E                        D                E
In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn.

E                   D              E
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on.

      A                              E
But a man of low degree stood by her side.

E                 D                E
Promised her he'd take her for his bride.
CHORUS:
E                      A               E
Delta Dawn what's that flower you have on?

E                                       B
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?

E                         A
Did I hear you say he was meetin' you here 

E                                        B  E
today..to take you to his mansion in the sky?
#2.
E                       D                      E
She's forty one and her daddy still calls her, baby.

E                    D                     E
All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy.

          A                                     E
Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand.

E             D                      E
Lookin' for a mysterious dark-haired man.
CHORUS:
E                      A               E
Delta Dawn what's that flower you have on?

Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?

E                         A
Did I hear you say he was meetin' you here
