Valentines Day Is A Lie Chords

  			

 
 

              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 
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single 
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby 
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry 
Don't you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie 

        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!
