Where can I find the sheet music for What's Left of the Flag by Flogging Molly? Thanks!

I know that tune! I'm a big Flogging Molly fan and I've learned a few tunes by ear. I don't think you can find the sheet music for it.

What I can do is write the notes out and let you figure the rhythm. Will that work for you? If so, I'll post them for you in a day or two.

I would do it on Finale Notepad...but i can't figure out how to convert the files to a regular pic I can share.

I'm sure Flogging Molly might have a couple or two!

Seriously though, I'm not trying to degrade your abilities in any way, shape, or form, but FM's songs are relatively easy, in that you should be able to pick up on them using your ear, which only takes listening. That's what I did with them, at one point I had almost all of Druken Lullabies and Swagger memorized in my head. That, some of the Dropkick Murphy's and the Pogues as well. This was all before I got into real ITM.

I only suggest the ear method of obtaining their music, because I don't think you're going to find their "sheet music" online anywhere, or anywhere period. You might find guitar chords however...

Best of luck,

-Eric

I'm actually working this song up in my band now lol.

starting at the slow part its basically:

His(d) Eyes(g), they(d) closed(g), and(b) his(D) last(E) breath(E) spoke(D).

he(b) had(a) seen(g) all(b) to(a) be(g) seen(e).

Once you get that part the rest is easy to figure out, pretty much uses just those notes over and over again.

Somehow I can tell your a Flogging Molly fan.

That would be great! I have Finale Notepad so the notepad formate will work fine. Thanks a lot!

Ah! Thanks! That helps a bit.

This is excellent, sounds great, even for a beginner like myself.

1 problem though, when you repeat it for the 2nd verse the ending doesn't seem right I have been trying for 2 days now to figure it out by ear and I am failing to do so. this is what I have so far...

If anyone can help t would be appreciated.

With(b) the(a) blo(g)ssoms(a) on his early grave

Holy Cow, I think I got it. Can someone please verify this. If I did this is a complete break through for me.

I'll look at it when I get home. I gotta have the whistle in my hand to note it out.

Awesome, something for me to try to learn! (Mary had a little lamb is getting old! (Kidding)) As just starting, this looks like something I could learn.
