                                                    Hey there Delilah, don't you worry bout 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

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

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

    Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard, but just believe me girl some day 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

          OOOooh, it's what you do to meeee, Oh, it's what you do to me

                                                    Oooooh, it's what you do to meeee, Oh, it's what you do to me, what you do to me

    A thousand miles seems pretty far but they've got plains and trains and cars, I'd walk to you if I had no other way

                               Our friends would all make fun of us, and we'll just laugh along because, we know that none of them have felt this way

                                                                              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

                                                              Hey there Delilah you be good, and don't you miss me, two more years and you'll be done with school and I'll be

    making history 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--- OOoh it's what you do to me

                               Oh, it's what you do to me--- Oooh, it's what you do to me, ooh it's what you do to me, what you do to me

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
