PLAIN WHITE T'S LYRICS

"Hey There Delilah"

D Hey there Delilah
What's it F#m like in New York City?
I'm a D thousand miles away
But girl, to F#m night you look so pretty
Yes you Bm do   A   G
Times Square can't A shine as bright as Bm you
I swear it's A true


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


D Oh it's what you do to Bm me
D Oh it's what you do to Bm me
D Oh it's what you do to Bm me
D Oh it's what you do to Bm me
What you do to D me


Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday 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

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

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A G thousand miles seems pretty far
But A they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd D walk to you if I had no other Bm way
Our G friends would all make fun of us
and A we'll just laugh along because we D know
That none of them have felt this Bm way
De G lilah I can promise you
That A by the time we get through
The Bm world will never ever be the same
And you're to A blame


D Hey there Delilah
You be F#m good and don't you miss me
Two more D years and you'll be done with school
And F#m I'll be making history like I Bm do A   G
You'll know it's A all because of Bm you  A   G
We can do what A ever we want Bm to  A   G
Hey there  Del A  ilah here's to Bm you
This one's for A you


Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me...........
