This is a medley of three Irish tunes and I played it on Plectrology
III.
The South Wind is a slow aire in G major, just a very pretty tune. I
sometimes
add harmony notes which are enclosed in parentheses in TAB.
Mist-Covered Mountains of Home is in G natural minor (G A Bb C D Eb F)
but
the melody occasionally uses B natural E natural. You may see these as
modal
note. I learned it from John Renbourn's recording in
"Black Balloons"
Lament for Owen O'Neill is a Lament, again in G minor but with
occassional E natural.
These are slow tunes and you can add some passing notes to fill the
void, if
you like. I played it very slowly to bring out the tone of my guitar!
(and
I can't play fast anyway)
Enjoy
