Intro:  | em B7 | em B7 | em B7 | em |  (2 times)

    em                        am                em
1.        There was a girl I used to know
                am                em
She was oh so beautiful
                        am          em
But she's not here anymore
em                     am               em
       She had a college degree
                am                    em
Smart as anyone could be
                        am            em
She had so much to live for

                            am
Bridge 1: But she fell in love
                 em
With the wrong kinda of man
         am                                                      em
He abused her love and treated her so bad
                   am                                            em
There was not enough education in her world
                     A                                    B7
That could save the life of this little girl

Chorus:
          E                B
How come, how long
            Bm                C#
It's not right, it's so wrong
            F#m
Do we let it just go on
                                           B
Turn our backs and carry on
           E                      B
Wake up, for it's too late
           Bm                  C#
Right now, we can't wait
                   F#m
She won't have a second try
                         B7
Open up your hearts
                            em
As well as your eyes

Interlude: | em | em | em | em |

2. She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
That's why we'd like to tell ourselves
But not! It wasn't that way

Bridge 2: So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda of man
And she paid with her life
For loving that man
So we can not ignore
We must look for the signs
And maybe next time we might save somebody's life

>>Chorus<<

Solo: | em am | em am | em | em |  (2 times)

3. There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she's not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for

>>Bridge 1<<

>>Chorus<<

Coda:  | em am | em am | em am | em |
             | em am | em am | em | em | em |
