[Abm] [E] [Dbm] [Gb]
[Abm] [E] [Dbm] [Gb]
[Abm] And there was a time when we sailed [Ebm] on together
Once [Eb] had a dream that we shared [Abm] on the way
And [E] there was a place where we used [B] to seek shelter
I [Dbm] never knew [A] the pain of the price [Eb] I would pay
[Abm] You led me on with a cloak [Ebm] and a [Gb] dagger
And [Eb] I didn't know you had made [Abm] other plans
You [E] had me believe [B] we were meant for forever
[Dbm] I really thought [A] my heart would be safe [Ab] in your [Eb] hands
[Abm] Lorelei, [E] my ship [B] has passed you by
And though [Dbm] you promised me to show the way
[Eb] You led me astray, you were [Ab] my [Abm] Lorelei
[E] What [B] kind of fool was I?
Cause I [Dbm] believed in every word you said
[Eb] And now I wonder why, [Abm] Lorelei
[E] There [Dbm]
[Gb] [B] [Abm] [E] [Dbm]
[Gb] [Abm] was a time when we helped [Eb] one another
[Ebm] [Eb] Baring our souls in the light [Ab] of the [Abm] flame
[E] Those were the days, now I've lost [B] my illusions
[Dbm] Sometimes I wink [A] in the night and I call [Eb] out your name
[Bbm] Lorelei, [Gb] my ship [Db] has passed you by
And though [Eb] you promised me to show the way
[F] You led me astray, you were [Bbm] my Lorelei
[Gb] What kind [Db] of fool was I?
Cause I [Eb] believed in every word you said
[F] And now I wonder why, [Gb] [Ab] Lorelei
[Bbm] [Gb]
[Ab] [Gb] Now [Ab] [Bbm] [Ebm]
[Ab] there's a light [Abm] that shines [Ebm] on the river
[Eb] Blinding my eyes from so [Ab] far [Abm]
[Db] away
[Abm] [E] Shot through the heart, but now [Gb] I know [B] better
As [Dbm] hard as it is [A] to resist the song [Eb] that you play
[Bbm] Lorelei, [Gb] my ship [Db] has passed you by
And though [Eb] you promised me to show the way
[F] You led me astray, [Bbm] oh Lorelei
[Gb] What kind [Db] of fool was I?
Cause I [Eb] believed in every word you said
[F] And now I wonder why, [Bbm] Lorelei
[Gb] [Ebm] [Ab] [Bb] [Bbm] [Gb] [Ebm]
