Capo: 4

Artist: Orla Gartland Song: North Pole Bank Website: www.facebook.com/OrlaGartland This work is only the artists (version a) and then my own interpretation of the song (version b). All copyright to Orla - you can also find the chords and tabs on her Facebook-page. I will put in two different versions the first is the chord/strumming version without the little flicks in the start. Orla states that it's capo 4 and Chorus: C-G-Am-F Every other part: Am-C-F-G ================================= I, however, play it a little different. I see her having the capo on 4 on the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14-gjqhKIdA) but simply don't find the sound fitting on my guitar - for some wierd reason. Yes, I am in standard tuning (EADGBE). So usually I would go for "this version" when I play it: I think this sound pretty accurate: Capo 3 Intro Am C G F E|-------------------------------2---------------------| B|----2--2--------1--1-----------0---0---1-------------| G|----2--2--2-----0--0--0-------0-----0--2-------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------| A|-0-----0----2-3----3---------------------------------| E|-----------------------------3---------1-------------| Little nice flick E|--------------------| B|--------------------| G|--------------------| D|--------------------| A|----3--2--0---------| E|------------1--0----| Intro Am C G F E|-------------------------------2---------------------| B|----2--2--------1--1-----------0---0---1-------------| G|----2--2--2-----0--0--0-------0-----0--2-------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------| A|-0-----0----2-3----3---------------------------------| E|-----------------------------3---------1-------------| (Verse) Continues until #END OF FINGERSTYLE# where a single-strum G will be played directly after the fingerstyle C. Am C G F E|-------------------------------2---------------------| B|----2--2--------1--1-----------0---0-----1-1---------| G|----2--2--2-----0--0--0-------0-----0----2-2--2------| D|-----------------------------------------------------| A|-0-----0----2-3----3---------------------------------| E|-----------------------------3---------1---1---------| Where will he get those toys For all them girls and boys What is there for Santa Clause to do Hes feeling helpless now The cause of many a row These hard financial times affect him too The elves had had enough Less than minimum wage is tough So saint nick had sent them on their way With no one to assist, Bills longer than the naughty list (#END OF FINGERSTYLE#) G F (let ring) How on earth would poor Santa Clause pay

^EChildren all over the world, all countries, all races ^FWake up demember 25th with disappointed faces ^ENone of them with a clue what poor Saint Nick has been through ^FUnderneath the Christmas tree is an I.O.U

---Chorus---

^C/GSpare a thought for^G Santa Clause this year ^AmWont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates low low low ^FIts pretty hard to spread that Christmas cheer ^C/GHes trying to make it better, he goes through all the letters ^GMolly wants a dolly and John wants a tank ^AmWell thats all good and jolly kids, but my children there ^Fis just no money in the North Pole Bank

^AmA lot on Santas plate, ^CMrs. Clause says lose weight ^GBut all this wasnt good for sant^Fys head

^AmThat clunky old time sleigh, ^CWas really past its day ^Gso Santa clause he bought a Pors^Fhe instead

^AmBorrowed the money from Rud^Colf and now hes charging interest ^Grates, After being made ^Fredundant him and Nick no longe^Amr mates The systems falling apart, th^Ce children still in his heart, ^GOh where did this whole thing sta^Frt?

Em (eventually add pinky on 3rd fret, high e-string and release again) Children all over the world, all countries, all races

^FWake up demember 25th with disappointed faces ^EmNone of them with a clue what poor Saint Nick has been through ^FUnderneath the Christmas tree is an I.O.U

---Chorus---

^C/GSpare a thought for S^Ganta Clause this year ^AmWont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates low low low ^FIts pretty hard to spread that Christmas cheer ^C/GHes trying to make it better, he goes through all the letters ^GMolly wants a dolly and John wants a tank Am (eventually add pinky on Well thats all good and jolly kids, but my children ther^Fe is just no money in the North Pole Bank

^AmHe says get out of my way ^CSaid I need a drink ^GSits down with a lager and a mince pie and^F that man begins to think

*bridge*

^AmPuts the key in the ^Cignition and off he goes ^G The Porshe flies through th^Fe air as it snows and snows ^AmAnn wants a Barbie doll,^C Mary has one of those ^GThe brother of Ann has an action man ^Fbe sure to rob that while you can! ^AmThe fat boy down the road,^C he wants a rocking horse ^GDoes the boy next door to him have one of those ^Foh yes oh yes he does of course

^AmSatisfies the kiddies,^C with not a penny to pay, ^GMove over baby Jesus, ^Fhes the saviour of the day

^C/GSo we can all c^Gelebrate Christmas this year ^AmWont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates still quite low ^FBut its not hard to spread that Christmas cheer ^C/GHe tried to make it better, he went through all the letters ^GMolly wants a dolly and John wants a tank ^AmWell thats all good and jolly kids, ^Fbut my children there is just no money in the North Pole Bank
