Hebrew folk song
Shalom chaverim.
Shalom chaverim.
*Shalom. Shalom.
Leh-hee-tra-a-ot.
Leh-hee-tra-a-ot.
Shalom. Shalom.
* = 2nd group starts here.
"Shalom chaverim" = "Peace, friends."
"Ch" is as in "Bach" or "loch", but closer to "h".
"Lehitraot" = "Until we meet again."
This song works best pretty well a capella, but strumming
Cm (Am capoed 3) throughout can help the group stay together.
