Intro: G 

Verse 
    G                   C          G 
I'm not gonna talk like she was my friend 
        Dm         C          G 
But she died and I started to cry 
         C                                  G 
She hung out in the village wherever I hung out 
                                    D7       G   
Didn't know her well at all but her soul was fine 

        G                       C      G 
She saw many of the same things I have seen 
      Dm              C         G 
And I bet she had her own grand dreams 
      C                                G 
Now a girl just a few years older than me 
                                     D7        G 
Has been taken from the world for no reason it seems 



Pre-Chorus 
C                   G         Dm 
I see a million bad people a day 
      C                             G          Dm 
And I know they bad people but they won't go away 
     C                      G                   Dm 
They bump in on places everywhere that you'll see 
         C                          G           Dm 
So who decided she was gonna be the person to leave 
                 C   
It could've been me, 

 
C      Em           D               G 
So eas ily ,another good girl goes away 
          C               G 
While the bad guys get to stay 
        D                             C 
I don't get it, I don't know what to say 
        -                          G 
And I'm sorry you were thrown away 


Verse 
    G                     C        G 
She could've done so much more but now 
    Dm              C      G 
The chance has been taken away 
  C                                  G 
I wish I could've done something for her 
                                 D7         G 
Like go and get death and try to get in his way 

  G                    C      G 
A life cut short while others drag 
    Dm        C         G 
And plot, and steal and scheme 
      C                                  G 
Now a girl from the same damn village as me 
                                     D7        G 
Has been taken from the world for no reason it seems 



Pre-Chorus 
C                   G         Dm 
I see a million bad people a day

And I know they bad people but they won't go away 
     C                      G                   Dm 
They bump in on places everywhere that you'll see 
         C                          G           Dm 
So who decided she was gonna be the person to leave 
                 C   
It could've been me, 


C      Em           D               G 
So eas ily ,another good girl goes away

And I'm sorry you were thrown away

     And I'm sorry you were thrown away
