Pretty brave to take on the "Christmas Don't Be Late" song... I mean, The Chipmunks have owned that tune since I was a kid. |

It ruins the humor if I have to explain it but... the last time was a mistake, this time it was on purpose.
.
I could have used a winky-face emoticon but I didn't want my man card to be taken away.
.
Looking forward to the next tune. |

Incredible.
I MUST have a tab of your arrangement.
Seriously.
That is top notch. I know it won't sound the same in regular pitch, but I bet I could get a similar sound on my Pacemaker 12 string. |

These are some great songs, for the best time of the year. :) |

(G)You better watch out, (C)Better not cry
(G)Better shut your mouth, (D)Stop tellin those lies
(C)Santa Claus is (D)coming to town(G)
He’s got a big list And you’re on it twice
But he’s gonna find out, That you’re rolling dice
Santa Clause is coming to town
(C)He knows where you’ve been (G)sleeping
(C)And he knows who it’s been (G)with
(C)You really don’t want to(G) piss him (E7)off
He’s a(A) nasty son of a(D) bitch
(G)Get your wallet out, (C)Pay all the bribes
(G)Grease a few palms, (D)Go to church a few times
(C)Santa Clause is (D)coming to (G)town
Blistering lead break, (on uke)
He knows that you’ve been drinking
And he knows you’ve smoked a few
You better save him some of both
He just might like some too
So tonight’s the big night, the sleigh’s flying high
Like a Four Seven Heavy, Up in the sky
Santa Clause is coming to town |

In the meantime, enjoy this one:
