Here are the TABS for Turkey in the Straw for a Chromatic Harmonica with 20 Tones/10 holes.
"Turkey in the Straw" is an American folk song that first gained popularity in the early 19th century.
"Turkey in the Straw" was initially a popular tune for fiddle players as early as 1820.
The first part of the song is a contrafactum of the ballad "My Grandmother Lived on Yonder Little Green", published in 1857 by Horace Waters, 333 Broadway, New York, which itself is a contrafactum of the Irish ballad "The Old Rose Tree" which was published by at least 1795 in Great Britain
For anyone interested this is part of my new series of tutorials which will consist of me presenting the raw tabs for various public domain tunes. I get a lot of feed back from viewers who really just want the tabs or the very basics and aren't really interested in what the notes are and want to be able to just follow the numbers.
This harmonica is in the key of C, but if your harmonica is in a different key the tabs will still be exactly the same. Just turn the volume down if and follow the finger and the arrows.
Fun fact - here in New Zealand this song is known as "Do your ears hang low", which is a slightly different tune but I think we must have stolen it from the Americans and changed the lyrics to suit our kiwi strangeness! Unless of course it was the Australians, I actually don't know where "Do your ears hang low" even came from!
