Gtp chords: Hey There Delilah
Song lyrics:
VERSE 1: D Bm Hey there Delilah, What’s it like in New York City? D Bm I’m a thousand miles away, But girl tonight you look so pretty, G A Bm A Yes you do, Time Square can’t shine as bright as you, I swear it’s true. D Bm Hey there Delilah, Don’t you worry about the distance, D Bm I’m right there if you get lonely, Give this song another listen, G A Bm A Close your eyes, Listen to my voice it’s my disguise, I’m by your side. CHORUS: D Bm D Bm 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, What you do to me. VERSE 2: D Bm Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard, D Bm But just believe me girl some day, I'll pay the bills with this guitar, G A Bm A We'll have it good, We'll have the life we knew we would, My word is good. D Bm Hey there Delilah, I’ve got so much left to say, D Bm If every simple song I wrote to you, Would take your breath away, G A I’d write it all, Even more in love with me you’d fall, Bm A We’d have it all. CHORUS: D Bm D Bm 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, What you do to me. BRIDGE: G A A thousand miles seems pretty far, But they’ve got planes, 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, D Bm A The world will never ever be the same ..... And you’re to blame! VERSE 3: D Bm Hey there Delilah you be good, And don’t you miss me, D Bm Two more years and you’ll be done with school, And I'll be making history, 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. CHORUS D Bm D Bm 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, What you do to me.
