Hey kathrynt!

Or anyone else who has the Music Clue... I've worked out the melody line to "John Barbour" off of Something Beautiful*, but damned if I can figure out what this melody's key is supposed to be. I want to say that B flat is the tonic, but I just don't know! Input, anyone? I thought that if I could get the melody line that'd help me figure out the chords, but so far, my guesses as to what chords would go with these notes have been wrong.

C    D    D   C Bb C    D   C
What ails you, my daughter dear?

Bb   Bb    C    C   A  Bb
Your eyes, they are so dim

Bb   A   G   F F D    G   G
Have you had any sore sickness,

Bb Bb  A    G   G    F    G G
Or yet been sleepin' with a man?

Bb C   D   D   C Bb C   D   C
I have not had any sore sickness,

Bb  Bb Bb  C      C  A   Bb
But I know what's ailin' me

Bb  Bb  A    G  F  D   G    G
I'm thinkin' of my own true love

Bb Bb    A   G  F   G
He plows the ragin' sea

Bb Bb    Bb  C  D   Bb
He plows the ragin' sea
