Intro:
[C/G]Michael plays with stars [G] [A#]
Soul Sister [F]won't you take a [Dm]ride in his [A]car
Late to [C/G]call
When you [G]wanted to be [C]all
Baby, baby, don't [G]be so shy [A#]
Rock children [F]hold your heads up [Dm]high
In the [A]night while I [C]try
And tell the [G]ballad of Valentine
[C]You got it bad, but you know it's true
Verse:
[C]I caught up with a friend in Dallas
[Em]We took a trip to New Orleans
[Am]Those black-eyed ladies
[F]Won't say they're [G]sorry
[C]We finally caught a train to Memphis
[Em]Where everybody talks the same
[Am]Those blue suede babies
[F]All know my [G]name
Chrous:
And I said [C]hold tight
Can't you see that it's [G]hurting me [A]
[E]But I've [D]got [C]the [E]buzz
[Am]Like Marlon Brando
[C]Michael Valentine, [F]can't we unite? [G]
Verse:
[C]We ended up in North Dakota
[Em]Although my heart's in Mexico
[Am]My muñequita
[F]Abre tus [G]ojos
With your[C]your new suit, and you[Em]your black tie
Hold on[Am]on, you're just
a gambling man, all [F]proper like [G]
I [Dm]broke to the right and I [G]caught your eye
[C]Shut your mouth and [Am]wave goodbye
[F]Tonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this[G]this parade
Chorus:
And I said [C]hold tight
Can't you see that it's [G]hurting me [A]
[E]But I've [D]got [C]the [E]buzz
[Am]Like Marlon Brando
[C]Straight faced with[F]with misery tonight [G]
And I will [C]not lie when I
say I ain't [G]cold no more [A]
[E]But I've [D]got [C]the [E]buzz
[Am]Like Greta Garbo
[C]Walking forward [F]to the sun
[G]And I've got a coat tail left to ride [Am]
Well uh [F]oh
I know he's [C]gonna be [G]there tonight
