Absolutely fantastic. I love your version of this tune. Its very like the Clancy Brothers version of it. I love the guitar picking you do. Excellent. I have been trying to learn that tune with a long time now but cant find the tabs anywhere. Do you have any suggestions.??

Thank you, I learned it by ear and I used G, a and D. You are free to find your own way, the author, Michel P. Smith plays it in different ways, so you can do like you feel. Maybe, I post an introduction of my playing.

Best regards

Michael

@2xVitamR Yes. I have watched you play this now surely one hundred times.!!! i think you have the purest version on youtube. i think I have it now. I will make a recording of it and send it on so you can give it your sign of approval. thanks again so so much for posting your version of this classic tune on the net. I really do think you do the best version, just like "the clancy Brothers"....beautiful. You should be very proud of yourself.

keith.

Thank you Rich, it was a long way to play this song. First I heard your version and than some others and for myself I had played several versions, but I think, this is the last. Have a nice week

@tinimpajko Thank you, tinimpajko. This is a song I like very much and I don't wanted to do it so sad as some other musicians here on YT. I think, Mr. Smith wanted to tell of the great love of the dutchman's wife.

Best regards

Michael

This was written by Michael Peter Smith, not Peter M. Smith, but that's pretty close.

Nice job.
