CATHERINE TYRELL [1]. AKA and see "O! Blame Not the Bard," "Kitty Tyrell." Irish, Slow Air (3/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. There are several versions of this old song, some more closely related musically than others, and some quite different. O'Neill prints two versions, and others can be found in O'Farrell and Bunting.
