iamthatiam.sed

s/I/c /g
s/AM/d /g
s/THAT/e /g

Then I executed the iamthatiam.sed on the terminal and with pipeline I created a txt file

sed -f iamthatiam.sed iamthatiam.txt > iati-out.txt

iata-out.txt output:

wrap.sh

cat << END
 
@head {
    \$time_sig 4/4
    \$tempo 80
}

@body {
    @channel 1 {
        \$patch 14
        \$octave 8
        \$length 16

END

sed -f iamthatiam.sed iamthatiam.txt

cat << END
 
    }
}

END

And this will create the .mid file:

bash wrap.sh | midge -o iamthatiam.mid

Here is the final audio file:
