Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I saw the light on the night
that I passed by her [E]window
[Am]I saw the flickering shadows
of love on [E]her blind
[A]She was my [Dm]woman
[Am]As she deceived me
I [E]watched and went out of my [Am]mind[G]

[Chorus 1]
[C]My, my, my De[G]lilah
Why, why, why, De[C]lilah
I could see, that [F]girl was no good for [Dm]me
[C]But I was lost like a [G]slave
that no man could [C]free[E]

[Verse 2]
[Am]At break of day
when that man drove away I was [E]waiting
[Am]I crossed the street to her house
and she opened the [E]door
[A]She stood there [Dm]laughing
[Am]I felt the knife in my han[E]d
and she laughed no [Am]more[G]

[Chorus 2]
[C]My, my, my De[G]lilah
Why, why, why, De[C]lilah
So be[C]fore they [F]come to break down the [Dm]door
For[C]give me, Delilah,
I [G]just couldn't take any [C]more[E]

[Solo 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]
[E][E][E][E]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]
[E][E][E][E]

[Verse 3]
[A]She stood there [Dm]laughing
[Am]I felt the knife in my han[E]d
and she laughed no [Am]more[G]

[Chorus 3]
[C]My, my, my De[G]lilah
Why, why, why, De[C]lilah
So be[C]fore they [F]come to break down the [Dm]door
For[C]give me, Delilah,
I [G]just couldn't take any [C]more
For[Am]give me, Delilah,
I [E]just couldn't take any [Am]more[D]
[Am][Am][Am]
