Default Christmas Songs

My parents are missionaries in the Philippines, and tomorrow is my mom's birthday. One of her favorite Christmas songs is The Little Drummer Boy. I recorded it and O Come, O Come Emmanuel for her today and posted them on a site. Thought I share them with you, also.

I'd like to listen to these, but I'm using a Mac powerbook, on which there's no such thing as right clicking. Anyone know how I can access the files?

Hold down the control key while you click, then choose "Download Link to Disk" from the contextual menu that appears. It will download the mpg files. They will play with iTunes, and probably RealPlayer or QuickTime player.

Here are the chords I used for drummer boy. I've since learned that it sounds even better when the low E string is lowered to D, and then play the high E minimimally. May choose to replace A7 with G (if in dropped D tuning, then the low G is on the fifth fret).

The Little Drummer Boy

[D] Come they told me
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[D] A new born king to see
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A] Our finest [D] gifts we bring
[G] Pa [D] rup a pum [A] pum
To lay be[D]fore the King
[G] Pa [D7] rup a pum [G] pum
Rup a pum [D] pum, rup a pum [A] pum
[D] So to honour Him
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A7] When we [D] come

[D] Baby Jesus
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[D] I am a poor boy too
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A] I have no [D] gifts to bring
[G] Pa [D] rup a pum [A] pum
That's fit to [D] give our King
[G] Pa [D7] rup a pum [G] pum
Rup a pum [D] pum, rup a pum [A] pum
[D] Shall I play for you
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A7] On my [D] drum?

[D]Mary nodded
Pa [A7] rup a pum pum
[D] The ox and lamb kept time
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A] I played my [D] drum for Him
[G] Pa [D] rup a pum [A] pum
I played my [D] best for Him
[G] Pa [D7] rup a pum [G] pum
Rup a pum [D] pum, rup a pum [A] pum
[D] Then He smiled at me
Pa [A7] rup a pum [D] pum
[A] Me and my [D] drum
