Delta Dawn Uke tab by Helen Reddy

Chorus:

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


A                       D                      A
She`s forty-one and her Daddy still calls her, Baby.
A                    D                     A
All the folks around Brownsville say she`s crazy.
A         D                       E               A
Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
A             D                      A
Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man.


A               D                          A
In her younger day's they called her Delta Dawn.
A               D                  A
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on.
A      D            E                 A
Then a man of low degree stood by her side.
A                 D                A
promised her he`d take her for his bride.
