2 Christmas Songs

[Robert]

Here are 2 Christmas songs that I've been teaching some guitar students. I know I should have all the chords written out and there should be an accompanying video where I show how to play it. I will try and get that done some day... but for now, hopefully you can get something out of these nice Xmas tunes.

The are both in Acrobat PDF format.

1. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas (PDF)
2. The Christmas Song (PDF)

I'll try and make these into a video and Guitar Pro file some day...

Oops, I had a couple of errors in there... I'll fix and upload later.

Are you guys interested in a video lesson for one of these songs?

 

[sunvalleylaw]

Yes. I was just going to download the PDF. I will check back!

Robert, can you teach me White Christmas? i want to surprise gram.

that was her and my grandfather's song... he served in both theaters in wwii in the navy... he told her that whenever she heard that song, he was with her.

it would make her cry in a happy way, and i would love to do that for her... she's 89, and one of the Dearest. i would do anything for her.

I could write down the chords for that song. It's hard to play the melody at the same time, but you can sing the words and melody as you play the chords.

 

[Childbride]

that would be really Waycool...

i'm also looking forward to coming back for the first two!

I just listened to Brian Setzer do a version of White Christmas on the way home tonight. Very Elvis/rockabilly version. Swingin! ude:

i used to listen to brian setzer at the continental club in austin.

the version i want to learn for gram is a bit more traditional, more along the way she would remember it from her young adulthood.

and Robert, thanks! i'm looking forward to learning the songs!
