What we're going to do is a chord melody style playing of this song.
We're just we're not going to do any kind of
Fancy [Ab] finger picking or anything like [Bm] that.
We're just going to play a chord [C] like this and
Then we'll play a melody [G] one note at a time and when it comes out all together
We'll get the song okay, so the first part of it is going to start with a C chord like [C] this
Now I'm using a regular guitar pick and we're going to strum the chords downward just like this
And then we're going to use notes to fill in the melody okay, so the first melody will be
silent night Holy night
You know how it goes okay, [Eb] so it goes like this
okay, now all [Gm] I did there was I played a C [C] chord and
Then I held on to the chord pick my
second finger up went to an a which is [A] right there and
Then played an open [G] G, and then I played [C] the chord back to the C chord again
Like that very simple now the next part is [F] all is [G] calm and that will be G
G again, and then an open B note
Just like that that's all oh
Very easy next is all is bright, and that will be a C chord [C] twice
Then an open G note
[G]
That is all is bright.
Okay.
[N] Now the next phrase would be round yon virgin which would be F to F chord
[F]
twice and
then C note C [C]
first fret B string open [B] B a
Which [A]
is at the second [Gb] fret on the G string again that [F] was F F
[C] C [B] B
and then you [G] go back to your
[C] Silent night or holy night phrase which is mother and child the same as mother and child which is C a
[A]
Open [G] G [C] and C I
Think you're getting ideas very easy to do this, okay
Right now.
[Fm] Holy infant is the same phrase as as we did with the F chord of round [Gb] yon virgin, which [F] is F
F
[C] C
[B]
B a
[A] And then tender and [Ab] mild same as the first chord [C] progression C a
[A] [G]
G
[C] C
As you may notice [Gb] we use that [F] phrase quite a bit in this song.
It's repeated [C] the most
[E] Now we're getting to the near the end of the song [Ab] and we're going to sleep in heavenly peace.
That's going to be [G] G
G chord G
F first [Ab] fret E [F] string D
[E]
third fret [D] B string
Open B.
[B]

[Em]
Peace is very easy.

We're gonna have to use a couple of low notes.
We've got [F] C chord where it goes [C] sleep
