... sleep in heav-en-ly

Silent Night, Holy Night

Sheperds quake,

At the sight.

Glories stream from

Heaven above,

Heavenly Hosts sing Alleluia,

Christ the Savior is born!

Christ the Savior is born!

Silent Night

Christmas is coming, did you think to the little guitar demo, near the christmas tree,

all your family around would request (I'm thinking to beginners) ?

Playing the last death riff of a 'killer metallic group' with your grand-parents

is maybe not the best to do ...

As many of you requested, here is the classical christmas hit 'silent night'.

This version is simpler than the others you can find at nevada's ftp site.

(it is maybe not exact, but it sounds well).
