Delilah

Em                                
I saw the light on the night that 
                    B
I passed by her window
Em                                
I saw the flickering shadows of 
          B
love on her blind
E E7    Am
She was my woman
Em                    B          
As she decieved me I watched, and
              Em     D7
 went out of my mind

G                D
My, my, my, Delilah
D                G
Why, why, why, Delilah
G      G7     C                  
I could see that girl was no good
  Am
 for me
G                       D        
But I was locked like a slave 
              G   B
that no one could free

Em                                
At break of day when that man 
                 B
drove away I was waiting
Em                                
I crossed the street to her house 
                   B
and she opened the door
E       E7         Am
She stood there laughing
Em                        B      
I felt the knife in my hand, and 
                 Em D7
she laughed no more

G        D
My, my, my, Delilah
D          G
Why, why, why, Delilah

G     G7           C            
Like before they came to break 
      Am
down the door
G                       D        
Forgive me, Delilah, I just 
                  G B
couldn't take any more

E       E7         Am
She stood there laughing
Em                        B      
I felt the knife in my hand, and 
                 Em D7
she laughed no more

G        D
My, my, my, Delilah
D          G
Why, why, why, Delilah

G     G7           C            
Like before they came to break 
      Am
down the door
G                       D        
Forgive me, Delilah, I just 
                  G
couldn't take any more
     B                             
Forgive me, Delilah, I just 
               Em
couldn't take any more
