After 2 years of trying to learn this song, missing the Christmas deadline and then forgetting it all by the next December, I finally did it! Its such a jazzy song and so fun to play, but the chords are like nothing I've played before so it was a bit of a challenge. This is Nat King Cole's version of the song - it's the best version and that's an objective fact.

No tabs here yet! But here is the midi video I used to learn the song:
   • The Christmas Song - Piano Instrument...  
The only parts where I deviate from this midi are the riffs after "Jack frost nipping at your nose" (F A# F, C#, D# A, C#, D#, C# F) and after "to kids from one to ninety-two" (C#, D#, F#, A, C#, D# F). This is also definitely a Chromatic kalimba situation, at least in the way that I'm playing it, so keep that in mind!
