[A]
When I'm not with you [D] I step in my car [Em] and I drive into places [A] that I think you are.
If you're not there, [D] well I might get a heart.
[Em] I dream about your [A] face in the [F#m] charcoal valley.
[D] Can't you [E] see?
[G#m] When I disappear [E] and I will be missed, [G#m] I don't let you know [E] that I exist [F#m] at all.
[D] [A] When I'm in a party [D] with a machine, [E] oh I know there's no way [A] she'd be leaving me.
I happen to see [D] her with another guy.
[E] He was tall and handsome, [A] I was jealous and shy.
[F#m] Oh, Valerie.
[D] Can't you [E] see?
[F#m] When I [G#m] disappear [D] and I will [E] be missed, I don't let you know [D] that I [E] even exist [F#m] at all.
[D] [F#m]
[D] [E] [F#m] Valerie.
[D] [E] Ooh, [F#m] Valerie.
[D] [A] She's the girl [D] that everybody was after.
[E] First you're with [A] her and then you're past her.
I should be jealous [D] cause I wanted to catch her.
[E] I thought I was quicker [A] but I guess she was faster.
