Intro:
Bbm
Bbm F7
I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
Bbm F7
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
Bb Bb7 Ebm
She was my woman
Bbm F7 Bbm Ab7
As she deceived me I watched, and went out of my mind
Chorus :
Db Ab
My, my, my, Delilah
Ab7 C Db
Why, why, why, Delilah
Db Db7 Gb Ebm
I could see that girl was no good for me
Db Ab Db F7
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free
Bbm F7
At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
Bbm F7
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
Bb Bb7 Ebm
She stood there laughing
Bbm F7 Bbm Ab7
I felt the knife in my hand, and she laughed no more
Chorus :
Db Ab
My, my, my, Delilah
Ab7 C Db
Why, why, why, Delilah
Db Db7 Gb Ebm
So before they come to break down the door
Db Ab Db F7
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more

So before they come to break down the door
Db Ab Db
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more

Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any mo--oo--ore
