Delilah [Em]
Tom Jones
Intro: [Em]
[Em]I saw the light on the night that I passed by her [B7]window
[Em]I saw the flickering shadows of love on her [B7]blind
[E]She... [E7]was... my [Am]woman
[Em]As she deceived me, I [B7]watched and went out of my
[Em]mind [D7]
[G]My my my... De[D7]lilah
[D7]Why why why... De[G]lilah?
[G]I... could [G7]see... that [C]girl was no good for [A7]me
[Em]But I was lost like a [B7]slave... that no man could [Em]free [B7]
[Em]At break of day when that man drove away I was [B7]waiting
[Em]I crossed the street to her house and she opened the [B7]door
[E]She... [E7]stood... there [Am]laughing
Then [Em]I felt the knife in my [B7]hand and she laughed no
[Em]more [D7]
[G]My my my... De[D7]lilah
[D7]Why why why... De[G]lilah?
[G]So be[G7]fore... they [C]come to break down the [A7]door
For[Em]give me Delilah I [B7]just couldn’t take any [Em]more [B7]
For[Em]give me Delilah
I [B7]just couldn’t take any [Em]more [A] [Em] [B7] [Em]
