Christmas Canon Rock Tab by Trans-siberian Orchestra


Since I see people trying to put this tab online, and wanting a full version, I haven?t 
the time before, but now I have some free time so I was working on this song, so here is 
I came up with.

This repeats twice on the 2nd repeat there is a little harmonic in there, you can find 
easily by listening. On 2nd repeat the last part slows down gradually and then ends on G-14.

This should be 100% correct, I checked some of the taps in powertab to see if they 
right.  Enjoi this masterpiece by TSO, it?s one of my favorites to play.
