If I'm right.. you still need to overblow the 6th hole and overdraw the 7th in a major tuned diatonic harp... on the bridge, here's a tab: (play it using a C# harp).
well maybe I'm wrong... I'm not getting this from a written score, only a midi file... but sounds like the original.
I preffer the 4th position version, I like the blow bends it uses, but you need a Low F# harp to play in Eb and sound good... But you can use a G harp an play it in E.
