Chanukah Blessings

 
              C              G  F            C 
How Lucky are we that we have lights so we can see 
 
Am          F          G 
Although the day is done 
 
C               G    F                    C 
What a miracle that a spark lifts these candles out of the dark 
 
Am     F          G 
Every evening, one by one 
 
E           Am         F G C 
Until the end of hanukkah, of hanukkah. 
 
 
 
C                      G 
With the jingle bells and the toys 
 
F            C 
And the TV shows and noise 
 
Am      F     G 
It's easy to forget 
 
C           G 
At the end of the day 
 
F            C 
Our whole family will say  
 
F          G    C 
These words for Hanukkah 
 
 
 
C       G       F    C    Am F    G 
Baruch atah Adonai, eloheinu melech ha'olam,  
 
C          G       F           C

E                 Am         F G C 
We Light the candles for Hanukkah, for Hanukkah 
 
 
 
C             G 
We remember how Maccabees 
 
F                  C 
Fought so all of us could be free 
 
Am       F     G 
And so we celebrate 
 
C                  G 
On this festival of the lights 
     
F                 C 
There's a joyful time every night 
 
F      C     G 
But we illuminate  
 
E         Am           F G C 
the candles of Hanukkah, of Hanukkah 
 
 
 
C                 G       F        C    Am     F        G 
Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha'olam she'asa niseem La'avoteinu 
 
E  Am           F     G      C       
bayamim haheim baz'man hazeh.
