Gm
I was one as you were one
F                                 D#
And we were two so much in love forever
                        A#/D
I loved the white socks that you wore
                         Gm/D#                        Dm
But you don't wear white socks no more, now you're a woman
   Gm
I joked about your turned-up nose
F
And criticized your school girl clothes
D#                                          A#     Gm7/D# Dsus4 D
But would I then have paced these roads to love you?

Chorus:
A7sus4       A7 Dm
For seasons come and seasons go
A7sus4           A7 Dm
Bring forth the rain, the sun and snow
               Gm
Make Valerie a woman
                F
And Valerie is lonely

Em                      Am
No more to roam on the snow hills of Hienton
     Em                             Am              Am7/G
Undecided with the guardians of the older generation
   F
A doormat was a sign of welcome
C
In the winter months to come
            Dm
And in the summer laughing
             Am
Through the castle ruins we'd run
Em                             Am
For the quadrangle sang to the sun
                      Em
And the grace of our feeling
                       F                       C
And the candle burned low as we talked of the future
                Dm
Underneath the ceiling
Gm
There were tears in the sky
F                                      D#
And the clouds in your eyes were just cover
                          A#/D
For your thighs were the cushions
               Gm/D#          D7sus4 D7
Of my love and yours for each other

Chorus

A#                        G#
The songs still are sung.
It was fun to be young.
     D#              F            Gm
But please don't be sad where you are.
                F                 D#
I am who I am. You are who you are.
A#/D            Gm7/D#
Now Valerie's a woman.
Now Valerie's a woman.
Now Valerie's a woman.
