Hi there and Happy Holidays:)
**READ NOTE**
Because there are different ways of singing this song I found a link to the version
of the song that I know and how I tabbed it. It's Ann Murray singing- and other
than a key change she does just for 2 verses in the middle- to be fancy I guess;) it's
the same. It will give those who think this tab is worth a 1 star rating a heads up-
"Hey! This is tabbed to THIS version of "Away in A Manger" and it's good, lol!

Feel free to send me a link of how you know the song and I'll tab that version too;)
But this tab with that link- 5 stars ;) lol! (And never do these 'Low raters' ever
come back to change their rating after I've explained this to them on their wall. How
bah-humbug of them!!
