This is the best version on Ultimate Guitar. I wouldn't be surprised if you took this from Cyberfret's little lesson and chords webpage (https://www.cyberfret.com/guitar-chords/jingle-bell-rock-chords/2/) for this song. Either way, it saved me from writing this all up to share since I was just about to. Cheers!

I went through the many tabs for this on UG and find this is the BEST VERSION..even better and more accurate than the Official one. Two small touches I could suggest is an Augmented A7 (basically just add an F note) on the last chord of the verse, ("now the jingle hop has begun")...and then a Dominant E7 in place of the Em on the last line of the second verse ("in the frosty air"). Thanks for the tab!
