Delia's Gone

Tom: A

A     A    D     A
Delia, oh Delia, Delia all my life
      D                                 Bm            E
If I hadn't-a shot poor Delia, I'd have had her for my wife
          A    D        A     E       A         
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

A             D            A             A7
I went up to Memphis, and I met Delia there
D                              Bm                E
Found her in her parlor, and I tied her to her chair
          A    D        A     E       A         
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone 

A             D                   A                 A7
She was low-down and travellin', and she was cold and mean
D                              Bm             E
Kind of evil make me want to grab my sub-machine
          A    D        A     E       A 
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

A             D            A             A7
First time I shot her, I shot her in the side
D                                Bm                   E
Hard to watch her suffer, but with the second shot she died
          A    D        A     E       A 
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

A             D            A             A7
But jailer, oh jailer, jailer I can't sleep
D                                Bm                    E
'Cuz all around my bedside I hear the patter of Delia's feet
          A    D        A     E       A 
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

A             D            A             A7
So if your woman's devilish, you can let her run
D                              Bm                   E
Or you can bring her down and do her like Delia got done
          A    D        A     E       A 
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
         A     D        A      E          A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
