Intro: Am F Dm G x2

Verse:
Am                                  Em
There was a time when we sailed on together
E                                     Am
Once had a dream that we shared on the way
F                                         C
There was a place where we used to seek shelter
Dm               A#                        E
I never knew the pain of the price I would pay

Verse:
Am                              Em
You led me on with a cloak and a dagger
    E                                Am
And I didn’t know you had made other plans
     F                                 C
You had me believe we were meant for forever
Dm                  A#                          E
I really thought my heart would be safe in your hands

Chorus:
Am   F
Lorelei
             C         C
My ship has passed you by
                 Dm           Dm
And though you promised me to show the way
E             E
You led me astray
             Am   F
You were my Lorelei
             C        C
What kind of fool was I
            Dm            Dm
ʼCause I believed in every word you said
     E          E
And now I wonder why
Am
Lorelei

Am F Dm G

Verse:
Am                                Em
There was a time when we held one another
E                                    Am
Baring our souls in the light of the flame
F                                       C
Those were the days now I’ve lost my illusions
Dm                     A#                         E
Sometimes I wake in the night and I call out your name

Chorus:
Bm   G
Lorelei
             D         D
My ship has passed you by
                 Em           Em
And though you promised me to show the way
F#              F#
You led me astray
            Bm  G
You were my Lorelei
              D     D
What kind of fool was I
            Em            Em
ʼCause I believed in every word you said
     F#            F#
And now I wonder why
    Bm
Lorelei

Am F Dm G

    Am                                Em
Now there’s a light that shines on the river
E                           Am
Blinding my eyes from so far away
F                                      C
Shot through the heart but now I know better
   Dm               A#                        E
As hard as it is to resist the song that you play

Chorus:
Bm   G
Lorelei
             D        D
My ship has passed you by
                 Em           Em
And though you promised me to show the way
F#              F#
You led me astray
       Bm G
Oh! Lorelei
              D      D
What kind of fool was I
            Em            Em
ʼCause I believed in every word you said
     F#            F#
And now I wonder why
    Bm
Lorelei
