Am                      Dm                    Am 
Merrily we sailed along Though the waves were plenty strong    
Am                            Dm    C      Am 
Down the twisting river Rhine Following a song... 
Am                       Dm               Am 
Legend's faded storyline Tried to warn us all  
Am                            Dm      C          Am 
Oh, they called her "Loreley" Careful or you'll fall...

Am                           Dm                  Am 
Oh, the stories we were told Quite a vision to behold 
Am                    Dm     C       Am 
Mysteries of the seas in her eyes of gold...  
Am                          Dm            Am 
Laying on the silver stone, such a lonely sight  
Am                         Dm      C    Am        Dm C Am 
Barnacles become a throne, my poor Loreley...  


  : Dm                  Am       Dm             Am 
  : And the winds would cry, and many men would die  
F                      C        G          Am     :

Am                               Dm                Am 
You would not believe your eyes, how a voice could hypnotize  
Am                     Dm    C      Am 
Promises are only lies from the Loreley  
Am                         Dm              Am 
In a shade of mossy green, seashell in her hand  
Am                            Dm       C         Am         Dm C Am 
She was born the river queen, ne'er to grace the land...

Am                      Dm                    Am 
Oh, the song of Loreley Charms the moon right from the sky...  
Am                              Dm    C    Am 
She will get inside your mind, loveley Loreley...  
Am                           Dm             Am 
When she cries "Be with me until the end of time"  
Am                         Dm    C      Am           Dm C Am 
You know you will ever be with your Loreley...

Dm                  Am       Dm             Am 
And the winds would cry, and many men would die

And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
