Verse 1
this is Philip Thornshort from the BBC,
A
here to talk to you today
G
about the fascinating history
D
A
of mistletoe.
As you may know,
during the Christmas season,
D
Bm
some folks like to hang this
plant from the ceiling,
D
and if you're lucky enough to
G
accidentally stand under it,
D
G
someone else in the room
is allowed to come over
F#
and kiss you
Bm
G
without even asking permission.
C
How did such a strange
custom come about?
Em
C
D
Well, to find out, we must go all the way
Bm
D
A
D
about the Druids of ancient England.
D
Dm
considered Middlestow to be a sacred land
D
Dm
D
G
an d believed it had
C
Dm
miraculous properties
which could cure illness
F
and serve as an antidote
Dm
against poison.
F
G
Moreover, whenever the enemies met
Dm
under the mistletoe in the forest,
they had to lay down their arms
and observe the truth until the next day.
From this has seemingly come
D
Dm
the ancient custom
of hanging a ball of mistletoe
from the ceiling
G
Dm
and exchanging kisses under it.
Holidays come round, come round,
holidays come round once a year
Love my holidays, love my holidays,
I got plenty of good cheer here
A
F
But there's one tradition
that leaves me reeling
G
My mom hangs mistletoe from
Dm
F
G
Dm
the ceiling
F
Don't wanna be missed,
G
don't wanna be turned,
don't wanna be kissed
D
Dm
F
Don't wanna be hugged,
don't wanna be watched,
G
A
you call me cute
No, no, no!
No, no, no!
Outside snow falls, snow falls
I throw snowballs at the trees
Sledding down the hill,
sledding down the hill
Until my toes start to freeze
F
But when I come in to get warm
G
Dm
G
Dm
My mom expects me to perform!
F
Hi, how do you do?
Yes, I remember you.
G
D
No, now I'm eight.
Dm
F
Yes, I feel great.
G
A
No, next year I'll be in fourth grade.
Dm
D
G
Well, listen to Hazer Hazelight.
A
Dm
G
I will listen to Hazer Hazelight.
A
D
I will listen to Hazer Hazelight.

Dm
G
C
I will listen to Hazer Hazelight.
Dm
I.
D
Excuse me for the technical
difficulties we're experiencing.
A
D
Now, another legend
G
D
concerns the ancient Anglo -Saxon
Em
goddess Freya.
Am
Dm
The powerful god Loki
had crafted a poison arrow
with mistletoe to murder Freya's son.
For three days, everyone tried to
bring Freya's son back to life.
On the third day, Freya's tears
did bring her son back to life.
She was so overjoyed with happiness
that she transformed mistletoe
into a plant of love
And began to see anyone
who walked beneath it
Bb
F
Over the front door, by the bedrooms
Bb
Hanging in the hall,
F
in the closet with the brooms
Bb
You go to the fridge,
G
you know something's amiss
C
When your Aunt Carolina
sneaks up behind you
A
And gives you a kiss
Bb
F
By the piano, right above the sink
Bb
The dining room table,
F
you gotta stop and think
Bb
And if you assume
G
that you don't have to speak
C
Your little cousin Carmen
G
Grabs you by the arm and
A
Let's one -on -one cheer
Dm
Where mistletoe hangs,
G
A
there hangs that eye
Dm
Where mistletoe hangs,
there hangs that eye
Where mistletoe hangs,
there hangs that eye
Where mistletoe hangs,
C
there hangs that eye
I'm sorry for these continual
interruptions
Excuse me, excuse me
F
You're not supposed to be on
C
this channel
You mistletoe hangs
What, what?
Yeah, mistletoe hangs
Me?
Where mistletoe hangs?
Where mistletoe hangs,
Where mistletoe hangs,
there hangs that eye
Where mistletoe hangs,
Gm
there hangs that eye
C
