Aly and Aj
I'll be home for Christmas
Acoustic Nights Of Winter
2006 Hollywood Records
In this song, you will learn your plucking skills. This song is very difficult to play
you only stucked into a standard EADGBe tuning, that's why I decided to tune it in drop D
get the lower D#. Both Aly and Aj have a great plucking skills. Only a few girls can do
they can. They can also play in Drop D tuning.
Aj will be the lead soloist here, she's idle in almost all parts except the solo
I am lazy to tab the piano part in chorus, you can figure it out
Tuning: Drop D, both Aly and Aj
Chords used: (drop D only)
