Guitar: Carrickfergus

I have loved this song for many years, but rarely get the chance to sing it. I have had to pitch it in the key of G, which I play by putting my capo on the 7th fret and playing in the chord key of C. The reason for this is that if I play in the natural key of C, to middle part is too high for me to sing quietly and my microphone does not like it when I put too much power into my voice. I was inspired to upload this thanks to the whistle playing of my friend from Scotland, Gordon, who I hope might be able to add a whistle part to accompany this video and upload it himself. Look out for 'hostroute' releasing a duet of this number.
