Lonely River Rhine

(início)

C                              G7
It was spring in Munich on the Rhine
                                        C
I was lonesome for the love I've left behind
                             C7          F
So I stole love happiness my heart could find
       G7                             C
From a German girl there on the River Rhine
                                      G7
She thought I was free right from the start
                                          C
I said love words like an actor plays his part
                                 C7       F
Till one day I knew I meant then from the heart
    G7                                     C
I'd found Fraulein love there on the River Rhine
       F                     C
In the cold and lonely River Rhine
G7                        C
Lies my little darling my Fraulein
         F
When she learned I had a wife
         C
From the bank she took her life
  G7                           C
I lost her to the lonely River Rhine
                                G7
When at last I had to leave her side
                                       C
It was hard for me to tell her how I'd lied
                        C7          F
The morning papers told how she had died
          G7                             C
They were searching for her in the River Rhine
       F                     C
In the cold and lonely River Rhine
G7                        C
Lies my little darling my Fraulein
         F
When she learned I had a wife
         C
From the bank she took her life
  G7                           C
I lost her to the lonely River Rhine
