I was waiting for my computer to finish some work and though I'd do this during the wait. It's a simple version that might appeal to beginners. Towards the end I showed 2 ways to play a couple of measures. Pick either one. It's not possible to play both at the same time.

The E lever lowers the 2nd string a half-step.

About the measures with alternate ways of playing.... Pleay either the 3s or the 10s.

Hope someone finds this useful.

I may write and post a harmonized version later if anyone wants it.

Mr. Shephard, a harmonized version of "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" would fit the bill just nice. I wish I could get ahold of some Tab to "O Holy Night" as it is a favorite of my 89 yr. old Mother. I hope someone will be kind enough to Tab it out and Post it here.

The Buddy Emmons course "Christmas Sounds of the Steel Guitar" has the tab for many of the old standard Christmas songs if still available including O Holy Night. I've used this course many times. Jerry Maranville
