[Verse 1]
G                        B              Em           Em7/B
 You've had your troubles, Israel, I've seen them all
C                               D               G
 But you put the writing on the wall, Israel, Israel


[Verse 2]
G                               B
 You know I've seen you fall so many times
Em Em7/B               C                         D           G
        I've cried for you and that's a crime, Israel, Israel


[Chorus]
    Em
Israel, where there's sand, where there's beautiful sand
    C
Israel, you know you got a kind of feeling, that's just grand
   G         B             Em C               G
Ahh, take me into your arms,   let me be with you

Let me be with you, Israel, Israel, Israel

 I like the smiles up on your people's faces, they make you feel warm embraces
                     A              D
And I want that kind of smile, that kind of smile


[Verse 4]
G                                                B
 Israel, you make the whole world think about you

And if they don't they'll find a reason, to shout about, Israel, Israel
D                     G
 You're the only one, Israel, Israel


[Chorus]
    Em                                                  C
Israel, tell me all about it. Tell me all about it, Israel, tell me all about it
             G             B     Em           Em7/B        C            D
Ahh, take me into your arms, and make me feel your goodness, be with me Israel

Israel....Israel
G                  B            Em             C        G       D         G
 Take me into your arms, let me hold, hold you to myself. Oh, I want to, Israel

    Em      C   G              B    Em           C  G        D       G
Israel, Israel, take me back into, into your arms, Israel, yeah, Israel
    Em      C
Israel, Israel...
