     C
I was writing his story, And he gave me a look

    Am
He was very handsome, distractingly so

     C
and I never dreamed that he'd be my boyfriend

    Am
He wrote me letters, daily from prison

         F            G        C
That said I know I've killed a few

    F             G          C
But none of those women were you

F          G
I couldn't speak

       C        Am
It was over for me

  F        G           C
I found my grim reaper prince

        C
Well he said he loved me and he cooked me dinner

   Am
He cut my lungs out and made me feel thinner

         C
And I'll never forget him, now that it's over

    Am
The life that we had when they strapped him down

        F            G        C
Oh but how all the girls were jealous

    F             G          C
Cause he liked me the best

       F          G
Oh and I couldn't breathe

       C         Am
It was true love indeed

    F      G              C
But now my grim prince is gone

       C
Well I said I loved him when they strapped him in

    Am
But he wasn't cryin' he took it like a man

        C
And the families watched him as he breathed his last

      Am
But I got rather angry, I started to laugh

        F        G          C
And say now he's got what's comin'

F      G       C
He was due his lot

       F          G               C           Am
Oh and I couldn't see, there were tears on my cheek

  F        G           C
Goodbye my grim reaper prince

  F        G           C
Goodbye my grim reaper prince
