God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen / We Three Kings by Barenaked Ladies
interpretted by
This version of the song was given to fan club members a few years ago. Sarah Mclachlan sings with them. The cool thing about this song, instumentally, is the bass line. Unfortunately, i do not play bass. So, i did not tab it. Get this song off napster while you can... Listening to the song helps a lot in getting the stumming pattern. There are a few minor variations here and there, but this is the gist of it. Please feel free to make changes to this and repost.
(quick hopping beat) (capo 5, all chords relative to capo)
