G                               Bm
Oh you were always stronger than I was
   G                               A
Oh you were always stronger than I was
 
 
[Verse 1]
     G
Oh Delilah
     Bm
On a summer night, you came for me
G                       A
My eyes were wide shut, opened my mind
         G
Said you loved me
       Bm
In the heat of it, I replied
G                           D
"Drunk lust is blind, love, can't choose your type"
 
 
[Refrain]
G                               Bm
You were always stronger than I was
    G                               A
Oh, you were always stronger than I was
 
 
[Chorus]
         G              Bm
I got a good lesson in love
                  G
Taught through my bed
           A
Like a wildfire
 
You showed me
G
A good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
G              D
Good lesson in love
 
 
[Verse 2]
       G
In the morning
       Bm
With a heavy head, an empty bed
G                          A
Had a good time, you can't hold a good time
       G                     Bm
Oh you played me, like I was music made by your hands
G                     D
Still ringing out and echoing around
 
 
[Refrain]
G                               Bm
You were always stronger than I was
    G                               A
Oh, you were always stronger than I was
 
 
[Chorus]
        G             Bm
I got a good lesson in love
                  G
Taught through my bed
           A
Like a wildfire
 
You showed me
G
A good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
G              D
Good lesson in love
 
 
[Bridge]
    G                       Bm
The weaker you made me, the stronger I felt
    A                        F#m
The higher you built me, the further I fell
    G                       Bm
The weaker you made me, the stronger I felt
    A                        F#m
The higher you built me, the further I fell
 
 
[Refrain]
G                               Bm
You were always stronger than I was
        G              Bm            A
Oh you were always stronger than I was
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
               G              Bm
'Cause I got a good lesson in love
        G             A
I got a good lesson in love
         G
From you, good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
G             D
Good lesson in love
 
 
[Chorus]
        G             Bm
I got a good lesson in love
                  G
Taught through my bed
           A
Like a wildfire
 
You showed me
G
A good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
G             D
Good lesson in love
 
 
[Outro]
G
A good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
 
(You showed me)
G
A good lesson
A
Good, good lesson
 
(A good, good lesson)
G
A good lesson
Bm
Good, good lesson
 
(You showed me, you showed me)
G                 D
(A good lesson in love)
