(Verse)
     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
(Chorus)
         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
(Same pattern through out)
Well he said he loved me
And he cooked me dinner
He cut my lungs out
And made me feel thinner
And I'll never forget him
Now that it's over
The life that we had
When they strapped him down
Oh but how all the girls were jealous
Cause he liked me the best
Oh and I couldn't breathe
It was true love indeed
But now my grim prince is gone
Well I said I loved him
When they strapped him in
But he wasn't cryin'
He took it like a man
And the families watched him
As he breathed his last
But I got rather angry
I started to laugh
And say now he's got what's comin'
He was due his lot
Oh and I couldn't see, there were tears on my cheek
Goodbye my grim reaper prince
