John & Yoko / Plastic Ono Band with the Harlem Community Choir
Happy Xmas (War is Over) (1971)
(Lennon/Ono)

I transposed this tab to G (a little easier to play, at least for me).
To match the original recording put on one of those cute ukulele
capos on the 2nd fret or transpose this tab up +2 to the key of A.
