Lorelei
     E
You  told me tales of love and glory
A
Same old sad song, same old story
E             C#m
Sirens sing a lullaby
    G#m              B
And no one knows but Lorelei
 
Castles out of fairy tales
Timbers shiver where once there sailed
A lovesick man who caught her eye
And no one knew but Lorelei

CHORUS:
F#m
River, river have mercy
        B
Take me down to the sea
    F#m
For if I perish on these rocks
   B
My love no more I'll see

I've thought of you in far-off places
Puzzled over lipstick traces
So help me God, I will not try
And then I think of Lorelei

I've traveled far and wandered wide
An old photograph of you beside me
Old Man River seems so shy
And he remembers Lorelei

CHORUS

If I should float upon this stream 
And see you in my madman's dream
I'd sink into your troubled eyes
And none would know save Lorelei

CHORUS

But if my ship which sails tomorrow 
Should crash against these rocks, my sorrows 
I will drown, before I die
It's you I'll see, not Lorelei
    E
I-I-I

 E A2
Outro:(repeat & end on E)
