Delia, oh, Delia
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Delia all my life
ch]D[/ch
If I hadn't have shot poor Delia
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I'd have had her for my wife

Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I went up to Memphis
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
And I met Delia there

Found her in her parlor
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I tied her to her chair
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Grab my sub-machine

Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

First time I shot her

Like Delia got done

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
The beast in me
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Is caged by frail and fragile bars
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Restless by day, and by night
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
Rants and rages at the stars
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
God help the beast in me
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
The beast in me
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Has had to learn to live with pain
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And how to shelter from the rain
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And in the twinkling of an eye
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
Might have to be restrained
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
God help the beast in me
ch]E[/ch
Sometimes it tries to kid me
ch]F[/ch
That it's just a teddy bear
ch]C[/ch
And even somehow manage to vanish in the air
ch]G[/ch
And that is when I must beware
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
Of the beast in me
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
That everybody knows
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
They've seen him out dressed in my clothes
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Patently unclear if it's New York or New Year
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
God help the beast in me
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
The beast in me

Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
Well, I got a friend named Whiskey Sam
ch]A[/ch
He was my boonie rat buddy for a year in 'Nam
ch]B7[/ch
He said, "I think my country got a little off track.
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back."
ch]E[/ch
But, it's better than not comin' back at all
ch]A[/ch
Many a good man I saw fall
ch]B7[/ch
And even now, every time I dream
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
My children love me, but they don't understand
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I got a woman who knows her man
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
It don't mean nothin', drive on
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
Well, I remember one night, Tex and me
ch]A[/ch
Rappelled in on a hot L.Z.
ch]B7[/ch
We had our 16's on rock and roll
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And with all of that fire, I was scared and cold
ch]E[/ch
I was crazy and I was wild
ch]A[/ch
And I have seen the tiger smile
ch]B7[/ch
I spit in a bamboo viper's face
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I'd be dead, but by God's grace...
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
My children love me, but they don't understand
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I got a woman who knows her man
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
It don't mean nothin', drive on
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
It was a slow walk in a sad rain
ch]A[/ch
And nobody tried to be John Wayne
ch]B7[/ch
I came home but Tex did not
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I can't talk about the hit he got
ch]E[/ch
But I got a little limp now when I walk
ch]A[/ch
And I got a little tremolo when I talk
ch]B7[/ch
But my letter read from Whiskey Sam,
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
"You're a walking talking miracle from Vietnam"
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
My children love me, but they don't understand
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And I got a woman who knows her man
ch]E[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
It don't mean nothin', drive on

ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Why me Lord? What have I ever done
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
To deserve even one of the blessings I've known?
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Why me Lord? What did I ever do
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
That was worth love from you and the kindness you've shown?
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it

Try me Lord if you think there's a way
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
That I can repay what I've taken from you
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Maybe Lord I could show someone else
ch]E[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
What I've been through myself on my way back to you
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it

Intro
Verse→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Lord, I've never lived where churches grow. I loved creation better as it stood
ch]A[/ch
that day you finished it so long ago and looked upon your work and called it good.
ch]E[/ch
I know that others find you in the light that sifted down through tinted window panes,
ch]A[/ch
and yet I seem to feel you near tonight in this dim, quiet starlight on the plains.
ch]E[/ch
I thank you, Lord, that I'm placed so well, that you've made my freedom so complete,
ch]A[/ch
that I'm no slave to whistle, clock or bell, nor weak-eyed prisoner of Waller Street.
ch]E[/ch
Just let me live my life as I've begun and give me work that's open to the sky.
ch]A[/ch
Make me a partner of the wind and sun and I won't ask a life that's soft or high.
ch]E[/ch
Let me be easy on the man that's down, let me be square and generous with all.
ch]A[/ch
I'm careless sometimes, Lord, when I'm in town, but never let ‘em say I'm mean or small.
ch]E[/ch
Make me as big and open as the plains and honest as the horse between my knees;
ch]A[/ch
clean as the wind that blows behind the rains, free as the hawk that circles down the breeze.
ch]E[/ch
Forgive me, Lord, if sometimes I forget. You know about the reasons that are hid.
ch]A[/ch
You understand the things that gall or fret. Well, you knew me better than my mother did.
ch]E[/ch
Just keep an eye on all that's done and said and right me sometimes when I turn aside
ch]A[/ch
And guide me on that long, dim trail ahead that stretches upward toward the great divide.
N.C. [ch]A[/ch]
"Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie."
ch]E[/ch
These words came low and mournfully
ch]A[/ch
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
On his dying bed at the close of day
N.C. [ch]A[/ch]
"Oh, bury me not," and his voice failed there
ch]E[/ch
But we took no heed to his dying prayer
ch]A[/ch
In a shallow grave just six by three
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
We buried him there on the lone prairie

I have tried in my ways to be free
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
Like a fish on a hook, like a knight in some old-fashioned book
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I have saved all my ribbons for thee
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And if I, if I have been unkind
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
I just hope you, will let it go by

And if I, if I have been untrue

I hope you know, it was never to you
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc

Like a baby stillborn, like a beast with his horn.

