This tab may have a few mistakes (bends that a C harp cannot play). If a line sounds wrong, tell us which one.

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.

The Ab harp tab (bottom line) contains 
the correct notes, 
but I can't play it with much expression.  
The Bb harp tab (top line) contains a 
recurring wrong note, but playing with 
expression is much easier.
