you belong to the gang, and you say you can't break away
Cmaj7>C6 G7 Cmaj7>C6 G7
but i'm here with my hands on my heart
our families can't agree, i'm your brother's sworn enemy
but i'll shout out my love to the stars
Am F Dm G
so wait for the stone on your window, your window
Am F Dm G
i'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go
when first we laid eyes, i admit to no compromise
till i felt my caress on your skin
but how soon we were betrayed, your sister gave us away
and you father came all unhinged

so wait for the stone on your window, your window
Am F Dm G G7
i'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go
C G
oh, valencia
Am F C
your blood still warm on the ground
G
valencia
Dm G
and i swear to the stars, i'll burn this whole city down
all i heard was a shout of your brother calling me out
and you ran like a fool to my side
and the shot, it hit hard, and your frame went limp in my arms
and the lull of love was your dying cry
so wait for the stone on your window, your window
i'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go
oh, valencia
your blood still warm on the ground
valencia
and i'll burn this whole city down
valencia
your blood still warm on the ground
valencia
and i swear to the stars, i'll burn this whole city down
props to mike k for chords and dave h for almost all the lyrics
