E5 Asus2 Bsus4
Go light the lantern at your door,
E5 Asus2 Bsus4
and honour those who’ve gone before
Asus2 Bsus4 C#m
The worlds that part us now are twain,
E5 Bsus4 E5
for Hallow’s Eve is here again!

E5 Asus2 Bsus4 E5
The Westering sun grows pale and wan,
E Asus2 Bsus4
the day grows dark, the nights draw long
Asus2 Bsus4 C#m
The autumn leaves are tipped with fire,
E5 Bsus4 E5
and fruit hangs ripe upon the briar
Chorus
Sweep out the hearth, and clear the grate,
And bid fond welcome at your gate.
Gather the final harvest in,
For all the hardship winter brings.
Chorus
Break (verse progression)
Between the bonfires lightly tread,
And bless the year that lies ahead.
The seasons turn to frost and dew,
Before the sun its strength renews.
Chorus X2, guitar tacit during first half
of second chorus.