I have torn everyone who reached out to me
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I'll make it all up to thee
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I saw a young man, leaning on his wooden crutch
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
He called out to me, "Don't ask for so much."
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And a young woman, leaning in her darkened door
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
She cried out to me, "Why not ask for more?"

ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Between Heaven and Hell, a teardrop fell
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
In the deep crimson dew, the tree of life grew
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And the blood gave life to the branches of the tree
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And the blood was the price that set the captives free

Clung to the tree and were redeemed by the blood

But I saw through the tricks of six-sixty-six

ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And the blood gave life to the branches of the tree
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And the blood was the price that set the captives free

And with the numbers that came through the fire and the flood

I clung to the tree and was redeemed by the blood

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
With the twilight colors falling and the evening laying shadows
ch]D[/ch
Hidden memories come stealing from my mind
ch]D[/ch
And I feel my own heart beating out the simple joy of living
ch]G[/ch
And I wonder how I ever was that kind
ch]G[/ch
But the wild road I was rambling was always out there calling
ch]D7[/ch
And you said a hundred times I should have died
ch]D7[/ch
Then you reached down and touched me and lifted me up with you
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
So I believe it was the road I was meant to ride
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a young man getting over his crazy days
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I don't have to do that any more
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
There are nights I don't remember and pain that's been forgotten
ch]D[/ch
And a lot of things I choose not to recall
ch]D[/ch
There are faces that come to me in my darkest secret memories
ch]G[/ch
Faces that I wish would not come back at all
ch]G[/ch
But in my dreams parade of lovers from the other times and places
ch]D[/ch
There's not one that matters now, no matter who
ch]D[/ch
I'm just thankful for the journey and that I survived the battles
ch]G[/ch
And that my spoils of victory is you
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a young man getting over his crazy days
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I don't have to do that any more
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I'm like a soldier getting over the war

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
There once was a man, and he couldn't cry
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Hadn't cried for years and for years
ch]C[/ch
Napalmed babies, movie love stories
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
For instance could not produce tears
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
As a child, he had cried as all children will
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Then at some point, his tear ducts all ran dry
ch]C[/ch
Grew to be a man, it all hit the fan
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Things got bad, but he couldn't cry
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
His dog got ran over, his wife up and left him
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
After that he got sacked from his job
ch]C[/ch
Lost his arm in a war, was laughed at by a whore
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Ah, but still not a sniffle or sob
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Well, his novel was refused and his movie was panned
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
His big Broadway show was a flop
ch]C[/ch
He got sent off to jail; you guessed it, no bail
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Ah, but still not a dribble or drop
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
In jail he was beaten, bullied and buggered
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And made to make license plates
ch]C[/ch
Water and bread was all he was fed
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Not once did a tear stain his face
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Doctors were called in, scientists too
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Theologians were last and practically least
ch]C[/ch
They all agreed sure enough, this is no cream puff
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Ah, but in fact an insensitive beast
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
He was taken from jail and placed in a place
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
For the insensitive and the insane
ch]C[/ch
He made a lot of friends and he played a lot of chess
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And he cried every time it would rain
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Once it rained forty days and it rained forty nights
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And he cried and he cried and he cried and he cried
ch]C[/ch
On the forty-first day, he passed away
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
He just dehydrated and died
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
He went up to heaven, located his dog
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
After that, he rejoined his arm
ch]C[/ch
Below, all the critics, they took it all back
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Cancer robbed the whore of her charm
ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
His ex-wife died of stretch marks, his ex-employer went broke
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
The theologians were finally found out
ch]C[/ch
Right down to the ground, the jail house burnt down
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the earth suffered perpetual drought
Outro
ch]D[/ch
Da da da da da daaa,
ch]C[/ch
Da daaa, da da daaa,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Mm dada daaa, da da dada da daaa
