**This is another one of my favorite songs..actually all I've been submitting here are
favorite. I know this isn't 100% correct (strumming parts), but I guess you could say
really close. Listen to the song for the timing, plucking and strumming. There are 2
playing in this song but I'm only going to do one (lead guitar).
**This goes out to the Besties (Mark Aquino, Ralph Malate, Jeb Aquino), and to the Al'a
XYZ.. :)

The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
(Repeat Chorus)

Valentine

Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
G C9
'Cause I want to hold yours too
Em7 G
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds

But it's time for me to go home
Am Em7
It's getting late, dark outside
D Em7 C9
I need to be with myself instead of calamity
D
Peace, Serenity
