intro: :| dm7/9 | E7/9 |: (played three times)
| dm7 | E7/9 |
She sends me blue valentines
| dm7 | | E7/9 |
All the way from Philadelphia
| dm7 | | E7/9 |
To mark the anniversary
| am | | A7 |
Of someone that I used to be
| dm7 |
And it feels just like theres
| E7/9 | am | | A7 |
A warrant out for my arrest
| dm7 | | E7/9 | am | | A7 |
Got me checkin in my rearview mirror
| dm7 | | E7/9 |
And I'm always on the run
| am | | A7 |
Thats why I changed my name
| B7 | | B7 | | E7/9 |
And I didn't think you'd ever find me here
(same as above:)
(note: you can play | dm7/9 | instead of | dm7 | on the first three lines
of the following verses. i think he always plays the | dm7/9 |-chord
but doesn't always make it up to the e'-string.)
To send me 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
solo
(same chords as verse)
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
In the nightstand drawer
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
Remember that I promised I would
Write you...
| dm7 | E7/9 |
These blue valentines
| dm7/9 | E7/9 |
blue valentines
| dm7/9 | E7/9 | am |
blue valen - tines
