Tab
Note this is the acompaianemnt to the song not nessicarily the main melody, (this is what the harp player should be playing). Listen to the song to get the upbeat feel /timing
I've tabed it as each of the 12 bars,
again listen to the song for the timing, its very important 

My noation is as follows
3 (3blow)
-3 (3draw)
-3' (3 draw 1/2 step bend each extra dash eg -3'' is another 1/2 step bend)
/34/ is a warble
1T4 is a toungeblocked octave

a bracketed note eg
-4(5) is one where when playing the 1st note let a  little of the bracketed note in.

try to roll off the -1's fast
So here it goes:
Intro:
-4(5), -4(5), -4(5)
bar1:
          -4, -4', -3', 4, -3', -2, -2''
bar2:
-4, -4', -3', 4, -3', -2, -2''
bar 3:
-2, -2, -2 -2'' -1
bar4:
-2, -2, -4(5), -4(5), -4(5)
bar 5:
-4, -4', -3', 4, -3', -2, -2''
bar6
-4, -4', -3', 4, -3', -2, -2''
bar7:
-2, -2, -2 -2'' -1
bar8:
-2, -2, -1, -2'', -1
bar9:
-1T4, 1T4, -3'', -2', -1
bar10:
6, -5, -4, -/34/, 4, -3', -2
bar11: (this is the same EVERY time)
-2, -3', 4, 4
bar 12:
-2, -2'', -1, -1
