TITLE: The Longest Night of the Year
Lyrics and Chords


Winter time, northern lights
How'd they find me here
Spinning rhymes and holding tight
As midnight's drawing near

/ G D C G / C - D - / :

  Life is a question, love is the answer
  Hope is the reason that we share
  A song with friends by candlelight
  On the longest night of the year

  / C - G - / Em - D - / " / C - G - / 

Thinking back to summer's end
When days were warm and long
Between the tracks, we'd gladly spend
The evening for a song

  Life is a dark road that lies ahead
  Friends light the way to make it clear
  And lead us on, around the bend
  On the longest night of the year

{Bridge}
We have been gathered by circumstances
Asking the question, "Why?"
We can't expect that we'll get an answer
But who's to say we shouldn't try

/ C - G - / C - D - / C - G - / Em - D - / 

And so each year, in wintertime
With friends all gathered round
We ring in strains of Auld Lang Syne
As snow comes falling down

  Tales of the old ways, love for the taking
  Songs for the younger ones to share
  The old refrain begins again
  On the longest night of the year

  Songs of the old ways, tales in the making
  Love for the younger ones to share
  The song goes on, without an end
  On the longest night of the year
