bold united men

    While soft winds shook the barley.

    'Twas sad I kissed away her tears

    My fond arm round her flinging.

    C

    When a foe, man's shot burst
    Em

    on our ears
    Dm

    From out the wild woods ringing.
    Em

    A bullet pierced my true love's side

    In life's young spring so early.

    And on my breast in blood she died

    While soft winds shook the barley.
    Am
    C
    Em

    But blood for blood without remorse

    I've ta'en at oulart hollow.

    I've lain my true love's

    clay like corpse

    Where I full soon must follow.

    Around her grave I've

    wandered drear

    Noon, night, and morning early.

    With breaking heart when

    e'er I hear

    The wind that shakes the barley.

    • 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.
