In the middle (bridge) and the end of Great Big Sea's John Barbour, there's an amazing whistle piece (you're my hero, Bob!). After a lot of research and notation reading, I found out that it's a modified version of the traditional Irish song Rambling Irishman used for instrumental solos.
I have finally finished writing the ABC Notation.

I have written the tune in D for whistle fingering even though it's played on a B-flat whistleIf you've never seen or heard of ABC Notation, I wrote an indepth tutorial on the Insomniac Games Forums in 2008.
If you're lazy, the dot-notation is posted after the jump.
