Now that Samhain is over,
          C                        
And the Sidhe have returned to 
   G
their home,
     Am         C            F   
The dead have followed the 
   Em
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      
For their tombs they swallow the 
     F    Em
rising sun,
          G               F
And the Mabon is always reborn.
F
Reborn, oh

    C                    F     
So come all you people, come and 
   C
sing with me,
C                     F          
Join our voices, and sing the 
           G
long nights away,
C                      F    
All over the land, a chorus of 
      C          C
voices will sing,
                F                
For the rising Sun on Midwinter's 
  G
Day.

The land may be barren and lifeless,

     C                        G
The ground may be frozen and hard,
         Am        C         
And the rain that fell has now 
   F         Em
turned to ice,
     G                      F
The Winter is showing her card,
     C                    F      C
But now the Sun king has rested,
         C                     
And his eyes have turned to the 
  G
Earth,
      Am            C         
For three days the Sun has been 
   F            Em
still in the sky,
         G                       
But the time has now come for his 
  F
birth.
F
His birth, oh

    C                    F     
So come all you people, come and 
   C
sing with me,
C                     F          
Join our voices, and sing the 
           G
long nights away,

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   
While others they hear the clash 
     Em
of swords,
         G              F
For the Oak King will return!
F
Return, oh

    C                    F
