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

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

Chorus:
G#m   E
Lorelei
             B         B
My ship has passed you by
                 C#m           C#m
And though you promised me to show the way
Eb             Eb
You led me astray
             G#m   E
You were my Lorelei
             B        B
What kind of fool was I 
            C#m            C#m
'Cause I believed in every word you said
     Eb          Eb
And now I wonder why
G#m
Lorelei

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

My ship has passed you by
                 Ebm           Ebm
And though you promised me to show the way
F              F
You led me astray
            Bbm  F#
You were my Lorelei
              C#     C#
What kind of fool was I
            Ebm            Ebm
'Cause I believed in every word you said
     F            F
And now I wonder why

Bridge: G#m E C#m F#

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

Chorus:
Bbm   F#
Lorelei
             C#        C#
My ship has passed you by
                 Ebm           Ebm
And though you promised me to show the way
F              F
You led me astray
       Bbm F#
Oh! Lorelei
              C#      C#
What kind of fool was I
            Ebm            Ebm
'Cause I believed in every word you said
     F            F
And now I wonder why
    Bbm
