G#m                                  D#m
There was a time when we sailed on together
D#7                                    G#m
once had a dream that we shared on the way
E                                        B  *Lick #1*
there was a place where we used to seek shelter
C#m               A                        D#
I never knew the pain of the price I would pay

G#m                               D#m *Lick #2*
You led me on with a cloak and a dagger
D#7                                  G#m *Lick #3*
and I didn't know you had made other plans
E                                         B *Lick #4*
and had me believe we were meant for forever
C#m                   A                          D#
I really thought my heart would be safe in your hands

My ship has passed you by
                C#m
and though you promised me to show the way
D#
you led me astray
              G#m
you were my lorelei
E              B
what kind of fool was I
           C#m
cause I believed in every word you said
    D#
and now I wonder why

G#m                                  D#m *Lick #2*
There was a time when we held one another
D#7                                    G#m  *Lick #3*
Bearing our souls in the light of the flame
E                                         B *Lick #4*
Those were the days now I've lost my illusions
C#m                       A                        D#
Sometimes I wake in the night and I call out your name

G#m                                    D#m
now there's a light that shines on the river
D#7                          G#m *Lick #3*
Blinding my eyes from so far away
E                                        B *Lick #5*
Shot through the heart but now I know better
C#m                  A                        D# *Lick #6*
As hard as it is to resist the song that you play
