When Mermaids Cry
guitar chords lyrics
G G
She was drowned in suicide faithless lover cast aside
Em Am
This is how she came to be Lorelei of the sea
G G
Hopes destroyed she wanted to find certain death peace of mind
Em C Am
Now you wonder who is she Lorelei of the sea
G Em
Many tales I've been told of sailors having died
C Am
after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei
G G
Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea
Em C
So next time that the seagulls fly don't you cry sweet Lorelei
[Chours]
G C
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Am C
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
G-Am Em-D Am-C C
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah-ah AH
G G
The guilt is mine I was untrue the question is what am I to do
Em C Am
All I know is I got to try, try to find sweet Lorelei
G Em
Make amends for what's been done cause I believe that she's the one
Am C
And I will go where seagulls fly, try to find sweet Lorelei
[Chours]
G C
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Am C
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
G-Am Em-D Am-C C
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah-ah AH
[Bridge]
D C
There she is I hear her cry
D C
She's asking me if I will die
D C Am C Em
There ain't nothing I won't do for you Lorelei, Lorelei
Repeat Chorus
And Enjoy!
