1. Lady Delilah - she enslaves me 
 
   F             Ab             Eb    Db  G  
   I'm bound and chained by her lies   Lies 
 
   Cm              Cm/Bb        F/A 
   One look in her eyes and she breaks me 
 
         Ab             G 
   And I fall down like rain 
 
          Ab             G 
   As the wind sings her name 
   Dm    G        Em    A 
   Ohhhhhohhhhhh  Ohhhhhohhhhh 
 
   F#m     B      Em    A 
   Ohhh  Delilah  Ohhhhhohhhh 
 
   D         C             B 
   I was the strongest man alive 
 
   A#             E            A    Bb/A (below x2) 
   'Till you came along - my Delilah

2. She deceived me but believe me it was alright 
    
   To touch her lips was to kiss the blades of her knives 
    
   Why do things we know are wrong feel so right? 
    
   Worth a lifetime of pain 
    
   For one night to sing her name 
    
   Oh, Delilah? 
    
   I was the strongest man alive 
    
   'Till you came along - my Delilah

   Well I'll never be the same 
 
             Ab                     G 
   Cause that girl - yeah, she's to blame 
 
             Ab      G 
   How could I love again 
 
             Ab            G 
   Since she took my heart away.

   And then someone said her name 
   And I tore at my flesh to dull the pain of the sound 
   And ripped from the chains and the walls came down 
   And I lay covered and bound 
    
                         E 
   And I called out her name?
