NEWARK, Calif. -- Brace yourselves, "Star Wars" fans, because these Christmas lights are from a galaxy far, far away.

Elementary school music teacher Tom BetGeorge uploaded this incredible video to YouTube of his Christmas light display, synced up with the iconic score from "Star Wars." Even though the display is clearly spectacular, one can't help but wonder what BetGeorge's neighbors think of it.

"The neighbors are very supportive especially since I use the display to raise money for the poor and homeless through my church," BetGeorge says in the video's description.

He also says that the instruments you see are playing real live notes.

"The guitar is 17', the piano is 19' and the drums are standard. About 12,500 channels running around 100,000 lights."

BetGeorge says the light beams on top of the house can be seen for miles, and admits he has to turn off the search lights in heavy rain so that planes don't mistake his house for an airport.

The display has been featured on ABC's "The Great Christmas Light Fight" and on Good Morning America on two separate occasions.

The season finale of "The Great Christmas Light Fight" airs Dec. 22 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
