Taylor Swift - Christmases When You Were Mine (Guitar Instrumental Cover)
This is my (instrumental, guitar only) rendition of Christmases When You Were MIne by Taylor Swift, the hard way. Hope you like this one. I'm a huge fan of her. Love her and all her music. I know it's a bit too fast, but you can expect me to get back to this one. Whether it be a re-try or a tutorial (planning on doing one soon).
Please comment and subscribe, it would be much appreciated.
Sorry for the mistakes.

I have been working on this song for quite a while, took me about two weeks to transcribe, but a couple of months to learn it properly with the fiddly bits that occur in the song.
I really like playing this song, since it's a bit of easy fingerstyle.
The chords are quite simple.
I saw a variety of people trying to play this, and I thought I could give it a shot as well.
I messed up about 8 times before I managed to record a remotely good rendition of this awesome song.
So this video illustrates how I think this song should be played!
I have a slower (close to original tempo) version up on SounCloud here: / christmases-when-you-were-mine
