(Chorus:)
Lord, forgive me for what I’m thinking/
Cause it’s Saturday night and I'm high and I’ve been drinkin’/
Come tomorrow morning, across the aisle/
I look over and see her smile, I bow my head and the choir sings/
Lord, forgive me, she’s bringin’ out the devil in me.

Sundress on a willow tree, and the moon’s on the water/
I know the Lord’s been good to me, when I look at that preacher’s daughter/
She’s my Delilah: she brings me to my knees/
She could be an angel, Lord, she’s bringing out the devil in me.

(Chorus (don’t end on A but go to instrumental))

(Instrumental: Bm7 A/C# E/G# D, Bm7 A/C# E/G# D Eadd4)

(Chorus)

[Verse 1]
The clouds hung lower than they should be
Scrping the tops of the trees
The sun pierced through and the flowers are in bloom
It makes no difference to me
Meal’s cold and I was waiting for you to warm up
Thought I saw fire everywhere
She came along, not mistaking what I saw
Now we’re smoke in the air

’Cause you were the only one I was holding
And I was holding her close
You were the only one I was thinking of
Lying in her arms
Throwing away our love

[Verse 2]
She was young, she was new, and that’s what I wanted
New eyes that shine back at me
And [?], I was left with the thoughts
What I did, I couldn’t change

’Cause you were the only one I was holding
And I was holding her close
You were the only one I was thinking of
Lying in her arms
Throwing away our love

’Cause you were the only one I was holding
And I was holding her close
You were the only one I was thinking of
Lying in her arms
Throwing away our love
Our love
Our love
