Valerie

Jerry Garcia Band

E Thing (x2)
          A                                                add4           E Thing
          Hey Valerie, Baby what's the matter with you? 
        A                                                      add4           E Thing
          I try to do all the things that you want me to do

                      Bm                                         A         E      add4
                         I went downtown with my pocket knife
                      Bm                                         A              E    add4
                         Cut your other man, but I spared his life
                      Bm                     A                      E Thing
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?

          Hey Valerie, baby what's the matter with you?
          Come on, tell me baby, tell me true

                         Hey now baby, what did I do?
                         I shot my dog 'cause he growled at you
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?

                                     B                                                   E
                                       Valerie what's the matter with me? 
                                         A                                      E
                                       I never ever done you no wrong
                                     B                                     E           A
                                       I sing the blues nearly all night long
                                     B                                                   E
                                       Valerie what's the matter with me? 
                                                              A                                 E  add4
                                       You know I'd do anything that you say
                                   Bm                                            A                               E Thing
                                       I can't understand why you tell me "Please go away"
                                                      *Solo*   (verse & chorus)

          I ain't afraid of the cold, cruel world outside
          No chicken little running from a falling sky

                         The only thing trouble's me is you
                         If you leave me what will I do?
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?

          You got me down on the knees of my shakin' feet
          Can't play the blues cause of you I drop the beat

                         Valerie what's your complaint?
                         I try to be everything I ain't
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?
                      Bm                     A                      E      A  E
                         Valerie won't you be good to me?
