This plays the notes in order so you can hear how the tune goes. Tabs don’t record rhythm, so for the timing, listen to the original on YouTube. Tap any note in the tab to start from there.

notes:

8* is a blow bend on the 8 hole, creating an Eb note. For more
information on blow bending, there are a variety of websites you can
check.

the other parts of this song are also playable on a diatonic harp, but
employ the use of tongue-blocking and overblowing.. perhaps in the
future, though, I will post up the tab for that.
