Silent Night - Chet Atkins arrangement
Here's another holiday tune, a bit more serious than the last one I posted. This is my attempt at Chet's version of Silent night.

Bob,
Chet would be proud. This is the same as the original version you posted. I recognized it was Chet's arrangement as soon as I heard your playing. I transcribed it several years ago, and the tab in TablEdit format is available on the Fretted Instruments NYC web site (on the Chet Atkins page).
I still believe this is one of the finest arrangements of Silent Night I have heard. There may be some that are fancier, but this one is truly beautiful. Not only that, it's not that difficult to play !!

Really beautiful RB , don't now that I have ever heard a better arrangement or playing of Silent Night than that.
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
