        Em                      C#m 
little orphans in the snow with nowhere to call a home 
              G         D 
start their singing...singing 
         Em                               C#m 
waiting thru the summertime to thaw your heart in wintertime 
                 G          D 
thats why their singing...singing 

         Em     C           G          C 
waiting for a sign to turn blood into wine 
     Em                  C            G             D 
the sweet taste in your mouth turned bitter in its glass 
Em  C      G     D    Em  C      
G     D 
israel... in israel   israel... in israel 

            Em                           C#m 
shattered fragments of the past meet in veins on the stained glass 
            G              D 
like the lifeline in your palm 
          Em                           C#m 
red and green reflects the scene of a long forgotten dream 
             G                     D 
there were princes and there were kings 
      Em                        C#m 
now hidden in disguise, cheap wrappings of lies 
            G                          D 
keep your heart alive with a song from inside 

BRIDGE

      Em                         C#m 
even tho we're all alone we are never on our own 
            G         D 
when we,re singing...singing 
Em  C   G  D 
ooohh   ooohh   TWICE 
         Em                          C#m 
theres a man whos looking in and he smiles a toothless grin 
             G           D 
because hes singing ...singing 
       Em                              C#m 
some people shine with glee but their song is jealousy 
                G          D 
their hate is clanging...maddening 
Em   C              G          D 
in israel will they sing happy noel
