Description
In this series of three lessons, we'll learn to play an acoustic fingerstyle arrangement of the song, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
This version of song centers around a chord progression and fingerpicking pattern which serve as a foundation for singing the song. Also, a short melody riff occurs at the beginning of the song, and in between each verse.
In this segment, you will see and hear the song being played, with close up left and right hand views. In the next segments, we'll look at the song details, and the melody riff details more thoroughly.
GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN
God rest ye merry
Gentlemen, let
Nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
