One Light Many Windows

Intro 
Emaj7   B/D#   C#m7   Amaj7 


[Verso 1]
 
Emaj7 
There's a wreath on our door and lights on the tree, 
B/D# 
A mug in my hand, and my family with me. 
C#m7 
But outside the snow globe of garland and pine, 
Amaj7 
I see other windows, with other kinds of shine. 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
Emaj7 
Next door they're spinning a dreidel or two, 
B/D# 
With laughter and candles and stories held true. 
C#m7 
Down the block a kinara glows strong, 
Amaj7 
With colors and drums and a unity song. 
 


[Refrão]
 
Emaj7 
One light, many windows, shining so bright, 
B/D# 
Different traditions, but all full of light. 
C#m7 
From Christmas to Kwanzaa, Solstice to flame, 
Amaj7 
We honor the joy, though we're not all the same. 
Emaj7 
It's not what you call it, or how you may pray 
B/D# 
It's love that unites us this holiday. 
 


[Verso 2]
 
Emaj7 
The kids on the block chase dreams in the dark, 
B/D# 
Their breath in the air, their laughter a spark. 
C#m7 
The moon looks down on our patchwork of ways, 
Amaj7 
Yet kindness connects us on these winter days. 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
Emaj7 
So pass me your story, I'll listen with care, 
B/D# 
We'll light up this season with all that we share. 
C#m7 
A neighbor, a friend, a greeting, a song 
Amaj7 
This world feels more whole when we all belong. 
 


[Ponte]
 
C#m7 
One light, many windows, shining so bright, 
Amaj7 
Different traditions, but all full of light. 
F#m7 
From Christmas to Kwanzaa, Solstice to flame, 
B7 
We honor the joy, though we're not all the same. 
C#m7 
It's not what you call it, or how you may pray 
Amaj7 
It's love that unites us this holiday. 

Final Chorus 
Emaj7 
The glow from your window shines back at me, 
B/D# 
the Love from above is all that I see.
