Key: G
Introduction:
G
Hey girl...
Em
I wrote you a new song...
Am D
About Valentine's Day-ay-ay...
And how it's one fat lie!
G
If you Google St. Valentine's history
Em
You're gonna find out he's a bit of a mistery
Am
There's debate among the who, when, where and why
D
The church says there's three Saint Valentines!
G
The stories all vary, but they all agree
Em
He was beaten and killed pretty terribly
Am
Stories galore of his courageous acts
D(ºnce)
Though none of them are based on historical facts
G
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
Em
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Am
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
D
Don't you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
G
Nobody really knows who St. Valentine was
Em
So they gave him lots of story... just because
Am
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
D
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
G
We spend 20 billion dollars a year
Em
On roses and heart-shaped souvenirs
Am
Sentimental ads try to tug at our heartstrings
D
"Show her you love her with a 40,000 dollars ring!"
G
So it goes, we'll drive to Walmart
Em
Buy a rose, and a card from Hallmark
Am
Surprise you're girl
"Oh Honey, you're so sweet!"
D(ºnce)
But is it really that sweet when there's a deadline to meet?
G
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
Em
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Am
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
D
Don't you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
G
Our economy depends on it every year
Em
It's really less about love, more related to fear
Am
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
D
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
Em Bm
I'm not trying to hate on couples on this holiday
C D G
Love can be so beautiful in oh so many ways
Em
Why you gotta have to wait
Bm
To take your mate out on a specific date
Am D(ºnce)
When you got 365 days a year?
NO CHORDS
G
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
Em
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Am
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
D
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie-
It's over!
