[Intro]
| Em B7 | Em B7 | Em B7 | Em | (x2)
Em Am Em

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
But she fell in love 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]
| Am | Em Am | Em Am | Em |

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