"The First Noel" is a classic Christmas carol set in 3/4 time. Songs in 3/4 time are often referred to as waltzes, and when we play them we have to strum and count in sets of 3 ( 1 - 2 - 3, 1 - 2 - 3 ). I'm playing this song in the key of C because I wanted it to be relatively easy for beginners to play it, but you might notice this is not the best key for me to be singing it in, haha! Learning how to play in different keys is a valuable skill, and something I teach in my book (read an excerpt at http://www.musicalmama.com/letsplay ).

Chords Used: C, Em, F, G, and Am
Strum Used: down (1) - rest (and) - down (2) - up (and) - down (3) - up (and)
