F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C I remember long ago F G When our family got together E Little eyes aglow F G Multi-colored candles burning E C As the joyous songs were sung F G How I miss the Menorah lights Em Am When we were all so young [Verse] Am Em Bubby burned the Latkes every Chanukah Em Am Forgot them in the frying pan each year Am Em While we were having fun playing Dreidle G Em Smoke alarms were wailing everywhere Am Em Firemen were breaking all the windows Em Am Zeidy closed his eyes, began to pray [Pre-Chorus] Am F Those Latkes had no luck G Am Our mouths bit down & stuck Am E But Bubby made us eat them anyway [Chorus] F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C I remember long ago F G When our family got together E Little eyes aglow F G Multi-colored candles burning E C As the joyous songs were sung F G How I miss the Menorah lights Em Am When we were all so young [Verse 2] Am Em Uncle Jake brought donuts by the dozen Em Am He warned us that Aunt Bertha couldn't bake Am Em But Uncle Hymie ate one singing Maoz Tzur G And that was Uncle Hymie's big mistake Am Em Our parents stood there beaming as they called us Em Am And handed us our presents one by one [Pre-Chorus] Dm Bathed in the light Am The Menorah burning bright G E Sweet memories as brilliant as the sun [Chorus] F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C I remember long ago F G When our family got together E Little eyes aglow F G Multi-colored candles burning E C As the joyous songs were sung F G How I miss the Menorah lights E When we were all so young [Chorus] F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C I remember long ago F G When our family got together E Little eyes aglow F G Multi-colored candles burning E C As the joyous songs were sung F G How I miss the Menorah lights Em Am When we were all so young [Bridge] F G E Am Where are those nights? Full of fun, full of lights F G Am E I can still hear their laughter and songs F G E Am But though they are gone, their spirit still lives on F G E For Bubby's love is still alive and strong [Chorus] F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C I remember long ago F G When our family got together E Little eyes aglow F G Multi-colored candles burning E C As the joyous songs were sung F G How I miss the Menorah lights E When we were all so young [Chorus] F G Those were the nights of Chanukah E C Spent with family and friends F G Filled with dreams and laughter E That we thought would never end F G So cherish your moments together E C It's what Bubby would have done F G And we wish a happy Chanukah Em Am To everyone!
