The Girl I Knew by Lawson
The Girl I Knew
G C
Thought love had come my way
Am D
When I saw you face to face
G C
When you looked at me that way
Am D
In Covent Garden that day
Hm C D G
What did I do wrong to make you doubt me?
C G D
Why did you change?
Chorus:
G C D
The girl I knew always made me smile
Em C G D
The girl I knew wanted my first child
G C D
The girl I knew wouldn't make me cry
C G Am
But she's gone and left home tonight
C Hm
Left me on my own tonight
G C
Of all the days we spent together
Am D
And the endless movie nights
G C
Said we'd always last forever
Am D
And I never thought you'd lie
Hm C D G
How did I lose my best friend?
Em C G D
And, what happens now?
CHORUS
C G
The girl I knew
D Hm
Wouldn't want more things I've ever had
C G
The girl I knew
D Hm
Told me I could always make her laugh
G C
Now she's living on her own
Am D
And she's listening to sad songs
G C
And I'm waiting for the day she calls my phone
Am D
And she says that she was wrong
CHORUS
C D G Am
The girl I knew please come home tonight
C Am Em D
The girl I knew always made things right
C D G Am
The girl I knew I can't live without
C G C
And I need you home tonight
D G
Just us, just you and I
