     Slide to each of these chord shapes up and down the neck.
     You can add a percussive slap between chords on
     the low E string if you are fingerpicking.
     If not you can just strum the same shapes.

happy golden days of  yore
Em                       Bm
Faithful friends who are dear to us

Through the years   we all will be to-gether
E        C#madd9     F#m
  If the Fates a-llow
E      C#m     F#m           G#      C#madd9
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
    A+              F#m          B         E
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
