MY OWN HOUSE WALTZ. AKA - "My Ain Hoose," "My Home" (Mo dhachaidh), "My Home Waltz," "Old Living Room Waltz." Scottish; Slow Air or Waltz (3/4 or 6/8 time). A Major [most versions]: A Major ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part) [Phillips]. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Laufman): AB (Kennedy, Laufman, Phillips, Raven): AABB (Brody): AA'BB' (Kaufman). The tune is an adaptation of a jig titled "John Bain's Sister's Wedding[1]" which can be found in Donald MacDonald's Collection of Quicksteps, Strathspeys, Reels, & Jigs (1828). The Gaelic song called "Mo dhachaidh" written by Malcolm MacFarlane of Paisley (1853-1931) used a slower tempo version of tune. The sentimental words tell of the composer’s love for hearth and home. Scottish versions after the turn of the 20th century are generally titled "My Home" (Mo dhachaidh) or "My ain hoose", and, in addition to the tempo change, have a slightly different second strain and feature a double tonic at the cadences. Phillips' version, in two keys, is simply a restatement of the same melodic material in the subdominent key.
