[Em] [F#] [Em] [F#]
Oh, oh, [Em] [F#m] [Em]
[F#] [Em] [F#]
[Em] [F#] [Em]
[B] [Em] oh, [F#]
[Em]
[F#] [Em] [F#]
oh, oh, [Em] oh, [F#m] [Em]
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
There [F#] was a girl I used [Em] to know
She [F#] was oh so [Em] beautiful
[Bm] She's not here [Em] anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as [Am] anyone [Em] could be
She had so much to live for
She [Am] fell in love with the wrong [Em] kind of man
[Bm] He [Am] abused her, loved her, treated her [Em] so [D] bad
[G]
There [Am] was not enough education in [Em] her world
That [A] could save the life of this little [B] girl
Well, how [E] come, how [B] long
It's not [Bm] right, it's [C#] no wrong
[F#m] We'll let it just go on
Girls are [Em] fast and fair, people
[A] [E] Wake up, close your [B] eyes
Right [Bm] now we can [C#] wait
She [F#m] won't camp us, let guns ride
Move in, [B] ready or not
Well, it's your [Em] right
[F#] Tried [Em] [F#]
[Em] [Bm] [Em]
[F#] to give a crap [Em] for help
She [Am] even blamed things on [Em] herself
But no one [Bm] came to her [Em] aid
Nothing [F#] was wrong, [D] as far as we [Em] could tell
It's what [F#] we like to tell [Em] ourselves
[F#m] But no, it wasn't that [Em] way
So [C] she fell [G] in love [C] with the [Em] wrong kind [Bm] of man
[G] She [Am] painted the life of a lover that [Em] [D] man
[Em] We [Am] cannot allow
To look [Em] for a [Bm] surprise
[Em] And [A] maybe next time
We may see [B] somebody's fly
[E] How come, [B] how long
It's [Bm] not right, it's [C#] no wrong
[F#m] We'll let it just go on
[A] Girls are fast and fair, people
[E] Wake up, it's [B] too late
[Bm] Right now [C#] we can wait
She [A] won't have us, let guns ride
Open up your [B] heart as well as your [Em] eyes
[F#] [Bm] [Em] [F#]
[Em] [Bm] [Em]
[Bm] [Em] [Am]
[Em]
I [F#] owe the kids and bet [Em] that guy
It's [Am] getting to feel it deep [Em] inside
[Am] Superman [Em] won't let her ride
The way [Am] he [D] proves himself [Em] a man
Might [Am] be this [Em] woman with his dad
[F#] How is it she would [Em] see the [Bm] light
[Em]
How [C] can someone like this call [Em] himself a man
[Bm] He's not a man
Cause [Am] in reality, he's probably
[Em]
We can [Am] hear you now
And we see [Em] the light
[A] Crawl through the cotton of your sleeves
[B]
[E] How come, how [B] long
[Bm] It's not right, it's [C#] no wrong
[A] We'll let it just go on
Girls are fast and [E] fair, people
Wake up, it's [B] too late
[Bm] Right now we can [C#]
wait
[F#m] She won't have us, let guns [A] ride
Open up your heart as well as your [E] eyes
How come, [B] how long
It's [Bm] not right, [C#] it's no wrong
[F#m] We'll let it just go on
[E] [B] Girls are fast and fair, people
Wake up, [Bm] it's too late
Right now we [C#] can [F#m] wait
She won't have us, let guns ride
[A] Open up your [B] heart as well
[G] [E]
[B] as your eyes
