[Intro]
F#  A#m  F#  A#m


[Verse]
F#
Hey there Delilah,
          A#m
What’s it like in New York City?
      F#
I’m a thousand miles away,
         A#m
But girl tonight you look so pretty,
        D#m   C#
Yes you do,
B                 C#                  D#m
Time Square can’t shine as bright as you,
             C#
I swear it’s true.


[Verse]
F#
Hey there Delilah,
          A#m
Don’t you worry about the distance,
          F#
I’m right there if you get lonely,
          A#m
Give this song another listen,
           D#m   C#
Close your eyes,
B            C#                D#m
Listen to my voice it’s my disguise,
            C#
I’m by your side.


[Chorus]
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
               F#
What you do to me.


[Verse]
F#
Hey there Delilah,
       A#m
I know times are getting hard,
         F#
But just believe me girl some day,
             A#m
I'll pay the bills with this guitar,
              D#m   C#
We'll have it good,
B              C#               D#m
We'll have the life we knew we would,
           C#
My word is good.


[Verse]
F#
Hey there Delilah,
         A#m
I’ve got so much left to say,
         F#
If every simple song I wrote to you,
      A#m
Would take your breath away,
             D#m   C#
I’d write it all,
B            C#                D#m
Even more in love with me you’d fall,
             C#
We’d have it all.


[Chorus]
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me


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


[Verse]
F#                        A#m
Hey there Delilah you be good, and don’t you miss me,
         F#
Two more years and you’ll be done with school,
    A#m
And I'll be making history,
       D#m   C#
Like I do,
B                C#              D#m   C#
You’ll know it's all because of you,
B             C#       D#m      C#
We can do whatever we want to,
B         C#                 D#m   C#
Hey there Delilah here's to you,
               C#
This one’s for you.


[Chorus]
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me
F#                      D#m
Oh it’s what you do to me


[Outro]
               F#      D#m
What you do to me, oh oh
    F#       D#m
Oh, oh, oh, oh
    F#       D#m
Oh, oh, oh, oh
    F#       D#m
Oh, oh, oh, oh
    F#   F#~
Oh, oh,
