The tune is in Chappell as When the King Enjoys His Own Again, which is the title of the song whose tune was used, a little later, for The World Turned Upside Down. That song is in the DT:

WHEN THE KING ENJOYS HIS OWN AGAIN with a midi of the tune; staff notation made from that midi can be seen at the site MMario mentioned:

When the King Enjoys His Own Again. It's taken from a later source than Chappell, and is not exactly the same as published by him, but differs in a few note-values only. Previous discussions of both songs can be found via the "threads" link above, or by searching for the respective titles through the "Digitrad and Forum Search" on the main Forum page.

If you get the opportunity, listen to Dick Gaughan's version of Leon's song....

That album "Handful of Earth" (another great song!) is one of my top 10 albums of all time. Dick's version of World Turned Upside Down is one of the most stirring songs ever recorded IMHO.
