Now that Samhain is over
C G
And the Sidhe have returned to their home
Am C F Em
The dead have followed the Raven's song
G F
And no longer among us they roam
C F C
The wisdom of our ancient past
C G
Show us how to ride the storm
Am C F Em
For their tombs they swallow the rising sun
G F
And the Mabon is always reborn
F
Reborn, oh
C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing

For the rising Sun on Midwinter's Day

The land may be barren and lifeless
C G
The ground may be frozen and hard
Am C F Em
And the rain that fell has now turned to ice
G F
The Winter is showing her card
C F C
But now the Sun king has rested
C G
And his eyes have turned to the Earth
Am C F Em
For three days the Sun has been still in the sky
G F
But the time has now come for his birth
F
His birth, oh
C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing

Some say Jesus was born today
C G
Some say he is the Mabon
Am C F Em
Some say that he is the Son of God
G F
While others the Son of the Sun
C F C
Some they listen in woodlands
C G
For the call of Herne
Am C F Em
While others they hear the clash of swords
G F
For the Oak King will return!
F
Return, oh
C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me,
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away,

All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing,
