Default Partial tab of O Holy Night

I'm figuring out by ear the tab to O Holy Night from an old classical guitar quartet CD I have. The first 20 or so measures are pretty decent. The last two or three measures I just put the melody notes in for now so ignore them. I think it flows pretty nicely, but I haven't been practicing my barre chords enough so the V position chord change the the VIII C chord is slower than it should be, so this is why I'm not posting a mp3 of it yet. I also changed another section from a open first position measure to the V position because it just feels better, but that is a little off tempo right now too, so I have two excuses for not posting an mp3

O Holy Night BMP (corrected download)

But here's the PDF of the tab for you all to download and try out. I'm looking for comments on the flow, after you've played it a bit. There's no way I can finish this by this holiday, but I plan on working on it and other holiday song arrangements for next season.

Thanks, but the font was all messed up on the version I downloaded, at least with my versions of Acrobat, including Acrobat Pro.

What I want to know is can you tab the slurs and microtones that guy did in the comedy version on the other thread?

This PDF needs the guitarpro5 font installed on the system that displays it.

If you really want to display it, go to http://www.guitar-pro.com/en/index.php?pg=download install the demo and the pdf will display correctly.

I made a jpg out of it for those who do not want to do that.

Thanks Jerry. Boy that's weird. I never would have thought of that. I assumed a PDF is a PDF. I put it up in BMP format, see if that works. It does look kinda purdy though with all those # doesn't it, LOL.

O Holy Night BMP version
