DELIA'S GONE - Johnny Cash
A D A
Delia, oh Delia, Delia all my life
D B7 E
If I hadn't-a shot poor Delia, I'd have had her for my wife
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A A7
I went up to Memphis, and I met Delia there
D B7 E
Found her in her parlor, and I tied her to her chair
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A A7
She was low-down and travellin', and she was cold and mean
D B7 E
Kind of evil make me want to grab my sub- machine
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A A7
First time I shot her, I shot her in the side
D B7 E
Hard to watch her suffer, but with the second shot she died
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A A7
But jailer, oh jailer, jailer I can't sleep
D B7 E
'Cuz all around my bedside I hear the patter of Delia's feet
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A A7
So if your woman's devilish, you can let her run
D B7 E
Or you can bring her down and do her like Delia got done
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
A D A E A
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
