[Intro 1]
[Em][B][Bsus4][Em][Am][Em][Bm][Em]
[Am][Em]
[Am][Em]
There was a girl I [B]used to know

[Verse 1]
[Em]
She was [Am]oh so beautiful
[Em]But she's not here[B] anymore[Bsus4]
[Em]She had a co[B]llege degr[Bsus4]ee
[Em]Smart as anyon[Am]e could be
[Em]She had so much to live for
But she fell [Am]in love
With the wrong kinda [Em]man

[Verse 2]
He ab[Am]used her love and
treated her so [Em]bad
There was [Am]not enough
education in her [Em]world
That [A]could save the life
of this little [Baug]girl
[B]How come,

[Verse 3]
[E]how[B] long
It's not [D]right, it's so [C#]wrong
Do we let [F#m]it just go on
Turn our [Bsus4]backs and carry on
Wake up[E], for it's too l[B]ate
Right now, [D]we can't wait
[C#]She won't have a sec[F#m]ond try

[Verse 4]
Open [Bsus4]up your hearts
As [B]well as [Baug]your eyes[Em]
[Bsus4][Em][Am][Em]
She tried to [B]give a cry [Bsus4]for help[Em]
She even blamed [Am]things [Em]on herself
But no one [B]came to her [Em]aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we [Bsus4]could tell
[Em]That's what we'd like to tell ours[Am]elves

[Verse 5]
[Em]But no, it wasn't that[B] way[Em]
So she fell [Am]in love
With the wrong kinda [Em]man
And she paid [Am]with her life
For loving that [Em]man
So we cannot [Am]ignore,
We must look for the [Em]signs
And maybe [A]next time we could save some[Baug]body's l[B]ife
