Hi Frank,
I'm sure you can figure it out yourself, but maybe RTTTL can give you some inspiration? I have a small RTTTL playback program that I could send you via PM for testing.

Kind regards

I found examples of RTTTL sound here: e.g., Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer:

EDIT:
I should perhaps clarify that I only mean the storage format adapted for PicoMites as DATA lines: e.g.,
Tune1:
Data "Jingle Bells:d=4,o=5,b=170"
Data "B,B,B,P,B,B,B,P,B,D6,G.,8A,2B.,8P,C6,C6,C6."
Data "8C6,C6,B,B,8B,8B,B,A,A,B,2A,2D6"
Data ""

encodes this:
