[Gbm] [Db]
[Eb] [Bb]
When [Eb] it's darkness [Cm] on [G] the [A] Delta [C] That's when my heart feels light
[A] When it's darkness [Bb] [Bbm] on the [D] Delta [Eb] Let me linger [Abm] in the shelter of the [Cm] night
[Ab] Fields of [Bb] cotton, [Eb] [Bm] they surround me [C] I can hear my baby singing soft and low
I'm [Bb] so glad [C] [Bb] that you found [Eb] me [Db] Where the muddy Mississippi [Eb] waters flow
There's lightness on the levee I can hear that [Ab] mockingbird sing high up above
[A] There's laughter on the levee No one's heart is heavy
[C] Cause all of God's children [D] got someone [Ab] to [Eb] love
When it's darkness [Bm] on the Delta [G] [C] That's when [C] heaven is in sight
When [F] it's darkness [Abm] [Am]
[D] on the Delta [Eb] Let me [B] linger in the shelter [Eb] of the night
