[Intro] C E F F# G Cmmaj11 x2 [Verse 1]
C                             D7    F7
Woman of the country now I've found you

C               G7               C*
Longing in your soft and fertile delta

      C                C/B     C/Bb    Fsus2
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing

        C                 G7            C*
For the warmth and tender shelter of my body
[Chorus]
          Bb/C           F        C*
Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

            Bb/C      F         C   E F F# G
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady
[Verse 2]
C                                 D7    F7
Please don't ask how many times I found you

C                G7           C*
Standing wet and naked in the garden

      C                 C/B            C/Bb   Fsus2
And I think of days and diff'rent ways I held you

         C              G7                C
Held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating
[Chorus]
          Bb/C           F        C*
Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

            Bb/C      F         C   E F F# G
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady
[Bridge]
Dm              G            Dm        Bb
    Oh, and I'm over here in England

               F
But I think of you (think about you, oh, think about you)

          G    C   E  F  F#  G
Because I love you
C E F F# G Cmmaj11 [Verse 3]
C                                   D7  F7
There are concrete mountains in the ci--ty

    C           G7           C*
And pretty city women live inside them

    C                C/B        C/Bb   Fsus2
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking

       C                   G7            C
I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country
[Outro]
           Bb/C           F        C*
Oh, you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

             Bb/C      F         C*
Said, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady

           Bb/C           F        C*
And you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

             Bb/C           F        C*
Yeah, you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

           Bb/C           F        C*
And you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady
