1. Far across deep blue waters lives an old German's daughter,

                 E                 E7             A

    by the banks of the old river Rhine,

                   A                                      D

    where I loved her and left her, but I can't forget her,

2. Fraulein, Fraulein, look up toward the Heaven,

               E                       E7                 A

    each night when the stars start to shine.

                  A                                        D

    By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you,

    you are my pretty Fraulein.

3. When my memories wander, away over yonder,

                    E                 E7         A

    to the sweetheart that I left behind,

    in a moment of glory, a face comes before me,

    the face of my pretty Fraulein.

    By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you,
