Little Drummer Boy - guitar chords and comments

Lyrics without distraction HERE

This is originally a Czech tune, in 1941 translated into english by Katherine Davis. Henry Oronati and Harry Simeone both credited, because of significant arrangement ... the first gave it to the latter, because the first one's record company refused it (!) and master crooner Bing Crosby made it a standard Christmas Choral in 1958. In 1982, he rerecorded it in a "planned happening" with master glam rocker David Bowie. Two master voices then performed an unforgettable version.
The song is a little bit difficult. Mainly, it's a plain tango rhythm ... one, twothreefour; one,twothreefour; but it's punctuated. I can't figure it out for you. Listen to some various versions ... rum pa pum pum!
