C           Am          F            C
Heartbreak, old friend, goodbye it's me again.
C        Am       F               C
Of late, I've had some thought of movin' in.
C          Am          F                 G
Of all the many ways a man will lose his home,
            C          Am              F                 C
Well, there ain't none better than the girl who's movin' on.

(chords same as first verse)
True love, I knew some thought of leavin' you.
Bad thoughts I had, when valentines were due.
Of all the many ways a man will break his heart,
Well there ain't none meaner than he pulls his own apart

CHORUS:
     G                         F           C
Valentine, the destroyer, Valentine, you belong
       F                C           G
In the stars, where you are, always rollin' on.
Am          E            F              G
Cried, I've cried till I couldn't carry on.
       C              Am                F            C
It's a lonely, lonely feelin' when your Valentine is wrong.
       C              Am                F            C
It's a lonely, lonely feelin' when your Valentine is wrong.

C          Am               F                 G

            C          Am              F                 C
Well, there ain't none better than the girl who's movin' on.
