Subject: Please help me identify this song.

I heard this song in the '70s I think. Recently it has been stuck in my head. I have tried everything I know to find its name, but to no avail. I am hoping someone here knows it. I have listed the notes with their approximate lengths. There is a possibility the song was an instrumental. It had a rather modern march type of sound to it ... possibly something to do with the 1976 bicentennial??? I am not for sure. Thank you for your help.

C4(dotted half), G3(dotted eighth), C4(sixteenth) /
F4(dotted eighth), E4(sixteenth), C4(half), F4(eighth), E4(eighth) /
C4(dotted half), E4(dotted eighth), C4(sixteenth) /
G4(dotted half tied to eighth), G4(eighth) /
A4(quarter), G4(dotted eighth), G4(sixteenth), A4(quarter), G4(dotted eighth), G4(sixteenth) /
A4(eighth), G4(eighth), F4(eighth), E4(eighth), D4(quarter), C4(dotted eighth), G4(sixteenth) /
A4(quarter), G4(dotted eighth), G4(sixteenth), A4(quarter), G4(dotted eighth), G4(sixteenth) /

Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.

If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:

1. Record your audio here.
2. You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
3. copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]

If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
