White Christmas
tabbed by Michael Malkemus

This is the way I prefer to play it.  I think this key actually sounds better than A.  
alternate way with a capo is below.

[Piano Tab / Guitar with no capo]

Ab                Bbm   Eb
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
C#            Eb             Ab   Eb7
Just like the ones I used to know
          Ab        Ab7
Where the tree-tops glisten
    C#       C#m
And children listen
   Ab   Absus4 Ab       Eb     Bbm  Eb
To hear sleigh-bells in the snow

Ab                 Bbm   Eb
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
C#         Eb                 Ab  Eb
With every Christmas card I write
         Ab      Ab7   Ab  C#  C#m
May your days be merry and bright
        Ab       C#       Eb    Ab
And may all your Christmases be white

Or you can use a Capo on the first fret for an easier play

Cm = X35543 or X3101X
C9 = X32033 (I like the way C9 sounds w/ the G in the verse)

G                 Am    D
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
C             D             G    D7
Just like the ones I used to know
          G         C9
Where the tree-tops glisten
    C        Cm
And children listen
   G    C9     G            D    Am D
To hear sleigh-bells in the snow

G                 Am    D
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
C          D                G    D7
With every Christmas card I write
         G       C9    G   C  Cm
May your days be merry and bright
        G        C       D      G
And may all your Christmases be white
