Amber called her uncle, said "We're up here for the holiday,
F A# Gm C C
Jane and I were having Solstice, now we need a place to stay."
F A# Gm C
And her Christ-loving uncle watched his wife hang Mary on a tree,
Dm A# Gm C C
He watched his son hang candy canes all made with red dye number three.
F A# Gm C
He told his niece, "It's Christmas Eve, I know our life is not your style,"
F A# Gm C C
She said, "Christmas is like Solstice, and we miss you and it's been awhile,"
F A# Gm C
So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
F A# Gm C
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
Dm A# Gm C
And just before the meal was served, hands were held and prayers were said,
F A# Gm C F
Sending hope for peace on earth to all their gods and goddesses.
F A# Gm C
The food was great, the tree plugged in, the meal had gone without a hitch,
F A# Gm C C
Till Timmy turned to Amber and said, "Is it true that you're a witch?"
F A# Gm C
His mom jumped up and said, "The pies are burning," and she hit the kitchen,
Dm A# Gm C C
And it was Jane who spoke, she said, "It's true, your cousin's not a Christian,"
F A# Gm C
"But we love trees, we love the snow, the friends we have, the world we share,
F A# Gm C C
And you find magic from your God, and we find magic everywhere."
F A# Gm C
So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
F A# Gm C
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
Dm A# Gm C
And where does magic come from? I think magic's in the learning,
Dm A# Gm C F
'Cause now when Christians sit with Pagans only pumpkin pies are bur-ning.
F A# Gm C
When Amber tried to do the dishes, her aunt said, "Really, no, don't bother."
F A# Gm C C
Amber's uncle saw how Amber looked like Tim and like her father.
F A# Gm C
He thought about his brother, how they hadn't spoken in a year,
Dm A# Gm C C
He thought he'd call him up and say, "It's Christmas and your daughter's here."
F A# Gm C
He thought of fathers, sons and brothers, saw his own son tug his sleeve, saying,
F A# Gm C C
"Can I be a Pagan?" Dad said, "We'll discuss it when they leave."
F A# Gm C
So the Christians and the Pagans sat together at the table,
F A# Gm C
Finding faith and common ground the best that they were able,
Dm A# Gm C
Lighting trees in darkness, learning new ways from the old, and
Dm A# Gm C F
Making sense of history and drawing warmth out of the cold.
