[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)
