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,

The world will never ever be the same, And you’re to blame.

Like I do, You’ll know it's all because of you,

We can do whatever we want to,

Hey there Delilah here's to you, This one’s for you.
