Verse 1:
A minorAm
A augmentedA small cup of wine he holds in his hand
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm     C majorC
Young Mendel at a Farbrengen does stand
A minorAm
Thousands of men standing in awe
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm
Their attention to the Rebbe is drawn

A minorAm
Though Mendel stood there his mind was elsewhere
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm     C majorC
To hear the Farbrengen he did not care
A minorAm
He just could not wait until it was done
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm
So he could go home and have fun

Verse 2:
C majorC          G+G      A minorAm
As he walked down the street, his friends he would meet
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm     C majorC
They'd teach him to lie and they'd teach him to cheat
C majorC          G+G      A minorAm
He'd look to both sides to make sure no one saw
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm
Then Mendel would break every law

C majorC      FF      A minorAm     G+G
It occurred to him at a Farbrengen one week
C majorC      FF      A minorAm     G+G
After all it's to me that the Rebbe does speak
A minorAm      FF      C majorC
His words to my heart I must take
C majorC      FF      C majorC
What a difference to me it would make

C majorC      FF      A minorAm     G+G
How can I stand every week and ignore
C majorC      FF      A minorAm     G+G
The words being said by the Nossi HaDar
A minorAm      FF      C majorC
He decides with tears in his eyes
C majorC      FF      C majorC
Enough of my cheating and lies

As he walked down the street, he met his best friend

He told him my bad ways have come to an end
C majorC      A minorAm     G+G      A minorAm
I've come to regret all the things that I did
C majorC      G+G      A minorAm
From now on I'll be a Chosid
