| She sends me b | lue valent | ines |
| Dm7 | E9 | |
| All the way from Philadelp | hia |
| Dm7 | E9 | |
| To mark the anniversary |
| Am7 | A7 | |
| Of someone that I | used to be |
| Dm7 | |
| And it feels just like theres |
| E9 | Am7 | A7 | |
| A warrant out for | my arrest |
| Dm7 | E9 | Am7 | A7 | |
| Got me | checkin in my | rearview mirror |
| Dm7 | E7 | |
| And I | 'm always on the run |
| Am7 | |
| Thats why I chan | ged my name |
| B7 | E9 | |
| And I didn't | think you'd ever find me | here |
| Chorus: |
| Dm7 | E9 | |
| To send me these | blue valen | tines |
| Dm7 | E9 | |
| b | lue valenti | nes |
| Dm7 | E9 | Am7 | |
| he | se blue val | entines |
| Blue valentines |
| Like half forgotten dreams |
| Like a pebble in my shoe |
| As I walk these streets |
| And the ghost of your memory |
| Is the thistle in the kiss |
| And the burgler that can break a roses neck |
| It's the tatooed broken promise |
| That I hide beneath my sleeve |
| And I see you every time I turn my back |
| She sends me blue valentines |
| Though I try to remain at large |
| They're insisting that our love |
| Must have a eulogy |
| Why do I save all of this madness |
| There to haunt upon my shoulders |
| Baby I know |
| I'd be luckier to walk around everywhere I go |
| With a blind and broken heart |
| That sleeps beneath my lapel |
| She sends me my blue valentines |
| To remind me of my cardinal sin |
| I can never wash the guilt |
| Or get these bloodstains off my handa |
| And it takes a lot of whiskey |
| To take this nightmares go away |
| And I cut my bleedin heart out every nite |
| And I die a little more on each St. Valentines day |
| Don't you remember that I promised I would |
| Write you... |
| These blue valentines |
| blue valentines |
| blue valentines |
