Coming Round The Mountain Tin Whistle Sheet Music
A traditional children's folk song. The sheet music is in the key of G and can be played on most tin whistles including the D which is the most popular of all tin whistles.

Coming 'Round The Mountain is a classic American folk song that has been passed down through generations. The lively, repetitive tune originated in the late 19th century and its origins can be traced back to the American South, where it was commonly sung as a play-party or dance song. Though the exact writer is unknown, it is believed to have roots in African American spirituals and work songs. The song describes a journey, likely along a mountain road or railroad, and the anticipation of something approaching, whether a train, wagon, or people traveling by foot.
The repetitive chorus of "coming 'round the mountain" creates a sense of steady motion and momentum as travelers march in sync along their route. Additional lighthearted verses about sights seen along the way, such as "to see the Jacks and Jills," make it a participatory and engaging tune for children and adults alike. The song evokes nostalgia for a simpler time in America when communities would come together in song and dance.
Though details may vary, the core of the song lies in the refrain about an impending arrival and the infectious spirit it creates. Coming 'Round The Mountain continues to be performed widely at folk festivals, camps, and gatherings as both a link to the past and upbeat declaration of what lies ahead.
