Verse 2

[G]She was everything I thought I'd ever need

[Em]she's just a memory, a [C]whisper in the [G]wind,
[Em]ain’t never,ever [C]gonna have her back [G]again

[D]but time and distance wouldn't let us be
[Em]started drifting like clouds up in the sky
and[C]the quiet truth is I’m [D]still wondering [G]why
.

[Em]she's just a memory, a [C]whisper in the [G]wind,
[Em]ain’t never, ever [C]gonna have her back [G]again

And [D] now she's just a [C] girl, I used to[G] know

[C]Maybe in another life, we’ll meet [G]again
[C]over coffee share some remember [G]whens
[C]But now the past is gone, and all I can [G]say
Is that I [D]let her slip a[C]way, I let her slip a[G]way.

And [D] now she's just a [C] girl, I used to[G] know
So I can [Em]only raise my glass to the[C] girl that I once [G]loved
And [Em]toast to the memories that [C] I'm dreaming [G]of
She was the [Em] girl that I loved, but [C]somehow let her [G]go,
And [D] now she's just a [C] girl, I used to [G] know
And [D] now she's just a [C] girl,I used to [G] know
And [D] now she's just a [C] girl, I used to [G] know
