VERSES:

Verse 1

NC
When I think of Lorelei

My head turns all around

As gentle as a butterfly

She moves without a sound



  D5    C5   D5      G5
I call her on the telephone

    D5    C5  D5        G5
She says be there by eight

  D5       C5   D5           G5
Tonight's the night she's moving in

    D5 C5   D5      G5
And I can hardly wait



Verse 2

    D5    C5 D5      G5
Her eyes become a paradise

    D5   C5  D5         G5
She softly speaks my name

    D5    C5    D5            G5
She brightens every lonely night

D5  C5     D5         G5
No one's quite the same


    D5     C5  D5      G5
She calls me on the telephone

    D5    C5  D5        G5
She says be there by eight

  D5       C5   D5           G5
Tonight's the night she's moving in

     D5    C5  D5   G5
It's time to celebrate




BRIDGE:


             A    AA AA AA
And when she moves 

G5  G5  G5
Oo-Oo-Oo

  A AA AA AA
I gotta say




CHORUS:


D5             C5    D5       G5 G5 G5
Lorelei let's live together

Brighter than the stars forever

Lorelei let's live together
