Am       Am+7       Am7          Am6
My funny valentine, sweet, comic valentine -

F           Dm7     Dm6     E7     Dm     E7
You make me smile with my heart.

Am              E7        Am7    Am6
Your looks are laughable, unphotographable,

F             Dm7      Fm       G7
Yet you're my favorite work of art.


Bridge:

        C      G7        C
Is your figure less than Greek?

Dm7 G7   C      Dm7     C       
Is your mouth a little weak?

Dm7   G7  CM7  E7+    E7     Am        FM7     F7
When you open  it  to speak, are you smart?


E7  Am             Am+7   
But don't change a hair for me,

Am7        Am6
Not if you care for me -

 F          Bm7-5       E7     Am     C7
Stay, little val - en - tine, stay!

 F   FM7    Dm7         G7    C     F7    E7
Each day is val - en - tine's day.


Bridge:

E7   Am            Am+7   
But don't change a hair for me,

Am7        Am6
Not if you care for me -

 F          Bm7-5       E7     Am    C7
Stay, little val - en - tine, stay!
 F   FM7    Dm7         G7     C    Fdim    CM7
Each day is val - en - tine's day.
