[G]
Once I saw the most beautiful [C] girl sitting [G] next to me.
[C] I wonder [G] what was her [D] name.
She said it [G] was Laurie.
She worked in the store.
I'd often open that [C] door just to [G] see her face.
She [C] always [G] made me feel at home.
I [D] never [G] felt out of place.
But she already had a [C] boyfriend.
An [G] undertaker was he.
[C] And they [G] got [D] married and had a [G] little baby.
I became obsessed with death, my [C] friend.
Certain it would [G] happen to me.
[C] And I would [G] be in the [D] hands of my [G] dear Laurie.
I can't explain such love [C] affliction.
I [G] overcame the importance.
[C] Filled my [G] heart with such desire, so [D] grand [G] and so poignant.
Laurie, sweet and angel, [C] dear, is here with [G] me today.
[C] It's not in [G] person, but a memory [D] with me will [G]
always stay.
