The melody of Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee runs 238 notes across 32 bars, 2:03 long in C at 140 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.
