INTRO
Am
Am
I saw the light on the night
E
when I passed by her window
Am
I saw the flickering shadows
E
of love on her blind
A A7 Dm
She was my woman
Am E
As she deceived me I watched,
Am G
and went out of my mind
REFF..
C G
My, my, my, Delilah
C
Why, why, why, Delilah
C C7 F
I could see that girl
Dm
was no good for me
C G
But I was lost like a slave
C E
that no one could free
Am
At break of day when that man
E
drove away I was waiting
Am
I crossed the street to her
E
house and she opened the door
A A7 Dm
She stood there laughing
Am E
I felt the knife in my hand,
Am G
and she laughed no more
REFF..
C G
My, my, my, Delilah
C
Why, why, why, Delilah
C7 F
So before they came to break
Dm
down the door
C
Forgive me, Delilah,
G C E
I just couldn't take any more
