Thanks to those who responded to my posting of a traditional Scots tune.
Here's a traditional Irish jig (6/8 time) with suggested chords.
Play part 1 twice then part 2 twice. The note marked with * should be
played only when going into part 2; otherwise (when repeating part 1) play
the two notes in the Intro bar. Try it: you'll see what I mean.

Part 2 is mostly played with a half-barre at fret 7.
