[G] [Bm7] [G] [Bm7]

Verse 1:
G                             Bm7
 Hey there Delilah, What’s it  like in New York City?
G                                                        Bm7
 I’m a thousand miles away, But girl tonight you look so  pretty, Yes you do,
Em    C                                D                  Em     
 Time  Square can’t shine as bright as  you, I swear it’s  true [D]
G                             Bm7
 Hey there Delilah, Don’t you  worry about the distance,
                G                                          Bm7
I’m right there  if you get lonely, Give this song another  listen,
                 Em      C                    D                      Em     
Close your eyes,  Listen  to my voice it’s my  disguise, I’m by your  side [D]

Verse 2:
G                                    Bm7
 Hey there Delilah, I know times are  getting hard,
                    G                                                  
But just believe me  girl some day, I'll pay the bills with this guitar, [Bm7]
                    Em     C                         D                      
We'll have it good,  We'll  have the life we knew we  would, my word is good [Em] [D]
G                                                   
 Hey there Delilah, I’ve got so much left to say, [Bm7]
            G                                                    
If every simple song I wrote to you, Would take your breath away, [Bm7] 
                  Em    C                           D                      
I’d write it all,  Even  more in love with me you’d  fall, We’d have it all [Em] [D]

Chorus:

Verse 3:
  C                                                         D
A  thousand miles seems pretty far, but they’ve got planes,  trains and cars
    G                              Em
I’d  walk to you if I had no other  way
    C                                                       D
Our  friends would all make fun of us, and we’ll just laugh  along because
        G                       D                 
We know  that none of them have  felt this way [Em]
        C                                         D
Delilah  I can promise you, that by the time that  we get through,
    Em                                      C               
The  world will never ever be the same, And  you’re to blame [D]

Bridge:
G                                   Bm7
 Hey there Delilah you be good, and  don’t you miss me,
               G                                                              
Two more years  and you’ll be done with school, and I'll be making history, [Bm7]
           Em      C                D             
Like I do,  You’ll  know it's all because of you, [Em]
C              D            Em
 We can do whatever we want  to,
C            D            Em                  D
 Hey there Delilah here's  to you, This one’s  for you
