G                                     C 
Underneath the lantern by the barrack gate 
D                                     G 
Darling I remember the way you used to wait 
C                                                    G 
Twas there that you whispered tenderly 
D 
That you loved me 
G 
You'd always be 
C                    G 
My Lili of the lamplight 
D                       G 
My own Lili Marlene 

G 
Time would come for roll call 
C 
Time for us to part 
D                                          G 
Darling I'd caress you and press you to my heart 
C                                              G 
And there 'neath that far-off lantern light 
D 
I'd hold you tight 
G 
We'd kiss good-night 
C                    G 
My Lili of the lamplight 
D                       G 
My own Lili Marlene 

G                                      C 
Orders came for sailing somewhere over there 
D                                              G 
All confined to barracks 'twas more than I could bear 
C                                       G 
I knew you were waiting in the street 
D 
I heard your feet 
G 
But could not meet 
C                    G 
My Lili of the lamplight 
D                       G 
My own Lili Marlene

A                           Bm 
Resting in a billet just behind the line 
E7                                                 A 
Even though we're parted your lips are close to mine 
Bm                                            A 
You wait where that lantern softly gleams 
E7                                        A 
Your sweet face seems to haunt my dreams 
Bm                   A 
My Lili of the lamplight 
E7                     A 
My own Lili Marlene 

Bm                   A
