The One That Got Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Summer after high school when we first met
We'd [Em]make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And [Am]on my 18th birthday
we got matching tat[F]toos
Used to [C]steal your parents' liquor
and climb to the roof
[Em]Talk about our future like we had a clue
[Am]Never planned that one day I'd be losing [F]you

[Chorus 1]
In another [C]life I would be your [Em]girl
We'd keep all our [Am]promises
Be us against the [F]world
In another [C]life I would make you [Em]stay
So I don't have to [Am]say you were
the one that got a[F]way

[Verse 2]
The one that got away
[C]I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never [Em]one without the other, we made a pact
[Am]Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records [F]on (whoa)
[C]Someone said you had your tattoo removed
[Em]Saw you downtown singing the blues
It's [Am]time to face the music,
I'm no longer your [F]muse

[Chorus 2]
But in another [C]life I would be your [Em]girl
We'd keep all our [Am]promises
Be us against the [F]world
In another [C]life I would make you [Em]stay
So I don't have to [Am]say you were
the one that got a[F]way

[Interlude 1]
The one that got away
[C]The one[Em]
The [Am]one
The [F]one

[Bridge 1]
The one that got away
[G]All this money can't buy me
a [Am]time ma[Dm]chine, [G]no
Can't replace you with a [Am]million [Dm]rings, no
[G]I should've told you
what you [Am]meant to [Dm]me (whoa)
[G]'Cause now I pay the price

[Chorus 3]
In another [C]life I would be your [Em]girl
We'd keep all our [Am]promises
Be us against the [F]world
In another [C]life I would make you [Em]stay
So I don't have to [Am]say you were
the one that got a[F]way

[Outro 1]
The one that got away
[C]The one (the one[Em])
The one (the [Am]one)
The one (the [F]one)
In another [C]life I would make you [Em]stay
So I don't have to [Am]say you were
the one that got a[F]way
The one that got away
[C]
