Jack Douglass - Valentines Day Is A Lie Chords

CAPO 3

              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?

        G
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single

          D
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie-

It's over!
