Christmas Unicorn Chords & Lyrics by Sufjan Stevens
Christmas Unicorn
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 7th (Same chords all the way through)
C G C G
I'm a Christmas Unicorn, in a uniform made of gold
C G Am D
With a billy-goat beard, and a sorcerer's shield, and mistletoe on my nose
C G C G
Oh, I'm a Christian holiday, I'm a symbol of original sin
C G Am D
I've a pagan tree, and a magical wreath, and bow-tie on my chin
C G C G
Oh, I'm a pagan heresy, I'm a tragical Catholic shrine
C G Am D
I'm a little bit shy, with a lazy eye, and a penchant for sublime
C G C G
Oh, I'm a mystical apostasy, I'm a horse with a fantasy twist
C G Am D
Though I play all night, with my magical kite, people say I don't exist
C G C G
For I make no full apology for the category I reside
C G Am D
I'm a mythical mess, with a treasury chest, I'm a construct of your mind
C G C G
Oh, I'm hysterically American, I've a credit card on my wrist
C G Am D
And I have no home, or a field to roam, I will curse you with my kiss
C G C G
Oh, I'm a criminal pathology with a history of medical care
C G Am D
I'm a frantic shopper, and a brave pill popper, and they say my kind are rare
C G C G
But I've seen others in the uniform of a unicorn just like me
C G Am D
We are legions wide, and we choose no sides, we are masters of mystique
C G C G
For you're a Christmas Unicorn, I have seen you on the beat
C G Am D
You may dress in the human uniform, child... But I know you're just like me
