Greatest Time Of Year
Acoustic Hearts Of Winter

This is 95% correct.

Tuning: Standard EADGBe on both Aly, Aj, Guitar 3 and a bell
All of them have a capo on first fret to make the E-shaped chords sound as F. This is 
how our 2 girls play on their video on MTV. This is also a soundtrack to the movie Santa 
3.

* - means harmonics
