How to play the The Night Before Christmas melody on guitar

The melody of The Night Before Christmas by Steven Curtis Chapman runs 265 notes across 72 bars, 3:50 long in D at 96 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? The Night Before Christmas chords and lyrics.
