Song:

The port of Amsterdam is originally composed by Jacques Brel. Later it was performed by David Bowie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uPZIG5BHD4

I play it on a C-harp in Paddy-richter tuning and the tabs are for c-paddy.
You can play it on a normal C-harp, but all the 3-blow notes must be played as a 3-inhale with bending.
Success!
