Blackmore's Night, Loreley (2003)
^{Key: :[A#m] (w: Ritchie Blackmore, Candice Night)}

INTRO:
[A#m] ^[D#m] [A#m] // [A#m] ^[D#m] ^[C#] [A#m] : [x2]
^[D#m] ^[C#] [A#m]

VERSE 1:
[A#m] Merrily we sailed along, [D#m] though the waves were [A#m] plenty strong
Down the twisting river Rhine, [D#m] follow-[C#]-ing a [A#m] song
Legend's faded storyline, [D#m] tried to warn us [A#m] all
Oh, they called her Loreley, [D#m] careful [C#] or you'll [A#m] fall

BREAK:
[A#m] ^[D#m] [A#m] // [A#m] ^[D#m] ^[C#] [A#m]

VERSE 2:
[A#m] Oh, the stories we were told, [D#m] quite a vision to be-[A#m]-hold
Mysteries of the seas, [D#m] in her [C#] eyes of [A#m] gold
Laying on the silver stone, [D#m] such a lonely [A#m] sight
Barnacles become a throne, [D#m] my poor [C#] Lore-[A#m]-ley [D#m] [C#] [A#m]

CHORUS:
[D#m] And the winds would [A#m] cry, and [D#m] many men would [A#m] die
And [F#] all the waves would [C#] bow, down [G#] to the Lore-[A#m]-ley

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK:
[A#m] ^[D#m] [A#m] // [A#m] ^[D#m] ^[C#] [A#m]

VERSE 3:
[A#m] You would not believe your eyes, [D#m] how a voice could [A#m] hypnotize
Promises are only lies, [D#m] from [C#] the Lore-[A#m]-ley
In a shade of mossy green, [D#m] seashell in her [A#m] hand
She was born the river queen, [D#m] ne'er to [C#] grace the [A#m] land [D#m] [C#] [A#m]

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

INSTRUMENTAL:
[D#m] ^[G#m] [D#m] // [D#m] ^[G#m] ^[F#] [D#m] : [x2]
[F]

VERSE 4:
[A#m] Oh, the song of Loreley, [D#m] charms the moon right [A#m] from the sky
She will get inside your mind, [D#m] lovely [C#] Lore-[A#m]-ley
When she cries "Be with me, un-[D#m]-til the end of [A#m] time"
You know you will ever be, [D#m] with [C#] your Lore-[A#m]-ley [D#m] [C#] [A#m]

REPEAT CHORUS: [x4]
