Here is a little clip i made real quick on a crappy guitar with a crappy mic. I'm pretty sure this is the way dave plays it. I have a video of him and tim playing it and i can match up with him perfectly. I tried to slow it down for you at the end of the clip. Hope it helps some.

read the song wrong, sorry. It said x-mas in the title, and I read it fast, and I read x-mas, so I thought he meant x-mas song, ignore my post
