Tom Jones - Delilah Akor

Am E D

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window

Am E D

I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind

A A7 Dm

She was my woman

Am E A G

As she betrayed me I watched, and went out of my mind

C G

My, my, my, Delilah

G C

Why, why, why, Delilah

C C7 F Dm

I could see that girl was no good for me

C G C F

But I was lost like a slave that no one could free

At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting

I crossed 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

My, my, my, Delilah

Why, why, why, Delilah

Like before they came to break down the door

Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more

She stood there laughing

I felt the knife in my hand, and she laughed no more

My, my, my, Delilah

Why, why, why, Delilah

Like before they came 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
