Farewell to the Troubles of the World

I picked this tune up at a session in Oregon many years ago, and then lost it. Luckily I kept the dots around and recently reconstructed it.

I like it not too fast, to savor the flux between c sharps and naturals.

Great tune, Will.
There are other possibilities for the C / Csharp.
I think it's an old pipe tune in Dmix with some modern Dmaj add-ons.
Nice variation is to play F nat instaed of E in the first triplet in bar 7 / 15

This is in O'Neill's, but does anyone know of any recordings with it on? It seems like a neglected tune.
