A Chet-Style Rudolph

Hey fellow IGers! T'is the season once again so let's sink our teeth into another good ol' holiday classic. This month's lesson is comprised of a Chet Atkins-esque finger style arrangement of Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer. The most important thing to keep in mind when nailing down a song like this is the melody verses bass line independence. With each chord change, there's two notes that will consistently bounce back and forth, the lowest root and fifth of each "chord". This, combined with the overlying melody line will make you sound like an entire band with just two hands. So let's do it!
