Hey guys, I was looking at the Christmas Song so I thought I would add my transcription of it and how I am positive Dave plays the main licks, as fumbling through the parts that others have written out sounds weird.
Intro and main lick (Timmy plays a similar thing behind here but he hits a couple of notes differently that wind up coming out over top on the Luther College disc, be sure to let the notes ring out)

That is how I play it at least, feel free to give some feed back, the song is fairly straight forward and the guitar licks are repetitive so you shouldn't get lost playing along with the track.
