    I'm looking for a very rare thing here, a christmas song that hasn't yet been sucked dry of life by evil b@stard shopping malls, that i can play on guitar this monday.

    Essentially, you're looking for a Christmas song that doesn't get played at Christmas?

    Step Into Christmas - Elton John.

    It's not played in the shopping centers much at all but you might get some people who recognise it and might join in. Personally one of my favourite christmas songs.

    River by Joni Mitchell.

    Although if don't want everyone who hears it to shoot themselves then don't play it because it's really depressing.

    Dear Father Christmas by Neil Innes. It's a nice chirpy song that's easily enough to play and is also a bit anti-war.
