Happy Christmas (War is Over)

Post by jojo321 »

ok this song has one part that im really confused on how to pull it off

according to the tab

A-sequence 002220 002200 002230 002220
So this is Ch....
Bm-sequence 224432 224422 224452 224432
And what ....
E-sequence 022200 022100 024100 022100
Another year...
A-sequence 002230 002220 002200 002220
And a new one ...


the part i dont get how to do is the Bm switch from 224422 to 224452 and then back to 224432
any ideas?

I just don't even play the high e for that part. or the low e, I just do the 4 middle strings. It sounds the same really, and less hassel.

Hey Ranting you wouldn't happen to have an MP3 of you playing Happy Christmas? I was thinking of learning this song.
