Am E E7
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 Dm7 Am E
She was my woman.....as she deceived me I watched
Am G
and went out of my mind.
CHORUS:
C G G7 B C
My, my, my, Delilah...why, why, why, De..lilah?
C 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 man could fr..ee.
#2.
Am E E7
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 Dm7 Am E
She stood there laughing.......I felt the knife in my hand,
Am G
and she laughed no more.
CHORUS:
C G G7 B C
My, my, my, Delilah...why, why, why, De..lilah?
C F Dm
So, before they come to break down the door..
C G C E
forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more.
(INTERLUDE:)
