Delilah

Tom: Am

   Am                                                  E       - E7
1. I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window,
    Am                                              E   - E7
    I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind.
     A   A7     Dm
    She was my woman, 
     Am                     E                         Am   - G7
    as she betrayed me I watched, and went out of my mind.
     C             G                G7     C
    My, my, my, Delilah. Why, why, why, Delilah.
             C7         F                   Dm
    I could see,  that girl was no good for me,
        C                   G                       C  - E
    but I was lost like a slave that no one could free.
    Am                                               E     - E7
2. At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
    Am                                                      E - E7
    I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door.
     A    A7         Dm
    She stood there laughing.
    Am                        E        \               Am   - G7
    I felt the knife in my hand, and she laughed no more.
     C             G               G7      C
    My, my, my, Delilah. Why, why, why, Delilah.
          C7          F                      Dm
    So before,  they came to break down the door,
        C                   G                      C 
    forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more.
        Am                    E                     Am    - Dm - Am 
    forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more.
