Key: Ebm

Verse :
   Am         G
They lift him on their shoulders
   C         Dm
and bring him to the cheder
     F
Where he licks the honey off the letters
Em
of the aleph-bais
Am         G
And with tears they pray to Heaven

      C       Dm
for their precious little gem
F      G
May the Torah always be this sweet
Em     Am
Vhaarev Na Hashem

  Am        G
But as the boy grows older
   C        Dm
and Gemara leads his day
   F
That passion for his Torah learning
Em
slowly fades away
     Am         G
For he struggles with each sugya
    C       Dm
and he tires from despair
  F       G
If gemara is so challenging
    Em      Am
does it even pay to care

Chorus:
 F
Vhaarev Na Hashem
     C
Make it sweet for us again
     Dm
Like the honey that we tasted years
  Am
before
       F
Because each word is ours to own
     C
until we feel it in our bones
      Dm
And we'll want to keep on
Em         Am
learning more and more

 F
Vhaarev Na Hashem
C
Oy Vhaarev Na Hashem
     Dm
So your Torah will forever pierce the
Am
heart
   F
Be mesayem and return
    C
to the words we love to learn
    Dm
For we never feel
   Em       Am
complete when we're apart

 Am      G
A tiny ray of hope
 C       Dm
soon begins to show
     F
When his Rebbe says Chazara is
   Em
the key to help you grow
     Am      G
To gain clarity and cheishek
     C      Dm
you must constantly review
      F        G
And you'll love to learn gemara when
   Em         Am
the words speak back to you

    Am      G
With chazara of his learning
   C     Dm
his spirit is revived
    F
As the words of Torah penetrate
   Em
and slowly come alive
    Am      G
His excitement is rekindled
      C        Dm
and he's shteiging with his peers
    F         G
He can finally feel that passion
     Em         Am
that was lost for all those years


Chorus:
    Dm
Oh the power that we share
       Am
as words of Torah fill the air
      Dm        G
Could you imagine that we'd ever come
   Am
this far
     Dm
And the nachas that we'll see
      Am
might have never come to be
    C        Em    Am
If we didn't know how capable we are

Chorus:

End chorus (slightly different chords):
 F
Vhaarev Na Hashem
   Em
Oy Vhaarev Na Hashem
   Bb
I can sit and learn as hours pass me
Am
by
     F
And my gemara, now worn-out
     C
I could never be without
    Dm
For I finally feel that
 Em        Am
sweetness from on High
