Guitar: Matt Hyland

This song is one I first heard on a tape of Paddy Reilly, before he joined the Dubliners. I thought then that it was a lovely song, though somewhat difficult to sing and play in places, so I have not used it much. However in searching for other versions to help me make my own, I came across a lovely version by a Celtic Harpist called Molly Bauckham. This has inspired me to try even harder, so I have been working day and night since yesterday on my own arrangement. It will take some more work yet to polish it up so I can perform it in public, but here is my first reasonable, though far from perfect attempt.
