Delilah

Am                                
I saw the light on the night that 
                E
I passed by her window
Am                                
I saw the flickering shadows of 
          E
love on her blind
A   A7       Dm
She was my woman
Am                   E           
As she betrayed me I watched, and
                Am   G
 went out of my mind

C              G
Why, why, why, Delilah?
G               C
Why, why, why, Delilah?
C       C7       F              
I could see that girl was no 
      Dm
good for me

C                       G        
Just like a slave I was lost and 
             Am
no man could free

At break of day when that man drove 
away I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house 
and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
But I held a knife in my hand, and 
she laughed no more

Why, why, why, Delilah?
Why, why, why, Delilah?

So, before they come to break down 
the door
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't
 take any more

So, before they come to break down 
the door
I held a knife in my hand

G
Well, that's all right, mama
That's all right for you
That's all right mama, anyway you 
wanna do
                 C
Well, that's all right, that's all 
right,
           D                     
That's all right now mama, anyway 
     G
you do

Well I'm leaving town, baby
leaving town for sure
you won't be bothered with
Me hanging 'round your door
that's all right, that's all right,
That's all right now mama, anyway 
you do
