[Verse]
B C#m B/D# Esus2 E
You are my sweetest downfall
E F#sus2 F# G#m F# E
I loved you first, I loved you first
B C#m B/D# E
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
F# G#m F# E
I have to go, I have to go
Esus2 E5 Esus2
Your hair was long, when we first met
[Chorus]
F# G#m B
Sam-son went back to bed
B E
Not much hair left on his head
F# G#m B F#
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
F# G#m B E
And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
Badd9 F#/A# G#m7 E6/9
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
G#m/E F#/E B/E
[Verse]
B C#m B/D# Esus2 E
You are my sweetest downfall
E F#sus2 F# G#m F# E
I loved you first, I loved you first
B C#m B/D# E
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
E F# G#m F# E
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Esus2 E5 Esus2
Your hair was long, when we first met
[Chorus]
F# G#m B
Sam-son went back to bed
B E
Told me that my hair was red
F# G#m B F#
Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
F# G#m B E
Oh I cut his hair my self one night, a pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
E B5
And he told me that I'd done alright
Badd9 F#/A# G#m7 E
And he kissed me 'til the morning light, the morning light
Badd9 F#/A# G#m7 E6/9
And he kissed me 'til the morning li-ight
G#m/E F#/E B/E
[Chorus]
F# G#m B
Sam-son went back to bed
B E
Not much hair left on his head
F# G#m B F#
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
F# G#m B
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
B E
Yeah, we couldn't destroy a single one
E B
And history books forgot about us
Badd9 F#/A# G#m7 E6/9
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
G#m/E F#/E B/E
[Outro]
B C#m B/D# Esus2 E
You are my sweetest downfall
E F#sus2 F# G#m7
