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