*Notes: Susan plays this tune in F but Lissa Schneckenburger in the YouTube plays it in E. The sheet music and ABC above are courtesy of TheSession.org.

Susan writes, “This march begins on the open E string (fiddle) and marches right down to the F. The rhythms really require attention. They are a bit tricky.
