​                 Fiddlers Green Banjo / Mandolin Tab

This version of the notes are in the key of G. [ Easy to follow banjo letter notes also included ] The 4 string tenor banjo / mandolin tuning is standard GDAE plus a version in the tuning of CGDA. These are my own notes and are slightly different to other sheet music for this song, that's because I first heard it from The Wolfe Tones and this is the way I heard the notes being sang. It wasn't until much later that I heard John Connoly or Barney McKenna singing it and could then tell that they were singing it a bit different than me. It was too late at that stage as the tune was embedded in me head. More banjo / mandolin tabs .
