[Am] [Dm] [G]
[Am] There was a time when we [Em] sailed on together One [E] set a dream that we [Am] shared on the way
[F] There was a place where we [C] used to seek shelter I [Dm] never [A#] knew the pain of the [B] price I would [E] pay
[Am] You lit me up with a [Em] cloak and a dagger [E] And I didn't know you had [Am] made other plans
[F] You had me believe we were [C] meant for forever [Dm] I really [A#] thought my heart would be [E] safe in your hands
[Am] Lorelei, [F] my [C] ship has passed you by And [Dm] all you promised me to show the [E] way
You led me astray, you [Am] were my [F] Lorelei What [C] kind of fool was I?
Cause [D] I believed in [Dm] every word you [E] said And now I wonder why, [Am] Lorelei
[F] [Dm]
[Am] [F] [Dm]
[G] [A] There was a time when we [E] helped one [Em] another [E] Baring our thoughts in the [Am] light of the flame
[F] Now I've [C] lost my illusion [Dm] Sometimes I [A#] wing in the night and I [F#] call out your [E] name
[Bm] [G] Lorelei, my [D] ship has passed you by And all [E] you promised me to show the [F#] way

[Bm] [G]
[A] [G] [Bm] [Em]
[A] Now there's a [Am] light that [Em] shines on the river [E] Blinding my eyes from so [A] far [Am]
away
[F] Shot through the heart, but [G] now I know [C] better [Dm] As hard as it [A#] is to resist the song [E] that you play
[Bm] Lorelei, [G] my [D] ship has passed you by And [Em] all you promised me to show [F#] the way
You led me astray, [Bm] you were my Lorelei [G] What [D] kind of fool was I?
Cause [E] I believed in [Em] every word you [F#] said And now I wonder [Bm] why, Lorelei
