[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Once I saw
the most beautiful girl
[C]Sitting next to [G]me
I [C]asked her what [G]was her name
She [D]said it [G]was 'Laurie'

[Verse 2]
She worked at the store
and I opened that door
[C]Just to see her [G]face
She [C]always made me [G]feel at home
I [D]never felt out [G]of place

[Verse 3]
But [G]she already had a boyfriend

[Verse 4]
An [C]undertaker was [G]he

[Verse 5]
And [C]they got [G]married
[D]And

[Verse 6]
had a little [G]baby

[Verse 7]
[G]I became obsessed with death,

[Verse 8]
my friend
[C]Certain that it would happen to [G]me

[Verse 9]
And [C]I would be i[G]n the hands

[Verse 10]
Of [D]my dear Laur[G]ie

[Verse 11]
I [G]can't explain such love aflame

[Verse 12]
I [C]overcame victori[G]ous

[Verse 13]
[C]Filled my heart [G]with such desire

[Verse 14]
So [D]grand and [G]so glorious

[Verse 15]
Laurie, sweet, an [G]angel dear

[Verse 16]
Is [C]here with me [G]today

[Verse 17]
[C]Not a person, but a [G]memory

[Verse 18]
With [D]me will [G]always stay.

[Outro 1]
