If you like my "work" don't hesitate to add favorite or to give it the STARS it deserves (with explanation?). Here is the list of all the songs I did upload for UG: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/contribution/3817887-frans.vanuytv/tabs?sort=-date&page=1&per-page=50 ATTENTION: This versions of youtube and Spotify are a bit detuned, my opinion. ATTENTION: All chords for 4 beats OR count the * [Intro 1] | X X X | X X X | DRUM [Intro 2] | D | D | D | A | | A | A | A | D*** | [Verse 1]

I’ll be sailing to my native land, to Ulsters rocky shore,

where on the Twelfth I always were The Sash My Father wore.
