Barbara Ray - Delta Dawn Chords

[Chorus]
C                       F               C
Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on?
C             F     C                   G
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
    C                         F                  C
And did I hear you say he was meeting you here today
C                  G              F   C
to take you to his mansion in the sky-y?

[Verse 1]
C                       F                     C
She's forty-one and her Daddy still calls her baby
C                    F                     C
All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy
C        F                       G               C
When she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
C             F                      C
looking for a mysterious dark haired man

[Verse 2]
C                        F                C
In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn
C               F                  C
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on
C      F            G                 C
Then a man of law degree stood by her side
C                 F                C
promised her he'd take her for his bride

[Chorus]
D                       G               D
Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on?
D             G     D                   A
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
    D                         G                  D
And did I hear you say he was meeting you here today
D                  A              G   D
to take you to his mansion in the sky-y?

[Outro]
D                       G               D
Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on?
D             G     D                   A
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
    D                         G                  D
And did I hear you say he was meeting you here today
D                  A              G   D
to take you to his mansion in the sky-y?
