Jock Tamson's Hornpipe

From the playing of the Cape Breton Symphony, so it's a hornpipe played at reel tempo in a 'Scottish'-dance-band-type arrangement. The LP is here:

An attempt at identifying the chords played by Bobby Brown and co. behind the fiddles (‘Ad’ = D chord + 'A' bass note; ‘D’ = D chord; F#d = D chord + F# bass note etc.): --
