The Killers - The Ballad Of Michael Valentine: chords

    C                G/B A#
Michael plays with stars
             F/A              Dm          A/C#
Soul Sister won't you take a ride in his car
         C
Late to call
         G/B          C
When you wanted to be all
                   G/B     A#
Baby, baby, don't be so shy
               F/A                Dm
Rock children hold your heads up high
       A/C#            C
In the night while I try
              G/B            C
And tell the ballad of Valentine
C
You got it bad, but you know it's true

C
I caught up with a friend in Dallas
   Em
We took a trip to New Orleans
        Am
Those black-eyed ladies
 F                 G
Won't say they're sorry
    C
We finally caught a train to Memphis
      Em
Where everybody talks the same
        Am
Those blue suede babies
F            G
All know my name

Chorus:
            C
And I said hold tight
                         G        A
Can't you see that it's hurting me
E         D    C  E/G#
But I've got the buzz
      Am
Like Marlon Brando
 C            F                   G
Michael Valentine, can't we unite?

We ended up in North Dakota
Although my heart's in Mexico
My muñequita
Abre tus ojos

With your new suit, and your black tie
Hold on, you're just a gambling man,
all proper like
I broke to the right and I caught your eye
Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
Tonight,
I am not going to let you rain on this parade

Chorus:
And I said hold tight
Can't you see that it's hurting me
But I've got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Straight-faced with misery tonight

And I will not lie when
I say I am not cold no more
But I've got the buzz
Like Greta Garbo
Walking forwards in the sun
And I've got a coat tail left to ride

Well uh oh
I know he's going to be there tonight
