Bb
[tab]            Eb              Bb
What's that flower you have on?

         Bb                             F
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?

    Bb             Bb7
And did I hear you say

       Eb                  Bb
He was meeting you here today

   Bb                      F      Eb    Bb
To take you to his mansion in the sky
[Verse 1]
      Bb
She's forty-one

        Ab                    Bb
And her daddy still calls her baby

Bb                  Ab                    Bb
All the folks round Brownsville say she's crazy

          Eb
Cause she walks downtown

         Cm       F      Bb
With her suitcase in her hand

Bb               Ab                  Bb
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man
[Verse 2]
       Bb
In her younger days

     Ab               Bb
They called her Delta Dawn

Bb              Ab                 Bb
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on

       Eb
Then a man of low degree

Cm    F      Bb
Stood by her side

Bb                Ab               Bb
Promised her he'd take her for his bride
[Chorus]
