Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The war went on and on and on

Until the mighty Greeks were gone

I flip my latkes in the air sometimes sayin

ayyy ohhh spin the drei-del

Just wanna celebrate for all eight nights singing

ayyy ohhh, light the can-dles

We say al ha-ni-ssim

Oh yea for all eight nights

Then we play dreidel

By the candle-light

And I told you once

Now I told you twice

Bout the mi-ra-cle

Of the candle-light

They took the field field field field

The rivals thought are they for real real real real

Those maccabees they’d never yield yield yield yield

They charged ahead with sword and shield shield shield shield

The war went on and on and on

Until the mighty Greeks were gone

I flip my latkes in the air sometimes sayin

ayyy ohhh spin the drei-del

Just wanna celebrate for all eight nights singing

ayyy ohhh, light the can-dles

We say maoz tzur

Oh yea for all eight nights

Then we play drei-del

By the candle-light

And I told you once

Now I told you twice

Bout the mi-ra-cle

Of the candle-light

And the great menorah

For eight days it kept on burning

What a celebration

A great return to Torah learning

Cuz I,I,I can feel it

And Ay-ay-ay

Nes gadol, nes gadol

Nes gadol hayah sham

Nes gadol hayah sham

I flip my latkes in the air sometimes sayin

ayyy ohhh spin the drei-del

Just wanna celebrate for all eight nights singing

ayyy ohhh, light the can-dles

We say al ha-ni-ssim

Oh yea for all eight nights

Then we play dreidel

By the candle-light

And I told you once

Now I told you twice

Bout the mi-ra-cle

Of the candle-light
