One of our most staple tunes. Don't know the ancestry, although from the name, may be Scottish. We usually play this with My Darlin' Asleep and I Buried My Wife and Danced on Top of Her

Graemsay = one of the Orkney Islands. If a jig ends on two long notes like |d3 d3|| (a bit like a slide) or just one long note lasting a whole bar, then it's usually Scottish.
