In response to the request for Christmas songs, here is an arrangement
of "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear". The song is in 3/4 time and
written here in the key of C. The symbols below the tab are for
timing purposes: one and two and three and, etc.
^ . ^ . ^ .
The chords all are pretty basic. As far as the F and F6 go, I find
it easier to use the thumb to play the 6th string/1st fret rather
than using the barre F. It makes for a much smoother transition
when changing from C to F and back to C again. Enjoy...
