I like to play this tune and would have played along except for my trigger finger, I have to take a break from my fiddle, like you play of this Irish tune

[@timrued5061]

Hope your finger recovers soon! It's awful not being able to play!

I sure appreciate you! Was snooping around for more folk music that I could add to my learning the fiddle and etc. And found this!... thanks for sharing so that this generation can learn it and pay it forward to the next. Beautiful!

I love playing fiddle music, and am glad you enjoy what I do!

Tim I enjoyed this so much; therefore, I subscribed to your wonderul channel! That fiddling was fantastic, and margie's piano-playing is amazing, too! Thanks for sharing your talent. God bless, Charles

Oh man! This is a wonderful version! I play it differently but probably will start emulating your style, many thanks! :) x

[@timrued5061]

Glad I could help!

Thank you so much for posting this and playing it so beautifully, both of you. I was looking all over youtube, but yours is the only version that corresponds to how I play it, and I was glad to be able to send the link to my band. Best wishes.

I hope you followed the link to get the chords.

The sun was shining through some vertical blinds and brightened just that strip on the piano.

[@marciah0312]

Is this GDAE tuning? thanks much - love it!

[@timrued5061]

Yes, I play mostly in standard tuning.

[@marciah0312]

Cool - thank you!
