/ E~ - - - / A~ - E~ - / B7 A~ E~ - / 

Deep in an ancient grove of golden trees
There must be magic in this gentle breeze
I'm blown away!  What can I say?
Anybody can tell, I'm under your spell
Galadriel!

Before the movies ever came along
I was enchanted by your shimmering song
The printed word was what I heard
Kate was great for a look, but this began with the book
Galadriel!

	/ A~ - E~ - / / / " /

	My yearning is not for action
	It's a more sublime attraction
	Please, dear Lady, show me your grace
	Bless the bright stars above, yeah, I'm in courtly love
	Galadriel!

I'm not the first to call you Lady Fair
Open the book and you will find him there
Gimli -- and we agree
We can't help ourselves, we love the Queen of the elves
Galadriel!

If I could only kneel and kiss your hand
But you've departed for the Blessed Land
Namarie!  Perhaps some day...
If I can't be where you are, I'll adore from afar
Galadriel!

	Fair as sunlight, deep as the ocean
	No wonder you inspire devotion
	I do have a lover of the mortal race
	And we'll always be true, but I'll still dream of you
	Galadriel!
