GMe and Valentina went down to the chapel but the Cgates were shut
I had my Dvows in my pocket and a Cgold plated ring for my Amhoney loveD  
We headed Gdown Tropicana to the corner with the late night Crestaurant
We sat aDcross from each other 
When I Clooked in her eyes there was Amsomething goneD  
Was it Csomething that I said or did?
Was it Dsomething that I should have kept hid?
If you Gleave me D/F#hanging I Emdon't know Dwhat I'll Cdo
It doesn't Ammatter who's wrong or B7right
In the Emclear of the blue moonClight
DYou got me on my knees
Valentina, this is not like CyouD  
(Repeat the same progression throughout the rest of the song. :])
I got a job at the Nugget  
And I saved a thousand dollars for a brand new start
She said I didn't want to do it but I did it
Cause I didn't want to break your heart
The waiter whispered when he said 
We had to take the conversation to the parking lot
Please baby, please Valentina, baby you're the only thing I got
Was it something that I said or did?
Was it something that I should have kept hid?
If you leave me hanging I don't know what I'll do
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
In the clear of the blue moonlight
You got me on my knees
Valentina, this is not like you
I hear church bells ringing in my head 
And I take them everywhere I go
Valentina met a dealer and I heard they had a baby five months ago
Was it something that I said or did?
Was it something that I should have kept hid?
If you leave me hanging I don't know what I'll do
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
In the clear of the blue moonlight
You got me on my knees
Valentina don't say it's true
This is not like you
