CAPO 3
[Intro]
Am Am C G
[Verse]
G Am
Valerie was queen of the sweets
C G
Different kinds all in a line
Am
With heart shaped chocolates in the window
C G
For some passing valentine
Am
Patron of the oldest school
C G
With plenty of mouths to feed
Am
She was just a little hard on the boy
Am C G
Now Sheldon’s nowhere to be seen
[Chorus]
Em C
I bet you don’t breathe easy
G
And now that he’s gone
Em
Because you sure don’t
C G
Sleep easy and knowing he’s wrong
Am
Good old valerie
B7
Reluctantly shouldering arms
C D G
Says he’ll be back before too long
[Verse]
G Am
She sent the poor boy packing
C G
And mustered up a touch stone wave
Em
And looking back over the years
C G
I suppose it’s a dead giveaway
G Em
She drove the same boy home to me
C G
And said you know blood’s thicker than water
Em
You wouldn’t think to look at her but man
C G
Shell crush your spirits in a pestle and mortar
[Chorus]
Em C
I bet you don’t breathe easy
G
And now that he’s gone
Em
Because you sure don’t
C G
Sleep easy and knowing he’s wrong
Am
Good old valerie
B7
Reluctantly shouldering arms
C D G
Says he’ll be back before too long
[Chorus]
Em C
I bet you don’t breathe easy
G
And now that he’s gone
Em
Because you sure don’t
C G
Sleep easy and knowing he’s wrong
Am
Good old valerie
B7
Reluctantly shouldering arms
C D G
Says he’ll be back before too long
