Dick Meis also has a good version of it availible on his website under the songs library page. If you want to buy just that song tab, you can do it from that page or you can get his Christmas book and it has two good versions of Silent Night in it as well as other great songs. Hope that helps.

Tommie;
Do a search here on the Forum for "Silent Night". No tabs...but, there is a description of Jeff Newman's version of this tune at a Steel Show somewhere. Interesting! Good luck.

| There is a fairly simple tab of Silent Night in Winnie Winston's book. |

Will,
I'd forgotten. Aren't there two versions in Winnie's book, one for beginners and one for advanced?

As previously stated, place first finger of left hand lightly on the strings at the 12th fret.
As soon as the note is picked, lift your finger off the strings.
If this is done correctly, and it does take a bit of practice, you should hear a chiming note. 
Another slightly more difficult method will give a chorus effect:
Place the bar directly over the 12th fret.
Do not mute the strings.
Pick the strings with your picking hand behind the bar

I play this song harmonically also like much as Richard has explained.
My differnce is I put a 5/8" SS bar I had made for me under the strings at the 12th fret and pick the strings on both sides of the bar.
I saw Jeff Newman do this in 1981 on the song "Don't Take Her She's All I Got" and have applied it to other songs as well.

Winnie Winston's book has one version (moving the bar around more than the version above). Scotty's "Anthology" has
two versions with very little bar movement.
Don, is it a very thin rod which you weave between the strings at the 12th fret, over one string, under the next ?

John the 5/8" bar is slid under all the strings at the 12th strings instead of trying to hold the bar properly on the strings. This way both hands are free to pick and play the harmonics on both sides of the bar. I also touch the strings harmonically at the 5th fret which is more for show than anything else.

I've put my harmonic version on the net.
It's raw, as my recording technique is at a basic level.
I can't do overdubs, so it always has to be in one take.
After about ten tries, all with mistakes, I gave it one more go.
There are a couple of glitches, it's the best of the lot, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's any good !!  http://www.freefilehosting.net/?id=qtn2lqzd
Or, to play straightaway http://www.freefilehosting.net/file/?id=qtn2lqzd |

Silent Night is also one of the songs in Buddy Emmons "Christmas Sounds on the Steel Guitar" album. All the songs in this course are great!!
