G
Delta Dawn
C G
What's that flower you have on?
G D
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
G
And did I hear you say
C G
He was meeting you here today
G D C G
To take you to his mansion in the sky
[Verse 1]
G
She's forty-one
F G
And her daddy still calls her baby
G F G
All the folks round Brownsville say she's crazy
C
Cause she walks downtown
Am D G
With her suitcase in her hand
G F G
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man
[Verse 2]
G
In her younger days
F G
They called her Delta Dawn
G F G
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on
C
Then a man of low degree
Am D G
Stood by her side
G F G
Promised her he'd take her for his bride
