Come Along Jody - Tex Logan

[BradKlein]

Can anyone point me to sheet music or tab for this tune?

[BradKlein]

I'll get it figured out by ear with a little more work. Here's a simple question that maybe someone can help me with. What key is this tune in? I think that I should write it out in A major, even though it makes constant use of the flat three and flat seven. Or should it be written out in a-minor? Is this a modal tune, or just a major fiddle tune with blue notes?

I used to have sheet music for this from Fletcher Bright. I can't find it but I'm fairly certain it's in A major...with blue notes and a couple unexpected twists and turns. If I find it I'll shoot it along to you.

[Tbone]

It's in A maj, but it's modal. I have it, let me check.

[BradKlein]

Thanks!

I have the melody pretty much figured out by now, but I wonder how I should write it out. I'm now thinking that it's in A dorian mode and would be notated with one sharp (F), like G major, following the method in the Fiddler's Fake Book.
