[D] [A] [Gm] [F#]
[D] [A] [N] Okay, this song is about a girl named Valerie.
[A] She lives way up north in Berkeley, [G] California.
[E]
[A] [G]
[A] [G]
[A] I'm a guy that likes to be [D] watched.
I'm in my car [E] and I drive to a place [A] that I think that you are.
If you're not there, oh [D] well, I might just fly.
[E] And cheat my [A] factual face in [E] the dark.
[F#m] Oh, Valerie, [D] can't you [E] see?
[G#m] Well, I disappear, but [E] I wouldn't be missed.
[G#m] I don't think she knows that [D] I even [E] exist [F#m] at all.
[D] Then [A] I went [D] to a party where I mishear your face.
[E] Though I know that no way she [A] could leave me.
I happened to see her [D] with another [G] guy.
[E] He was tall and handsome, [A] I was just a [F#m] child.
Oh, Valerie, [G]
can't you [E] see?
[G#m] Yeah, I disappear, [G#] but I wouldn't [E] be missed.
[G#m] I don't think she knows [D] that I even [E] exist at [F#m] all.
[D] [Bm]
[F#m] [D] [E] [F#m]
Valerie, oh, [D] [E] [F#m] Valerie.
[D]
[A] She's [D] the girl that [G] everybody's after.
[E] First you're with [A] her, then you're past her.
I should [D] eat it, but I wanna do that later.
[E] I thought I [A] was queer, but I guess she's a spatter.
[F#m] Oh, Valerie, [G] can't you see?
[E]
[G#m] Yeah, well, I disappear, but [D] I wouldn't [E] be missed.
[F#m] I don't think [G#m] she knows [D] that I even [E] exist [F#m] at [D] all.
[F#m] [D]
[E] [F#m] Valerie, oh, [D]
[E] [F#m] Valerie.
