notes:

8* is a blow bend on the 8 hole, creating an Eb note. For more information on blow bending, there are a variety of websites you can check.

the other parts of this song are also playable on a diatonic harp, but employ the use of tongue-blocking and overblowing.. perhaps in the future, though, I will post up the tab for that.

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
