     E
You told me tales of love and glory
 A
Same old sad song, same old story
 E             C#m
Sirens sing a lullaby
    G#m               B
And no one knows but Lorelei

Castles out of fairytales
Timbers shivered where once there sailed
The lovesick men who caught her eye
And no one knew but Lorelei

Chorus:
F#m
River, river have mercy
         B
Take me down to the sea
    F#m
For if I perish on these rocks
    B
My love no more I'll see

I've thought of you in far-off places
I've puzzled over lipstick traces
So help me God, I will not cry
And then I think of Lorelei

I travel far and wander wide
No photograph of you beside me
Ol' Man River's not so shy
And he remembers Lorelei

chorus

If I should float upon this stream
And see you in my madman's dream
I'd sink into your troubled eyes
And none would know 'cept Lorelei

chorus

But if my ship, which sails tomorrow
Should crash against these rocks, my sorrows
I will drown before I die
It's you I'll see, not Lorelei
