%Posted June 15th 2000 at abcusers by David Barnert as an example of
%"tunes that have clear key signatures (as expressed in sharps &
%flats) but elusive tonics (and, therefore, modes)"
%   Here is what David says about the tune:
%The first one is "Shady Grove" which I can harmonize either in
%G major (beginning and ending on D chords) or A dorian (beginning and
%ending on Am chords). All the intervening chords (G's & C's) are
%unchanged. There are many subtly different versions of the tune (some
%clearly in one key or the other) and I admit to using one here that
%straddles the line.
