[Intro]
D F#m D F#m
[Verse 1]
D F#m Hey there Delilah, what’s it like in New York City? D F#m I’m a thousand miles away, but girl tonight you look so pretty, Bm G A Bm Yes, you do, Times Square can’t shine as bright as you, A I swear it’s true. D F#m Hey there Delilah, don’t you worry about the distance, D F#m I’m right there if you get lonely, give this song another listen, Bm G A Bm Close your eyes, listen to my voice, it’s my disguise, A I’m by your side.
[Chorus]
D Bm D Bm A Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me, D Bm D Bm Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me, D What you do to me.
[Verse 2]
D F#m Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard, D F#m But just believe me girl, some day I'll pay the bills with this guitar, Bm G A Bm We'll have it good, we'll have the life we knew we would, A My word is good. D F#m Hey there Delilah, I’ve got so much left to say, D F#m If every simple song I wrote to you, would take your breath away, Bm G A Bm I’d write it all, even more in love with me you’d fall, A We’d have it all.
[Chorus]
D Bm D Bm A Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me, D Bm D Bm A Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me,
[Bridge]
G A A thousand miles seems pretty far, but they’ve got planes and trains and cars, D Bm I’d walk to you if I had no other way G A Our friends would all make fun of us, and we'll just laugh along because, D Bm We know that none of them have felt this way, G A Delilah, I can promise you, that by the time that we get through, Bm A The world will never ever be the same, and you’re to blame.
[Verse 3]
D F#m Hey there Delilah, you be good, and don’t you miss me, D F#m Two more years and you’ll be done with school, and I'll be making history, Bm G A Bm Like I do, you’ll know it's all because of you, G A Bm We can do whatever we want to, G A Bm A Hey there Delilah, here's to you, this one’s for you.
[Final Chorus]
D Bm D Bm A Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me, D Bm D Bm Oh, it’s what you do to me, Oh, it’s what you do to me, D What you do to me. Bm D Bm D Bm D Bm D D (full strum) Ohhh
