LYRICS
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 pow'r
When we were gone astray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
In Bethlehem, in Israel
This blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
The which His Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Fear not then, said the Angel
Let nothing you affright
This day is born a Savior
Of a pure Virgin bright
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's pow'r and might
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
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 pow'r
When we were gone astray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

Thank you James , Merry Xmas
Turning 60, getting a guitar, and taking your lessons in 2015 are some of my thoughts for 2015..Learning The Secret Of Life & Fire & Rain and maybe taking classes at The Old Town School of Folk Music with Ed Holstein, online with you and online with Liv..now that is a hatrick!! Merry Christmas to you and your family, JT and looking forward to seeing you 100 times in several continents -especially Europe!
Paula Hootman Good for you Paula...I'm 57 and never too late especially if you love what you are doing.
Muchas gracias James. Feliz Navidad para ti y toda tu familia.
Saludos desde Madrid (Spain)

Merry Christmas James
Hi James! See you again on 24 April in Padua (Italy). Merry Christmas from Venice!
Damn that's sweet James. Really love picking up the guitar and working on your "lesson" videos. Thanks and Merry Xmas!
The fake fingernails are a gas to use. I love 'em. Can't keep them on a long time or a fungus develops underneath them. Fine version James of an old classic. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good whatever.
Merry Christmas to you and yours and that fab guitar that sounds soooooo good. W'eve got our tickets for Bournemouth. Hoozah!!
Mighty fine fingerpicking James! Would so enjoy you covering Dan Fogelbergs "Leader of the Band". I bet you could put a special twist on it. Thank you kindly for sharing...
2018 here :) merry christmas
Merry Christmas James!
Beautifully Done. Bravo!
Hi James,I'd like to see you do "You Can Close Your Eyes",a very special and personal song for me.I used to play it,but I now have essential tremor (bummer) however seeing your technique is still interesting to me..................................
If you look closely at the the video you'll notice that he has six fingers on his left hand - that's how he is able to play all the strings that he does.
Does anyone have tab for this version of the song or know where I can get it?
Where's the "LOVE" icon?
Any chance there is tab for this? :D I love everything you have EVER done (like I do Chet), and I would pay a pretty penny for a book of tabbed Christmas songs by you.
Have you checked out Pete Huttlinger's website? He shows tabulature that is easier to follow for armatures like me. It's hard for me to follow what your doing.
Hey, have you tried a nylon guitar? Just curious
