[Verse 1]
A         A6    D               Dm6    A
High on a rocky ledge lives the Mädel, Edelweiß
A        A6      D         Dm6       A
Shy as a shadow, lovely as lace, and cold as ice
A AM7 A7      D              Dm
 Hiiiigh on a rocky ledge, I pledged my love to
A         F#     Bm          E   A
Her ev'ry time I climb up to paradise
 
[Verse 2]
A        A6         D          Dm6      A
How many times I've been up to see her, goodness knows
A           A6       D              Dm6     A
Huffing and puffing, dressed in the warmest climbing clothes
A AM7 A7      D                Dm
 Hooooow many chances would be taken in my
A           F#          Bm           E   A
Hopeless pursuit of the Schnee-Mädel-Edelweiß
 
[Verse 3]
A            A6       D            Dm6      A
Then spoke a spirit, "If you would win your Lady Love,
A            A6       D            Dm6        A
There's only one way: fall to your death from high above.
A AM7 A7        D              Dm
 Yoouuuu will begin to grow in snow beside the
A            F#     Bm        E     A
One you have waited for to be mated with."
 
[Verse 4]
A          A6    D          Dm6    A
Now I'm an Edel, vice to my Mädel, Edelweiß
A        A6      D          Dm6 A
Dying to be with her wasn't any sacrifice
A AM7 A7      D         Dm
 Weee're so deliriously happy on our
A             F#         Bm         E    A
Ledge where I pledged my love to my Lady Fair
 
[Verse 5]
A           A6        D             Dm6    A
You who are climbing, breathless to see me and my love
A            A6      D         Dm6     A
Snow flowers growing fonder on Lover's Ledge above
A AM7 A7           D                  Dm
 Iiiiif you've the yen to pluck, then pluck us both for
A           F#       Bm           E      A
We who have lived as one, wish to die as one
