[Verse 1]
Eb5  Eb5             G5        Bb5
   Valentino's got a booky Shop
C5         Eb5
  and what he takes
        G5
He gives  for what he's got
Eb5         Eb5
   And what he's got
        G5     Bb5
He says he has not
C5       Eb5        G5
  Stolen from anyone

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
  It's not that
         Gm
He don't tell the truth
Cm
  Or even that
      F
He misspent his youth
Cm
  It's just that
        Gm
He holds  the proof
Ab
  But you feel there's
            Bb
Something's wrong

[Chorus]
    Eb
Waiting for an alibi
Waiting for an alibi
G5 Ab Bb    Eb
        Waiting for an alibi
Waiting for an alibi
G5 Ab Bb

[Verse 2]
Eb5  Eb5            G5   Bb5
   Valentino's in a cold sweat,
C5           Eb5
  Placed all his money
        G5
On that last bet
Eb5        Eb5
   Against the odds
           G5       Bb5
He smokes another cigarette
C5          Eb5                G5
  Says that it helps him to forget
That he's a nervous wreck

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm                 Gm
  It's not that he misses much
Cm                      F
  Or even that he's lost
His lucky touch
Cm                     Gm
  It's just that he gambles so much
Ab                       Bb
  And you know that it's wrong

[Chorus]
    Eb
Waiting for an alibi
Waiting for an alibi
    G5
Waiting just
                 Ab Bb
To catch your eye
    Eb
Waiting for an alibi
Waiting for an alibi
   G5                 Ab       Bb
Try  to say I told you  I told you

Waiting just to get you
Ab Bb    Eb
     Waiting for an alibi
Waiting for an alibi
   G5
Try  to say I told you

[Post-Chorus]

     Waiting for an alibi

        Waiting for an alibi
Oh, mamamama
