Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
D D D D
[Verse]
D G
Saint Valentine drove a red Continental
D A7
With a headlight out and a dent in the side
D G
He swore it wasn't his, it was only a rental
D A7 D
But he drove it every single night
D G
Saint Valentine wore shades and a cowboy hat
D A7
He looked straight outta Lonesome Dove
D G
You never saw his eyes but you knew down deep inside
D A7 D D
He was longin' for a long lost love
[Chorus]
Em A7
The original lover had a broken heart
D G
To the ground his blood did flow
D G
And for every drop that touched the earth
D A7 D D
A red, red rose did grow
[Instrumental]
D G D A7 D G D A7 D
[Verse]
D G
Saint Valentine ate pizza every Monday night
D A7
And chased it with Johnny Walker Black
D G
The waitresses would stare but he just didn't care
D A7 D
He just wanted his lover back
D G
Saint Valentine wore a T-shirt of the Virgin Madonna
D A7
With the sleeves cut out and a tear through the heart
D G
He wore it like a shield to protect his pride and honor
D A7 D D
He was tired of livin' so far apart
[Chorus]
Em A7
The original lover had a broken heart
D G
To the ground his blood did flow
D G
And for every drop that touched the earth
D A7 D D
A red, red rose did grow
[Instrumental]
D G D A7 D G D A7 D
D G D A7 D G D A7 D
[Verse]
D G
Saint Valentine would circle the shoppin' center mall
D A7
With his radio wailin' the blues
D G
He'd park outside the door of the video store
D A7 D
Like he was one of the chosen few
D G
Saint Valentine drove a red Continental
D A7
With a headlight out and a dent in the side
D G
He swore it wasn't real, it was only mental
D A7 D D
But he drove it every single night
[Chorus]
Em A7
The original lover had a broken heart
D G
To the ground his blood did flow
D G
And for every drop that touched the earth
D A7 D D
A red, red rose did grow
[Outro]

Repeat and fade
