Hey everyone,
This is a great Christmas song by Leon Thomas III and Vali. The song has three
main parts: Intro/Verse Chorus and Bridge Section and is in the key of A minor. In
the video I saw, Leon plays the intro/verse section with fingerpicking and the
rest is regular strumming.
Intro/Verse Section (Remember this section is picked with you fingers. It may be
difficult at first but you will get it with practice.)
