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

[chorus:]
C G
My, my, my, delilah
C
Why, why, why, delilah
C7 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 free

[verse:]
At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
I cross the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

[chorus:]
My, my, my delilah
Why, why, why delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me delilah I just couldn’t take any more

[insert trumpet solo here on chords verse]

A Dm
She stood there laughing
Am E Am G
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

[chorus:]
My, my, my delilah
Why, why, why delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me delilah I just couldn’t take any more
Forgive me delilah I just couldn’t take any more
