     Happy Xmas (War is Over)
     John & Yoko / Plastic Ono Band with the Harlem Community Choir
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Written by: Lennon/Ono
Released as a non-album single in 1971

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: soprano C

I transposed this tab to G (a little easier to play, at least for me). 
To match the original recording put on one of those cute ukulele 
capos on the 2nd fret or transpose this tab up +2 to the key of A.
