Song: The Ballad of Michael Valentine
Artist: The Killers
Album: Sawdust
Tabbed by Fear-the-Reaper
Standard Tuning

One of the so many less popular great Killers songs. This is a really
simple basic way to play it. Enjoy :]



Intro:

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


Verse:

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


Chrous:

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


Verse:

C
We ended up in North Dakota
Em
Although my heart's in Mexico
Am
My muñequita
F G
Abre tus ojos
C Em
With your new suit, and your black tie
Am F G
Hold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper like
Dm G
I broke to the right and I caught your eye
C Am
Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
F G
Tonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this parade


Chorus:

C
And I said hold tight
G A
Can't you see that it's hurting me
E D C E
But I've got the buzz
Am
Like Marlon Brando
C F G
Straight faced with misery tonight
C G A
And I will not lie when I say I ain't cold no more
E D C E
But I've got the buzz
Am
Like Greta Garbo
C F
Walking forward to the sun
G Am
And I've got a coat tail left to ride
F
Well uh oh
C G
I know he's gonna be there tonight


Outro - C
