Valerie Plame Chords & Lyrics - Decemberists

Oh Valerie Plame [G]
If that really is [Am]your name
I would just shout[C] the same
To the world [G]

Dear Valerie Plame [G]
So they made a wreck of [Am]you
But give me the rest of [C]you
[G] [F#]/[G]
And I'll give the world

[Em]But you were just some silly girl [Am]
Taking in t[C]he sights of your empire's colony [G]

[Em]So I took you into my confidence [Am]
Without a though[C]t of consequence [G]
[D]To my heart or to my mind [D7] [G]

But Valerie Plame[G]
If that really is [Am]your name
I would just shout t[C]he same
To the world [G]

Verse Chords over top
La da da de da
la de da da
la de da da da da dada da

Oh Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same
From up high

Dear Valerie Plame
I'll look for that long exchange
Outside of the Bureau Change
In Shanghai

But I was just some stupid boy on a bus
When your nom de guerre was Codename Caroline

And so my Vespa became your chariot
From the Green Zone Marriott
To be etched upon my mind

But Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same
To the world

La da da de da
la de da da
la de da da da da dada da

[F] [Am] [G]/[Am] [F]
And when they flashed your picture 'cross the screen
[Am] [G]/[Am] [F]
How my heart seemed to leap out of me
[Am] [G]/[Am] [F]
And they attached a list of your identities
But the one y[Em]ou'll always be

Is Valerie Plame[A]
If that really is [Bm]your name
I would just shout th[D]e same
To the world [A]

Valerie plame [A]
If that really is[Bm] your name
I would just shout the[D] same
To the world [A]
