: Hey There Delilah

CAPO 2

Intro: C Em C Em 

Verse: C 
Hey there Delilah, what’s it 
Em 
like in New York City? 

I’m a C 
thousand miles away, but girl 
Em 
tonight you look so pretty, yes you 
Am 
do,

F 
Time Square can’t shine as bright as 
Am 
you, I swear it’s 
G 
true. 


Verse: Hey there Delilah, don’t you worry about the distance, 
I’m right there if you get lonely, give this song another listen, close your eyes,
Listen to my voice it’s my disguise, I’m by your side. 

Chorus: [: C 
Oh it’s what you do to 
Am 
me, :] (4×), 
C 
what you do to me…


Verse: Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard, 
But just believe me girl some day, I'll pay the bills with this guitar, we'll have it good,
We'll have the life we knew we would, my word is good. 

Verse: Hey there Delilah, I’ve got so much left to say, 
If every simple song I wrote to you, would take your breath away, I’d write it all,
Even more in love with me you’d fall, we’d have it all. 

Chorus: [: Oh it’s what you do to me, :] (4×)

Bridge: F 
thousand miles seems pretty far, but 
G 
they’ve got planes and trains and cars, 

I’d C 
walk to you if I had no other 
Am 
way,

Our F 
friends would all make fun of us and 
G 
we'll just laugh along because

we C 
know that none of them have felt this 
Am 
way,

F 
Delilah I can promise you 
G 
that by the time that we get through, 

Em 
The world will never ever be the 
Am 
same and you’re to 
G 
blame.


Verse: Hey there Delilah you be good and don’t you miss me, 
Two more years and you’ll be done with school and I'll be making history, like I do 
You’ll know it's all because of you, we can do whatever we want to,
F 
Hey there Delilah here's to 
Am 
you, 
G 
this one’s for 
G 
you. 


Chorus: [: Oh it’s what you do to me, :] (4×), what you do to me…
