Danny Boy (Melody and Harmony) Harmonica Tabs

Danny Boy (also known as Londonderry Air)
by Fred E. Weatherly

Ever wanted to jam with a fellow harp player?
Then you’ve hit the pot of gold with this tab.
This is arranged for 2 harps and a guitar.
The song key is D, and both harps will play in 12th position with “A”
Diatonic harp.
This unusual position was chosen to avoid any bending or overblows.
It’s so easy even a leprechaun could do it.
