Christmas Chords

(ver. 1)
Barenaked Ladies
This is my first tab ever. I noticed that there were tabs available for the Barenaked
Christmas medley, but they all seemed to be for some sort of messy sounding live version.
figured these out from the album version. You know, the one with Sarah McLachlan. Like I 
this is the first time I've ever done this, so you'll have to listen to the song
use a bit of your own judgement to make up for any imperfections on my part. Enjoy.
