I saw the light on the night
E7
that I passed by her window
Am
I saw the flickering shadows
E7
of love on her blind.

She was my woman

I could see that girl
Dm
was not good for me,
C
G7
But I was lost like a slave
C
E7
that no man could free.
Am
At break of the day when that man
E7
drove away I was waiting
Am
I crossed the street to her house
E7
and she opened the door.

A7
Dm
She stood there laughing,
Am
E7
I felt the knife in my hand
Am
G7
and she laughed no more.
C7
G7
My, my, my Delilah,
C
why, why, why Delilah
C7
F
so before they come
Dm
to break down the door,
C
G7
forgive me Delilah, I just
C
couldn’t take any more.
Am
E7
Forgive me Delilah, I just
Am
Dm

couldn’t take any more.
