Chords for 'Wonderful Christmastime' Paul McCartney Acoustic Guitar Lesson

Hey Guitar Buddies, it's time for some Christmas songs again
so let's take a look at Paul McCartney Wonderful Christmas Time
we'll start with the verse and chorus _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ okay nice chord sequence
so for the verse and intro I play a B
_ _ _ and then on top of [D#m] that I play a B major [B] 7
so I'm playing on the top four strings _ 9 11 11 11
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ then a B again
[E] _ _ on the top part of the G minor
so that's on the top three strings _ 13 12 11 _
_ [B] so then _ _ _
[G#m] _ _ _ [B] B again
_ [F#m] _ _
I'm playing the top part of an F with an added [Cm] _ 13th
_ that's D sharp F sharp C sharp
_ on the top three strings 8 7 9
_ [B] then B and B again
so F sharp B D sharp _ 11 12 11
okay _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ [F#] _ so [B] the [E] chorus is C sharp minor [C#m] 7 _ [A#m] _ _
F7 [C#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ C sharp minor [G#m] 7 G G sharp minor 7
_ _ [E] _ _ E A9 so it's just an A with an open B string
[B] B
[G#] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
and we've also got a bridge section which is _
_ _ [C#m] _ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [C#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A#] okay and back into the kind of chorus and verse
so I'm just playing for the the choir of children singing their [B] song
_ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [B] _ B G sharp minor 7 [C#m] C sharp [F#] minor 7 _ F7
[B] repeat. _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [G#] Just over the ding-dongs I say [B] ding-dong.
Just a B _ and then we go to [E] an E.
_ _ _ [C#m] C sharp minor 7.
_ _ [E] _ Back to an E _ and then back to a [B] B. _ _
And _ _ then that little melody comes in back on the verse chords.
_ _ So I can play the chord and the
melody by playing a B then playing _ four six four. _
[G#m] So four on the G string, six on the G string,
four on the B string _ and hold that [B] chord. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Okay and the second time in the bridge it's slightly
shorter.
We've got _ _ _ [C#m] just [C#m] the same. _
[B] _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ [B] _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [D#m] And back into the rest of the song.
So that second [G#m] bridge just the same [F#] four chords to [B] start
but then we're going ding _ -dong.
[E] _ _ [B] On the ding-dongs I'm just playing a B to an E.
_ _ _ _ [F#]
And on the last one just an F sharp 7. _ _ _
[N] So that's just a nice kind of acoustic version of the song.
It's a great fun one to play and a good one to learn coming up to Christmas.
So thanks for watching buddies.
Cheers! _ _ _ _
