^{Key: :[A] (w: Tom Higgenson)}

INTRO: [A] [C#m] [A] [C#m]

VERSE 1:
[A] Hey there Delilah, what's it [C#m] like in New York City?
I'm a [A] thousand miles away, but girl to-[C#m]-night you look so pretty,
Yes you [F#m] do, [/E]^[D] Time Square can't [E] shine as bright as [F#m] you,
I swear it's [E] true.

VERSE 2:
[A] Hey there Delilah, don't you [C#m] worry about the distance,
I'm right [A] there if you get lonely, give this [C#m] song another listen,
Close your [F#m] eyes, [/E]^[D] listen to my [E] voice it's my dis-[F#m]-guise,
I'm by your [E] side.

CHORUS:
[A] Oh it's what you do to [/E]^[F#m] me, [A] Oh it's what you do to [/E]^[F#m] me,
[A] Oh it's what you do to [/E]^[F#m] me, [A] Oh it's what you do to [/E]^[F#m] me,
What you do to [A] me.

VERSE 3:
[A] Hey there Delilah, I know [C#m] times are getting hard,
But just be-[A]-lieve me girl some day, I'll pay the [C#m] bills with this guitar,
We'll have it [F#m] good, [/E]^[D] we'll have the [E] life we knew we [F#m] would,
My word is [E] good.

VERSE 4:
[A] Hey there Delilah, I've got [C#m] so much left to say,
If every [A] simple song I wrote to you, would [C#m] take your breath away,
I'd write it [F#m] all, [/E]^[D] even more in [E] love with me you'd [F#m] fall,
We'd have it [E] all.

REPEAT CHORUS: (drop last line of CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
[D] A thousand miles seems pretty far, but [E] they've got planes and trains and cars,
[A] I'd walk to you if I had no other [F#m] way
[D] Our friends would all make fun of us, and [E] we'll just laugh along because,
We [A] know that none of them have felt this [F#m] way,
[D] Delilah I can promise you, that [E] by the time that we get through,
The [F#m] world will never ever be the same, and you're to [E] blame.

VERSE 5:
[A] Hey there Delilah you be [C#m] good, and don't you miss me,
Two more [A] years and you'll be done with school, and [C#m] I'll be making history,
[F#m] Like I do,
[/E]^[D] you'll know it's [E] all because of [F#m] you,
[/E]^[D] We can do what-[E]-ever we want [F#m] to,
[/E]^[D] Hey there De-[E]-lilah here's to [F#m] you,
This one's for [E] you.

REPEAT CHORUS:

OUTRO: Ooh, Ooh, Ooh [over CHORUS]
