VERSE 1:
[A#m] I saw the light on the night that I passed by her
[F] window
[F7]
[A#m] I saw the flickering shadows of love on her
[F] blind
[F7]
[A#] She
[A#7] was my
[D#m] woman,
[A#m] As she deceived me I
[F] watched, and went out of my
[A#m] mind
[G#7]
CHORUS 1:
[C#] My, my, my,
[G#] Delilah; Why, why,
[G#7] why,
[C#] Delilah
I could
[C#7] see, that
[F#] girl was no good for
[D#m] me,
[C#] But I was lost like a
[G#] slave that no one could
[C#] free
[F open]
VERSE 2:
[A#m] At break of day when that man drove away I was
[F] waiting
[F7]
[A#m] I crossed the street to her house and she opened the
[F] door
[F7]
[A#] She
[A#7] stood there
[D#m] laughing
[A#m] I felt the knife in my
[F open] hand, and she laughed no
[A#m] more
[G#7]
CHORUS 2:
[C#] My, my, my,
[G#] Delilah; Why, why,
[G#7] why,
[C#] Delilah
So
[C#7] before, they
[F#] came to break down the
[D#m] door,
[C#] Forgive me, Delilah, I
[G#] just couldn't take any
[C#] more
[F]
INSTRUMENTAL: [A#m] [F] [A#m] [F]
[A#] She
[A#7] stood there
[D#m] laughing
[A#m] I felt the knife in my
[F open] hand, and she laughed no
[A#m] more
[G#7]
REPEAT CHORUS 2:
OUTRO:
[A#m] Forgive me, Delilah, I
[F] just couldn't take any
[A#m] more
[D#m] [A#m]
