G Am
Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
C G
i will shout the same to the world
G Am
dear Valerie Plame, so they made a wreck of you
C G
give me the rest of you, and I'll give the world
Em Am
and you were just some silly girl
C G
taking in the sight of your empire's colony
Em Am
so i took you into my confidence
C D G C G
without a thought of consequence to my heart or to my mind
G Am
Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
C G
i will shout the same to the world
G Am C G

G Am
oh valerie plame, if that really is your name
C G
i will shout the same from on high
G Am
dear valerie plame, i look for that long exchange
C G
outside the bureauchange in Shanghai
Em Am
i was just some stupid boy on a bus
C G
when you're nom de guerre was codename Caroline (codename Caroline)
Em Am
and so my vespa became your chariot
C G
from the greens of mariot, to be etched upon my mind
G Am
oh valerie plame, if that really is your name
C G
i will shout the same to the world
F Am Am/G F
And when they flashed your picture 'cross the screen
Am Am/G
how my heart seemed to leap out of me
F Am Am/G F
and they attached a list of your identities
E
but the one you'll always be
A Bm
is Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
D A
i will shout the same to the world
