Samson The Statler Brothers
[Intro]
[F] [Gm7]
[Verse 1]
[C] Oh, Samson, it's been [F]said you were a mighty man
I've heard it said you killed a lion with your [C]hands
And when the [F]people of Philistia raised your [A7]Ire
Ain't [G]you the man who set their fields on [C]fire?
[Verse 2]
You faced an [F]army of Philistines all alone
And didn't you tear at their flesh with just a[C] bone?
So [F]tell me, Samson, if these things I hear are t[A7]rue
How could you [F]let a woman [C]get the best of [F]you?
[Verse 3]
[F]I've heard it said you were the best of many men
That you could tear a city gate right [C]off it's hinge
And that the [F]strongest rope just could not hold you [A7]bound
And [G]you completely tore one temple [C]down
[Verse 4]
How could you [F]let yourself get caught in such disgrace?
[F] You got the best of every man you ever fac[C]ed
And afte[F]r all the mighty enemies you s[A7]lew
How could you let [F]a women get [C]the best of you?
[Interlude]
[F] [F] [F] [F] [Gm7]
[Verse 5]
[C]You've battled many [F]a man till he has turned and fled
Then turned around and let a woman turn your hea[C]d
You loved the best, [F]of man, but you were bound to fall[A7]
By the very[G] thing that you loved best of all[C]
[Cborus]
[C]Oh, Samson, it's [F]been said you were a mighty man
[F]And women were your weakness, this I understand[C]
But after all [F]the mighty armies you went thr[A7]ough
How could you [F]let a woman get the best of you?
[Cborus]
[F]Oh, Samson, it's been said you were a mighty man
And women were your weakness, this I underst[C]and
But after all [F]the mighty armies you went thr[A7]ough
How could you [F]let a woman get [C]the best of you?[F] [F] [A7]
How could you let [F]Delilah get the [C]best of yo[F]u? [A7] [F]
