Jerry K Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 'The Christmas Song' Dbmaj7 Ebm7 Fm7 Gbmaj7 Fm7 Ebm7 Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Dbma7 Abm7 Db7b9 Gbmaj7 Gbm7 B9 B7 Jack Frost nipping at your nose Dbmaj7 B7 Bbm7 Gm7 C7b9 Yuletide carols being sung by a choir Fmaj7 F#m7 B7b9 Emaj7 C#m7 Ebm9 Ab13 And folks dressed up like Eskimos.......everybody Dbmaj7 Ebm7 Fm7 Gbmaj7 Fm7 Ebm7 knows a turkey and some mistletoe Dbmaj7 Abm7 Db7b9 Gbmaj7 Gbm7 B9 Help to make the season bright Dbmaj7 B7 Bbm7 Gm7 C7b9 Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow Fm7 E7 Ebm7 Ab13 Dbma7 Will find it hard to sleep tonight A#m7 Am7 Abm7 Db7b9 Gbmaj7 Gdim They know that Santa's on his way Abm7 Db7b9 Gbmaj7 Gb13 He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh Gb+ Gbm7 B7 Emaj7 E7 And every mother's child is gonna spy Eb Ab+ To see if reindeer really know how to fly Dbmaj7 Ebm7 Fm7 Gbmaj7 Fm7 Ebm7 And so I'm offering this simple phrase Dbmaj7 Abm7 Db7b9 Gbmaj7 Gbm7 B7 To kids from one to ninety-two Dbmaj7 B7 Bbm7 Gm7 C7b9 Although it's been said many times, many ways Fm7 Bbm7 Ebm9 Ab13 Db6 Merry Christmas to you Unfortunately the bulletin board software does not preserve the relationship between chord and lyric too well but that is what I was playing. The interesting thing in this tune is the seeming chromatic movement in the area: " a choir, and folks dressed up like Eskimos". There are two II-V progressions, one starting from Gm7 and the next begins a half step down from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerohead Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Well I have a year to practice it and I think it's gonna take the better part of it before I can play it. Hopefully next Christmas I can return the favor and play it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 T and T (aka Dr. T and the Gringo). My friend Jorge, whom I met on a guitar forum, and I just physically met when he came to California from Venezuela and we had a jam on New Year's eve. Both had our tone hats on. I think you can tell that besides the effect of the vino, we just had a genuinely good time. Me on a J-45 custom and him on a Martin D-15M. Even with the sound hole of the J-45 facing away from the camera, it holds it's own against the sound hole facing the camera. My tone hat didn't prevent me from breaking a string at the end. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXiDqrlZYjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duluthdan Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 That was the most luscious sounding guitar! Wow, I never would've looked twice at a 12 fret 200 before hearing this. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry K Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I played a 12 fret 200 at Music Villa a few years ago. Beautiful sound. Wish I had bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duluthdan Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 SJ200 Fan - that sure is a nice guitar - strummer extraordinaire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ200Fan Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Thanks Deluth Dan. Where this guitar really shines is strumming with a pick versus the above finger picking. If you go to the string "Any 12 fret FANS?" in this acoustic forum I posted a video of some general strumming and the sound is really great (in part because my iPhones' microphone likely can record strumming better than finger picking). Thanks again and have a great week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
