The spy jig.
Heard this one around sessions in Cork 2000., Know no more than that really, I think its pretty much as I picked it up by ear, but...
Great little tune, always raises a smile! Not sure of its provenance, anyone know a bit more?
My first attempt at ABC with a little help and correction from a friend.

The first phrase sounds like part of a TV show theme song... Fun tune though

This is quite bare bones, though. The G# is slid up to, and the B part has some variations, though it has this neat 3-feel in contrast to the 6/8 of the A part.

Wait, I'm wrong...
I did a double take on the set list... it's "Jump at the Sun". I don't recant the variation, though ;)
Btw, There's another post of this already...
