A                                      D
 Far across deep blue waters, lives an old German's daughter 
       E            E7        A
By the banks of the old river Rhine 
                                    D
Where I loved her and left her, but I can't forget her 
E          E7          A
 I miss my pretty Fraulein. 
                         D
FrauIein, Fraulein, look up toward the Heaven 
     E                    E7       A
Each night when the stars start to shine 
                               D
By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you 
E          E7          A
You are my pretty fraulein. 

When my memories wander, away over yonder 
To the sweetheart that I left behind 
In a moment of glory, a face comes before me 
The face of my pretty fraulein. 

Fraulein, Fraulein, walk down by the river 
Pretend that your hand's holdin' mine 
By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you 
You are my pretty fraulein.
