Ride But this year is
Ours Maybe tomorrow
We're gonna see Things we'd never
Believe I'll make you want me, you'll
See With only two reindeer.
Oh, what a sight As they take their first
Flight Oh, darling it's all in
Time And I will
I will I will
I will I will sleep sleep to-

In the bulk of the song, as well as the outro, the chords are
each quickly strummed six times, and all strummed downward.
Although not indicated, the last two strums out of every six
are mutes.
Looking for the tab, all I could find was "Bb, Dm, Eb, F." I
was hoping to find something a bit more involved than that,
so I decided to tab it myself. ANYWAY, this is my first tab,
and I hope you all like it. Thank-you, by the way, to
whomever did the first tab, as you made my life a lot easier
when I was getting started
Like I said, this is my first time tabbing, so feel free to
send me your questions, comments, or suggestions for change.
I'd love some audio feedback as well - so if you'd like, record
yourself and send it my way. I'd like to hear somebody better
than me play this.
Enjoy.

Fiona: I mean, he's a special - very, very special boy and he's
got a special soul, and I've wounded it.
Will: Oh, please, just shut up. You're wounding MY soul.
Pay for the light
But you may still slide
Baby, it's not your sleigh ride
But this year is ours
Maybe tomorrow
We're gonna see
Things we'd never believe
I'll make you want me, you'll see
The initial warning is free
With only two reindeer
Oh, what a sight
aas they take their first flight
Oh, darling it's all in time
And I will, I will, I will
Wait their return
Or make to the sky
Oh, what a sight beautiful
And I will
I will, I will, I will
I will sleep tonight
I will sleep tonight
