Verse :
   A minorAm         G+G
They lift him on their shoulders
   C majorC         DmDm
and bring him to the cheder
     FF
Where he licks the honey off the letters
E minorEm
of the aleph-bais
A minorAm         G+G
And with tears they pray to Heaven

      C majorC       DmDm
for their precious little gem
FF      G+G
May the Torah always be this sweet
E minorEm     A minorAm
Vhaarev Na Hashem

  A minorAm        G+G
But as the boy grows older
   C majorC        DmDm
and Gemara leads his day
   FF
That passion for his Torah learning
E minorEm
slowly fades away
     A minorAm         G+G
For he struggles with each sugya
    C majorC       DmDm
and he tires from despair
  FF       G+G
If gemara is so challenging
    E minorEm      A minorAm
does it even pay to care

Chorus:
 FF
Vhaarev Na Hashem
     C majorC
Make it sweet for us again
     DmDm
Like the honey that we tasted years
  A minorAm
before
       FF
Because each word is ours to own
     C majorC
until we feel it in our bones
      DmDm
And we'll want to keep on
E minorEm         A minorAm
learning more and more

 FF
Vhaarev Na Hashem
C majorC
Oy Vhaarev Na Hashem
     DmDm
So your Torah will forever pierce the
A minorAm
heart
   FF
Be mesayem and return
    C majorC
to the words we love to learn
    DmDm
For we never feel
   E minorEm       A minorAm
complete when we're apart

 A minorAm      G+G
A augmentedA tiny ray of hope
 C majorC       DmDm
soon begins to show
     FF
When his Rebbe says Chazara is
   E minorEm
the key to help you grow
     A minorAm      G+G
To gain clarity and cheishek
     C majorC      DmDm
you must constantly review
      FF        G+G
And you'll love to learn gemara when
   E minorEm         A minorAm
the words speak back to you

    A minorAm      G+G
With chazara of his learning
   C majorC     DmDm
his spirit is revived
    FF
As the words of Torah penetrate
   E minorEm
and slowly come alive
    A minorAm      G+G
His excitement is rekindled
      C majorC        DmDm
and he's shteiging with his peers
    FF         G+G
He can finally feel that passion
     E minorEm         A minorAm
that was lost for all those years

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

Chorus:

End chorus (slightly different chords):
 FF
Vhaarev Na Hashem
   E minorEm
Oy Vhaarev Na Hashem
   Bb majorBb
I can sit and learn as hours pass me
A minorAm
by
     FF
And my gemara, now worn-out
     C majorC
I could never be without
    DmDm
For I finally feel that
 E minorEm        A minorAm
sweetness from on High
