Lyrics
There’s
a (Bb)pic ture that I (F)car ry,
(Bb)one we (F)made
some time a go.
When they ask
who’s (Bb)in the pic ture (F)with me,
(Bb)I just (F)say,
“Some (C7)one I used to (F)know.
Just some (Bb)one
I used to spend some (F)time with,
(Bb)just a (F)flame
that’s lost its glow.”
I don’t tell them of the (F7)nights I cry with (Bb)out you,
I say, (F)“Just
some (C7)one I used to (F)know.
Just some (Bb)one
I used to run a (F)round with,
(Bb)just a (F)friend
of long a go.”
I don’t tell them how (F7)lost I am with (Bb)out you,
I say, (F)“Just
some (C7)one I used to (F)know.”
(Bb)I say, (F)“Just
some (C7)one I used to (Bb)know.”
