VERSES:

Verse 1

NC
When I think of Lorelei

My head turns all around

As gentle as a butterfly

She moves without a sound

 G+G
I call her on the telephone

  G+G
She says be there by eight

 G+G
Tonight's the night she's moving in

  G+G
And I can hardly wait


Verse 2

  G+G
Her eyes become a paradise

  G+G
She softly speaks my name

  G+G
She brightens every lonely night

G+G
No one's quite the same


  G+G
She calls me on the telephone

  G+G
She says be there by eight

 G+G
Tonight's the night she's moving in

   G+G
It's time to celebrate



BRIDGE:


       A augmentedA  A augmentedAA AA A augmentedAA
And when she moves

G+G
Oo-Oo-Oo

 A augmentedA AA A augmentedAA AA
I gotta say



CHORUS:


G+G
Lorelei let's live together

G+G
Brighter than the stars forever

G+G
Lorelei let's live together

D MajorD
Brighter than the stars forever

Oh, baby, forever
