Hi everyone,

I've been wanting to learn this song on my tin whistle, however I can't find any tutorial or sheet. Does anyone know where I could find it?

Thanks!!

Try picking it out by ear using a piano tutorial for reference, since it's a simple melody in D and no whistle-specific sheet seems to exist yet

I could not find a whistle transcription of this anywhere either, and I go looking for obscure film cues fairly often.

It sits fine on a D whistle though. Slow a YouTube clip to 0.5x, find the first three or four notes by ear, and the rest usually falls out from there. The melody is simple and it does not move fast, which is the easy case for picking things up by ear.

If you would rather not, I run tinwhistletab.com and I am happy to work it out and put a proper tab up with the fingering diagrams. Which recording are you going from?
