Doing some looking into the Scottish traditions around Hogmany (New Years Day), I find a lot of references to a song called “A GUID NEW YEAR”
I have found the words and one MIDI file of the tune but no sheet music in any format (GIF OR ABC, etc.)
Does anyone have an ABC file of this song? I have tried to create one but I would like to check it against other versions and I want to get the chords!
Here is the ABC notation that I came up with. Any help with other versions will be appreciated!
