Here's another version of Regina Spektor's Samson, I've used a capo to make the chords a bit easier. Any queries/feedback, leave a comment. Cheers!
Standard tuning, capo 4th fret Cadd9
Here are the chords I used
G 320033 (OR 320003) Am 002210 C 032010 OR 032013 – sometimes it's audible on the track, but not important Cadd9 032030 OR 032033 C? x32032 – I'm not sure what this chord is, but I think this is right D x00232 – sometimes Dadd9 is used as a sort of passing note D/F# 200232 - sometimes it's audible on the track, but not important Em 022000 OR 022003 - sometimes it's audible on the track, but not important

[Verse]
GAmGCadd9 You are my sweetest downfall (C) DEmDC I loved you first, I loved you first GAmGCadd9 Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth (C) DEmDC I have to go, I have to go C? C Your hair was long, when we first met

[Chorus]
DEmG Samson went back to bed C Not much hair left on his head DEmGD He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed DEmGC And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us GD/F#EmC And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
DGDC (the first D chord is more of a passing note)
[Verse]
GAmGCadd9 You are my sweetest downfall (C) DEmDC I loved you first, I loved you first GAmGCadd9 Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads (C) DEmDC But they're just old light, they're just old light C? C Your hair was long when we first met
C?
[Chorus]
DEmG Samson came to my bed C Told me that my hair was red DEmGD Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed DEmG Oh I cut his hair myself one night C A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light CG And he told me that I'd done alright GDEmC and kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light GDEmC and he kissed me 'til the mornin' light
DGDC (the first D chord is more of a passing note)
GDEm
DEmG Samson went back to bed C not much hair left on his head DEmGD Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed DEmG Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down C Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one G And history books forgot about us GD/F#EmC And the bible didn't mention us, not even once....
DGDC (the first D chord is more of a passing note)
[Outro]
GAmGCadd9 You are my sweetest downfall (C) DEm I loved you first
