Am Em F G C G
Put it in formaldehyde, and he did not look back,
C G
He placed the head on his mantelpiece,
Am Em
Where the family shots used to be,
F D/F# G E/G#
And he poured a Cognac.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am Am7/G
As the weeks went by,
F G
They saw eye to eye,
Am Am7/G
They were meant to be,
F E
It was destiny.
[Chorus]
C
She was all he wanted,
G Am
She was all that he’d been waiting for,
Am7/G F Em D/F# G
He knew for sure, he knew for sure,
C
She was all he wanted,
G Am
So he took her from the man next door,
Am7/G D/F# F C*
He loved her more, he loved her more.
[Verse 2]
N.C. C G Am
A year had passed when his neighbor knocked on the door,
Em F G Am Bm
And his heart just stopped, but he said, "Please come in",
C G
The next door man talked about his loss,
Am Em
But he never knew just how close he was,
F D/F# G E/G#
Cause she looked straight at him,
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am Am7/G
As the years went by,
F G
He quit asking why,
Am Am7/G
They were meant to be,
F E
It was destiny.
[Chorus]
C
She was all he wanted,
G Am
She was all that he’d been waiting for,
Am7/G F Em D/F# G
He knew for sure, he knew for sure,
C
She was all he wanted,
G Am
So he took her from the man next door,
Am7/G D/F# F D# F
He loved her more, he loved her more,
C
He loved her more.

[Verse 3]
C G
She'd been his life, his guiding star,
Am Em
So he took her out of her see-through jar,
F G Am Bm
Cause he knew it was time,
C G
He kissed her mouth, put her back inside,
Am Em
And he laid down and there he died,
F D/F# G E/G#
Next to his valentine.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Am Am7/G
No one ever knew,
F G
No one had a clue,
Am Am7/G
He was only missed,
F E
By the tax office.
[Chorus]
C
She was all he wanted,
G Am
She was all that he’d been waiting for,
Am7/G F Em D/F# G
He knew for sure, he knew for sure,
C
She was all he wanted,
Em Am
So he took her from the man next door,
Am7/G D/F# F C*
He loved her more, he loved her more.
