The Holiday Song Acoustic Chords

   
Classic song by a great band.

I just strum the intro, muting most of the strings. Sometimes I'll allow the B string to 
ring out open and the intro sounds more full. The rest of the song is very simple to 
play and I hope you enjoy doing so!

Verse:

Well sit right down my wicked son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son
