Standard (EADGBE)

 Got an old Smiths' record and I put it on endlessly.

 To mourn a lethal fascination of a girl named Valerie.

 She got a triple X rating and maybe someday she'd have married me.

 But, she was born to keep me waiting. Her name was Valerie.

With a little more time, I was thinking we could've worked

 my hooks into you.

 Over a recent complication I came to find that she'd tired of me.

 She wrote the book of Revelations. Her name was Valerie.

With a little more time, I was thinking

 we could've worked my life around you.

With a little more time...

Whoooo!

 Her name was Valerie, Valerie.

 Her name was Valerie, Valerie.

 Her name was Valerie, Valerie.

 Her name was Valerie.
