Delta Dawn - Tanya Tucker
|[Chorus]
|[C] Delta Dawn
|What's that [F] flower you have [C] on?
|Could it [C] be a faded rose from days gone [G] by?
|And [C] did I hear you say
|He was [F] meeting you here to[C]day
|To [C] take you to his mansion [G] in the [F] sky [C]
[Verse 1]
She's [C] forty-one
And her [Bb] daddy still calls her [C] baby
[C] All the folks round [Bb] Brownsville say she's [C] crazy
Cause she [F] walks downtown
With her [Dm] suitcase [G] in her [C] hand
[C] Looking for a my[Bb]sterious dark haired [C] man
[Verse 2]
In her [C] younger days
They [Bb] called her Delta [C] Dawn
[C] Prettiest woman [Bb] you ever laid eyes [C] on
Then a [F] man of low degree
[Dm] Stood [G] by her [C] side
[C] Promised her he'd [Bb] take her for his [C] bride
|[Chorus]
