(This Tab can be used in Chorus and Verse, the main Baseline can be derived from it as well. 3rd vrese can be varied with strum once and pause. The last Chorus is varied with the underlying melodie from the Bridge section which is from another popula Xmas song) The Verse3 section you can vari as you like, I propose a strum once per line. ************************************ [Chorus]

The dogs at your front door

And all that dwell within your gates

Em
We'll wish you ten times more
