Artist: Willie Nelson
1. Far acr[D]oss deep blue waters, lives an o[G]ld German's daughter,
by the b[A]anks of the o[A7]ld river Rh[D]ine.
Where I loved her and l[D7]eft her, now [G]I can't forget her.
[A] I miss my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
Fraulein, Fraulein, walk d[G]own by the river,
pret[A]end that your h[A7]and's holdin' m[D]ine.
By the same stars above you, I sw[G]ear that I love you,
[A] you are my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
2. When my m[D]emories wander, aw[G]ay over yonder,
to the sw[A]eetheart that [A7]I left beh[D]ind.
In a moment of gl[D7]ory, a f[G]ace comes before me,
the f[A]ace of my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
FrauIein, Fraulein, look u[G]p toward the Heavens,
each n[A]ight when the st[A7]ars start to sh[D]ine.
By the same stars above you, I sw[G]ear that I love you,
[A] you are my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
by the b[A]anks of the o[A7]ld river Rh[D]ine.
Where I loved her and l[D7]eft her, now [G]I can't forget her.
[A] I miss my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
Fraulein, Fraulein, walk d[G]own by the river,
pret[A]end that your h[A7]and's holdin' m[D]ine.
By the same stars above you, I sw[G]ear that I love you,
[A] you are my pr[A7]etty Fraul[D]ein.
