Leibel Cohen - Maybe Its Time

	  		
Verse 1:

      Am 
G-d?s house was destroyed and millions lay dead 
           G 
Jews were scattered throughout the lands 
   F 
As predicted in the Torah three 
               E7 
thousand years ago 

       Am                            G 
And we moved to any country that would open its gates 
     F                       E7 
We?d build up their economy until they were great 
           Am 
They would suck us dry 
    F#dim       E7 
And leave us to die?. 



           Am 
Maybe it?s Time 
           G 
Time to be free yeah 
Dm 
Time To Stop Being Blind 
           E7 
And make Aliyah 

Verse 2:

      Am 
For a hundreds of years we would pray to Hashem 
   G 
To Bring us back to our land 
  F 
A place with no life, just jackals & thorns 
E7 
Endless miles of desert sand 

    Am                   G 
The Crusaders raped us and blood libels ruled 
    F                        E7 
The Cossacks would chase us and burn down our shuls 
       Am 
Jewish life was cheap then 
F#dim       E7 
Again and Again? 


 
           Am 
Maybe it?s Time 
               G 
To Make the Connection 
       Dm 
In the one place on earth 
                           E7 
Where Hashem offers His protection 

       Am 
Now is Time 
           G 
Time to be true 
       Dm 
To the Land promised by Hashem 
           E7 
To Avrahom Avinu 

Verse 3:

Am 
Fires still smoldered in a Europe destroyed 
   G 
We turned to American shores 
F 
Streets of gold, limitless prospects 
       E7 
And a freedom never seen before 

            Am                      G 
But at that very same time a spark kindled again 
F                     E7 
Miracle of Miracles a gift from Hashem 
       Am 
He had heard our demand 
        F#dim       E7 
We were back in our land 


 
           Am 
Maybe it?s Time 
           G 
Time to be free yeah 
Dm 
Time To Stop Being Blind 
           E7 
And make Aliyah 

Verse 4:
 
Am 
Memories are short, it?s been 70 years 
  G 
America just isn?t the same 
F 
Streets are restless Jackals are out 
         E7 
And like always we're the first ones they blame 

      Am                      G 
They choose to ignore all the blessings we've brought 
F                             E7 
Medical breakthroughs and the nobel prize thoughts 
        Am 
You're just a damn Jew 
    F#dim       E7 
So what else is new? 



           Am 
Now IS The Time 
                 G 
The Good will is Gone 
Dm 
Time to get on a plane 
                          E7 
And starting singing our song 

           Am 
Maybe it?s Time 
           G 
Time to be free yeah 
Dm 
Time To Stop Being Blind 
           E7 
And make Aliyah
