01 Aug 02 - 02:53 PM (#758279) Subject: RE: Tune Req: The World Turned Upside Down From: Malcolm Douglas 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. |

It doesn't copy and paste neatly here. Let's try a transcription: C F G C Goody Bull and her daughter together fell out, F G C Both squabbled and wrangled and made a great rout. G D7 G But the cause of the quarrel remains to be told, C F G C Then lend both your ears and the tale I'll unfold. G D7 G Derry down, down, hey derry down, C F G C Then lend both your ears and a tale I'll unfold. (I don't play guitar so am only copying this, I can't attest to the accuracy, but listen to the video and see the transcription below it.) |
