    Hello 
    boys 
    I've been 
    Verse 1
    away 

    On 
    a bit 
    of a holiday 

    To 
    the land 
    where the rivers 
    freely 
    flow 

    And 
    the cattle 
    roam 
    on the wild 
    callagh 

    Walking 
    home 
    three parts 
    pissed 

    I stumbled 
    and fell 
    in the morning 
    mist 

    I fell 
    and rolled 
    in the hungry 
    grass 

    That 
    tells 
    the tale 
    of a terrible 
    past 

    I screamed 
    and ran 
    and dreamt 
    I fell 

    Down 
    in the depths of 
    a freezing 
    hell 

    Four 
    million 
    people 
    starved 
    to death 

    Could 
    smell 
    the curse on 

    their dying 
    breath 

    Where no one 
    ever 
    wants to 
    go 

    Down 
    in the 
    ground 
    where 
    the dead men 
    go 

    To 
    hell which 
    is 
    circular 
    all 
    around 

    Down 
    in the belly 
    of the big cold 

    ground 

    The moving 
    shadows were 

    everywhere 

    The very 
    trees seemed 
    to bend 

    and stare 

    I remembered 
    the dunes 

    on a Sligo 
    shore 

    Screamed and 
    ran till 
    I could run no 
    more 

    Over 
    the fields and 
    across the 
    moor 

    I ran 
    in the house 

    and slammed the 
    door 

    What the 
    hell's that 
    over there 

    A 
    putrefying 
    corpse sitting 

    in that 
    chair 

    Where no one 
    ever 
    wants to 
    go 

    Down 
    in the ground 
    where 
    the 

    dead men 
    go 


    Been 
    drunk as 
    a skunk since 

    I've 
    been home 

    From bar 
    to bar 
    like a ghost 

    I roamed 

    I can't forget 
    those 
    things 
    I saw 

    Been 
    down 
    with 

    the devil 
    in the 
    Dalling 
    Road 

    One 
    place I 

    don't want to go 


    Down in the ground where 
    the dead men go

      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.
