A

[Verse 1]
A                         D
When I'm not with you, I jump in my car
      E                        A
And drive to the place that I think that you are
    A                    D
If you're not there, I might just park
      E                           A
And dream about your face in the dark

[Chorus]
   F#m
Oh Valerie
 D              E
Can't you see
  F#m     G#m        D         E
If I disappear, I wouldn't be missed
  F#m              G#m          D    E       F#m    D
I don't think she knows that I even exist at all

[Verse 2]
         A                       D
Well, I went to a party where I knew she'd be
        E                            A
But I know there's no way she'd be leaving with me
  A                        D
I happened to see her with another guy
E                                A
He was tall and handsome, I was jealous and shy

[Chorus]
   F#m
Oh Valerie
D               E
Can't you see
  F#m     G#m        D         E
If I disappear, I wouldn't be missed
  F#m              G#m          D    E       F#m   D
I don't think she knows that I even exist at all
F#m   D   E    F#m
Oooo oooo - Valerie
F#m   D   E    F#m
Oooo oooo - Valerie

[Verse 3]
A                    D
She's the girl everybody is after
E                       A
First you're with her, then you're past her
A                         D
I shifted gears 'cause I thought I could catch her
   E                            A
I thought I was quicker, but I guess she was faster

[Chorus]
   F#m
Oh Valerie
D               E
Can't you see
  F#m     G#m        D         E
If I disappear, I wouldn't be missed
  F#m              G#m          D    E       F#m   D
I don't think she knows that I even exist at all
F#m   D   E    F#m
Oooo oooo - Valerie
F#m   D   E    F#m
Oooo oooo - Valerie
F#m   D   E    F#m
Ahhh ahhh - Valerie
F#m   D   E    F#m
Ahhh ahhh - Valerie
