intro
F#  *2


D#m
There was a time when we sailed on together
G#m 
once had a dream that we shared on the way
B
there was a place where we used to seek shelter
D# 
I never knew the pain of the price I would pay
D#m
You led me on with a cloak and a dagger
G#m 
and I didn't know you had made other plans
B
and had me believe we were meant for forever
D# 
I really thought my heart would be safe in your hands

G#m 
Lorelei
B 
My ship has passed you by
                C#m 
and though you promised me to show the way
D# 
you led me astray
              G#m
you were my lorelei
B
what kind of fool was I
           C#m  
cause I believed in every word you said
     D#  
and now I wonder why
   G#m 
Lorelei

D#m
There was a time when we held one another
G#m 
Bearing our souls in the light of the flame
B
Those were the days now I've lost my illusions
D# 
Sometimes I wake in the night and I call out your name

A#m
Lorelei
C# 
My ship has passed you by
                  D#m
and though you promised me to show the way
F 
you led me astray
              A#m
you were my lorelei
C#
what kind of fool was I
           D#m
Cause I believed in every word you said
     F
and now I wonder why
   A#m ?
Lorelei


D#m
now there's a light that shines on the river
G#m 
Blinding my eyes from so far away
B
Shot through the heart but now I know better
D# 
As hard as it is to resist the song that you play


A#m
Lorelei
C# 
My ship has passed you by
                  D#m
and though you promised me to show the way
F 
you led me astray
              A#m
you were my lorelei
C#
what kind of fool was I
           D#m
Cause I believed in every word you said
     F
and now I wonder why
A#m
