Lilli Marlene
[C] Underneath the lamplight
[G7] By the barrack gate Darling I remember
The way you used to [C] wait [C7]
[F] Twas there that you whispered [C] tenderly
That [G7] you loved me
And would [F] always be
My [Dm7] Lilli [G7] of the [C] lamplight
My [G7] own Lilli Mar[C]lene
[C] Orders came for sailing
[G7] Somewhere over there All confined to barracks
Was more than I could [C] bear [C7]
[F] I knew you were waiting [C] in the street
I could [G7] hear your feet
But [F] could not meet
My [Dm7] Lilli [G7] of the [C] lamplight
My [G7] own Lilli Mar[C]lene
[C] Resting in a billet
[G7] Just behind the line,
Even though we're parted
Your lips are close to [C] mine [C7]
[F] You wait where the lantern [C] softly gleams
Your [G7] sweet face seems
To [F] haunt my dreams
My [Dm7] Lilli [G7] of the [C] lamplight
My [G7] own Lilli Mar[C]lene
My [Dm7] own [G7] Lilli [C] Marlene
My [G7] own Lilli Mar[C]lene
