Delta Dawn (CHORDS) by Waylon Jennings
E D E
In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn!
E D E
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on!
A E
But a man of low degree stood by her side!
E D E
Promised her he'd take her for his bride!
[CHORUS]~
E A E
Delta Dawn what's that flower you have on..?
E B
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by..?
E A
Did I hear you say he was meetin' you here
E B E
today!!to take you to his mansion in the sky..?
E D E
She's forty one and her daddy still calls her,.. baby!
E D E
All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy!
A E
Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand!
E D E
Lookin' for a mysterious dark-haired man!
[CHORUS]~
