[Verse]
CSummer after high school when we first met
EmWe make out in your mustang to Radiohead
Am FAnd on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos
CUsed to steal your parent's liquor and climb to the roof
EmTalk about our future like we had a clue
Am FNever planned that one day I'd be losing you
[Chorus]
C EmIn another life I would be your girl
Am FWe keep all our promises be us against the world
C EmIn another life I would make you stay
Am FSo I don't have to say you were the one that got away
FThe one that got away.
[Verse]
CI was June and you were my Johnny Cash
EmNever one without the other we made a pact
Am FSometimes when I miss you I put those records on... woe
CSomeone said you had your tattoo removed
EmSaw you downtown singing the blues
Am FIt's time to face the music I'm no longer your muse
[Chorus]
C EmBut in another life I would be your girl
Am FWe keep all our promises be us against the world
C EmIn another life I would make you stay
Am FSo I don't have to say you were the one that got away
FThe one that got away.
The one the one the one
The one that got away.
[Bridge]
G Am FAll his money can't buy me a time machine. No.
G Am FCan't replace you with a million rings. No.
Em Am FI shoulda told you what you meant to me. Woe.
GCause now I pay the price.
[Chorus]
C EmIn another life I would be your girl
Am FWe keep all our promises be us against the world
C EmIn another life I would make you stay
Am FSo I don't have to say you were the one that got away
FThe one that got away.
The one the one the one
The one that got away.
[Outro]
C EmIn another life I would make you stay
Am FSo I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F N.C.
The one that got away.
