Intro: Gm D# Cm F x2

Verse:
Gm                                  Dm
There was a time when we sailed on together
D                                     Gm
Once had a dream that we shared on the way
D#                                         A#
There was a place where we used to seek shelter
Cm               G#                        D
I never knew the pain of the price I would pay

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

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

Gm D# Cm F

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

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

Gm D# Cm F

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

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
Oh! 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
