"Last Christmas" by Wham
Available on almost every Christmas album
Transcribed by Hamish McCool
This is based on an acoustic version James Dean Bradfield of the Manic
Street Preachers played as a one-off for TFI Friday on British TV many
years ago. I don't have a VIDEO of the performance (yes, it is that old
) but here are the chords he used and it actually can sound quite good
played by just an acoustic guitar. Or at least as good as any other Wham
song could.
Standard tuning - E A D G B e
Dsus2 Dsus2 - x x 0 2 3 0
Last Christmas...
Bm Bm - x 2 4 4 3 2
The very next day...
Emadd9 Emadd9 - 0 2 4 0 0 0
This year...
Asus2 Asus2 - x 0 2 2 0 0
I'll give it...
And just keep going - every verse and chorus follows the same chord
sequence. You can play fart about with this song such as playing Em instead
of or before adding Emadd9 or instead of playing Asus2 try
x 0 7 6 0 0 and changing it to an Asus4 type chord with
x 0 7 7 0 0 and back again, etc.
Just make sure you get your snog under the mistletoe.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official WHAM tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
