How to play the Happy Xmas melody on guitar

The melody of Happy Xmas by John Lennon runs 165 notes across 30 bars, 1:49 long in A at 99 beats per minute. The tab sits almost entirely in the first two frets, one note at a time — no chords to barre and no strumming pattern to keep up with. A piano backing track plays the chords and bass underneath, so the line you are learning sounds like the record even at half speed.

Prefer to strum and sing it instead? Happy Xmas chords and lyrics.
