Biography:
Del Amitri are a guitar-driven pop rock band that formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 1980, internationally known for the 1995 melodic rock hit "Roll to Me". They came together at school as teenagers when Justin Currie (bass and vocals), James Scobbie (guitar and vocals) and Donald Bentley (guitar) formed a band in reaction against the rest of the 'rockers' in the school. The name was chosen deliberately because it didn't mean anything but sounded a bit like someone's name.

There is a girl I used to know
G C D
She had a hundred ways of hurting you and so
C G D/F# C
I packed my bags and left her as she watched some tv show
D G
There is a girl I used to know
BRIDGE:
AM C G
So buy me one more drink before you go
AM C G
Or lend me a 20 and I'll get drunk on my own
AM C AM G
You always find some company, come in to use the phone
AM C AM C D
Someone who can't stand to see a friend go home alone
Verses , same as verse 1:
There is a town I used to love
It once contained most eveything I ever did dream of
My baby in the basement as the traffic trawled above
There is a town I used to love
There is a bar I used to know
I still sometimes drop by when I have no place else to go
It's where the kings of comedy, compare their tattered souls
There is a bar I used to know
There is a joke I used to tell
Some guy who gets 3 wishes, ends up wasting them to hell
And in the end in misery, he tells the joke himself
(play the next line as if it is the end of a verse, then repeat normal progression)
There is a guy I used to know
He once had everything that any man could hold
And now he sits here drinking, with a tale that always goes....
