From: "Samuel J. Gravina"

Subject: A song for the Melody Maker tunning.

"When Jonney comes maching Home", an minor key song, plays real easily on
this tunning in forth position. It starts as:

2> 3> 3> 3> 3> 3 4> 3 4> 3> 2 2> 2

When John - ny comes march - ing home a - gain, ha - ray, ha - ray


On a richter harp it will never sound right cause the tonic (3--) is bent
and the other notes arn't:

2> 3-- 3-- 3-- 3-- 3 4> 3 4> 3-- 2 2> 2

When John - ny comes march - ing home a - gain, ha - ray, ha - ray


Richard Hunter does this song on a natural minor harp.



Harmonica tablature:

3 - 3 hole draw
3> - 3 hole blow
3- - 3 hole draw bent down half step
3-- - 3 hole draw bent down whole step
