The Parting Glass (Tab)
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! The Parting Glass isn’t Irish at all but a traditional Scottish tune. However, it’s become a firm part of the Irish traditional scene since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem made it their own. More recently, it’s been covered by Ed Sheeran and cropped up in Assassin’s Creed and The Walking Dead.
The arrangement is in two parts. The first run through the verse is played campanella style (with the notes ringing into each other). Then it’s played in a fuller arrangement with chord backing. Both are one with one finger per string picking.
