Throughout the year

we shrink from our fear

hide from  our demons till the daylight appears

when the moon is just right

The bogles and banshees are briefly ensnared

by the boogeyman's pageant of cheap party scares

Boo Radley would gladly just keep to himself

come one, come all this year.

Bridge:
Am                               C
Big Foot and Grendel, though transcontinental
G                             B7
are sharing a moment that's quite sentimental

and Count Dracula is the last one to go
G           B7          Em           Cm
I bid him farewell, and I hand him his coat
G         D        Em   C
and with a wink, he says, "My dear
G         D         G
we'll meet again next year
Cm         G         D         G
don't you fear, come one, come all next year."
