Thought I'd post a more accurate version of this, in the correct key, (you could tune down to Eb
and transpose to give 'nicer' chords). The other version posted is Ok but contains some errors.

Intro: Bb
Verse 1:
Bb F Gm Dm
I once had a girlfriend, but then one day she dumped me
D# F Bb
And everywhere I go people would ask me where she was
Chorus:
D# F D# F D# F Bb
I don't want to talk about her, someone always asks about her, so I tell them all my girlfriend's dead

D# F Bb
Or a great big truck ran her over and chopped off her head
Chorus:
D# F D# F D# F Bb
I don't want to talk about her, someone always asks about her, so I tell them all she's dead
Verse 3:

D# F Bb
Or the looks on their faces when I tell them how she passed away

D# F D# F D# F Bb
I don't want to talk about her, someone always asks about her, so I tell them all she's dead

D# F Bb
Jump off a building and join her in heaven
