Chord progression for the American fiddle tune Turkey In The Straw. Actually i think this is the progression for only the first half of the tune. If you know the changes for the second half, let me know.

If you alter the last two bars of the chords and melody of the first half ( I haven't yet figured out how exactly), you end up with the tune that modern American school kids know as "Do Your Ears Hang Low?".
