   G                               
 I once new a girl I can't remember
                F                
 her name but I remember her face 
          C
cos her sister looked the same
           G                   
They both left school, but they 
                               F
couldn't find a job so they said 
                         C
farewell and stole a small town car
C                       Bb       
 As they were riding by the beach
           G
 some summer night
C                    Bb          
 The radio shouted out one of 
                G                  
those songs that might just change 
your life
               F

Throwing some poems to the ports 
and docks they were sleeping

outdoors puching all their luck
  C             G

           G                       
They sent me a letter full of pills
                               F
 and thrills. Then they both got 
rich and moved to Hollywood Hills.
