Samson Cifras

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