[G]
Oh, Mrs.
[Cm] O, will [G] you tell us where [Cm] the naughty [G] children go?
[Cm] Will you show how the [G] sky turned white [Cm] and [Em] everybody froze?
Heaven [C] knows how [Em] they got into [C]
the [Em] fireplace, [C] but everybody's saying grace
[Cm]
and trying to keep [C]
a happy [G] face.
And, [Cm] Mrs.
O, will [G] you teach us how to [Cm] keep from [G] getting cold?
Out [Cm] we go, and [G] you watch us as [Cm] we face the falling [Em] snow.
What [C] a show!
With [Em] our hair dryers aimed heavenwards [C] and fifty-foot extension [Cm] cords,
we really have a way with [G] words that you
[Cm] won't say
[G] now.
[Cm] The
[G] sky [Cm] is white,
[G]
[Cm]
[Gm] and watch the friends
[Eb] count the
[C]
friends.
[Eb] Amazing, strange [E] shows.
[G]
[Cm] Mrs.
O, [G] will you tell about [Cm] the time they made [G] you go [Cm] all alone
to [G] the palace where [Cm] they took your only [Em] clothes?
We [C] all know there's [Em] no hell in New Hiroshima, [C] Chernobyl was a cover of the [Cm] war.
[G] Mrs.
[Cm] O, will [G] you leave us hanging [Cm] now that [G] we are on the ground?
[Cm] Up and over [G] you, kill me if I [Cm] say I [Em] told you so.
We [C]
all know there's [Em]
no Hitler and no [E] Holocaust, [C] no winter and no Santa Claus.
And [Cm] yes, Virginia only [C] cares [G] that you [Cm] don't say [G] it now.
Uh [Cm]-uh-uh.
[G] The sky [Cm] is white,
[G]
[Cm]
[Gm] and everything
[Eb] that our town [C] seeks,
it's a faith that
[Eb] breaks the [E] silence.
[G] But you can't stop the [Eb] truth from leaking.
[C]
You're not [Eb] some [Em]
believers.
