    Well here are the chords. You probably have them already. I didn't get a chance to check these yet, so accuracy is not guaranteed.

    Thanks Jim. That's a good start! I was not familiar with that web site. I am going to check it out.

    Still if anyone wants to make my life(and tashook's) simpler keep looking for TAB to this,

    Merry Christmas to all of my Mando Brothers and Sisters!

    I'm no tab guru or music writer, but I use tabs.
    Attached is a rough draft of the notes. It will get you started.

    I've attached a PDF.

    Like I said, it's basically the melody notes. Not 100% complete
    but it will give you the idea.

    Best wishes for a Merry Christmas
