♫ Verse 1:
C                                 Dm7
  When I first met you
didn’t know a damn thing
Fmaj7                                   C
  Just said that I would try to find my way
C                                 Dm7
  Didn’t have no money               Just a set of wheels
Fmaj7                             C
        And a whole lotta time to kill

♫ Pre-Chorus:
Am7                               C
  I’ve been rolling                  on a southern wind
Fmaj7                                  Am
  Cold and weathered in the eye of the storm
Am7                 C
  Please leave your light on
Fmaj7                                G
  in case I get back home before the dawn

♫ Chorus:
C            Am
  Oh my Delilah
F                          C
  Don’t you miss me when I go
C              Am
  Soon I’ll be riding
F                       C
  Trying to find my way back home

♫ Verse 2:
C                                 Dm7
  When I first left you             all I wanted was to stay
Fmaj7                                  C
  Been six long months since I lost my way
C                                 Dm7
  Never saw it coming               It nearly struck me blind
Fmaj7                                C
  The thought of ever leaving you behind

♫ Pre-Chorus:
Am7                               C
  I’ve been rolling                  on a southern wind
Fmaj7                                  Am
  Cold and weathered in the eye of the storm
Am7                 C
  Please leave your light on
Fmaj7                                G
  in case I get back home before the dawn

♫ Chorus:
C            Am
  Oh my Delilah
F                          C
  Don’t you miss me when I go
C              Am
  Soon I’ll be riding
F                       C
  Trying to find my way back home
