Deck The Halls Version 2

Fingerings

This one is a little harder, but notice that you still have a pattern. Your 4th finger should try to stay on the B string throughout all of this measure. Anchor it well, and you will be able to move your 2nd and 3rd fingers with ease through the bass notes on the Low E string and A string.

Fingerings

Remember when we talked about keeping your 3rd finger anchored in the first version? This applies here too. What you have are constant bass notes, played twice in each measure, using your 3rd finger. By keeping your 3rd finger as an anchor, you can move around the fretboard much easier. Notice once again that you will only be using your 1st, 2nd, and 4th fingers on the other strings.

Fingerings

This measure is mostly walking the fretboard. You can choose not to use the fingerings here if they don’t work for you. This is really just about whatever is most comfortable for you here. Don’t forget the rests in each measure.

What you have below is a recap of everything you played.
Let’s see how you play it without the fingerings. Did they
help you or hurt you?
