Lesson 9. The Green Fields of America - a podcast by Tony ORourke, Gerry

We finish this series with a reel in the key of G. The tune is also known as Judy Brallaghan.

Chords are C, G and D.

This tune has first- and second-time endings. In the sheet music, the bars marked '1' are used the first time you play, and the bars marked '2' are for the second time.

Kerr's collection of merry melodies apparently dates back to the 1870's. A Google search will return a lot of references.

This is our final lesson in this series; but we will be back with more another series within a couple of weeks. If listeners have suggestions we'd love to hear them - you can add a comment at www.irishguitarpod.com, or send an email to the address listed there.

And of course the notes for the series are also avaialble for purchase there for US $9.
