 Intro: | Em B7 | Em B7 | Em B7 | Em | (2 times)  Em Am Em
Em      Am              Em
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 kind 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 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 ....
