[Intro]
N.C
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Verse 1]
FIt was the best of times, the worst of crimes
GI struck a match and blew your mind
GmBut I didn't mean it
CAnd you didn't see it
FThe ties were black, the lies were white
GIn shades of gray in candlelight
GmI wanted to leave him
CI needed a reason
[Pre-Chorus]
FX marks the spot where we fell apart
GHe poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myself
GmI knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
CWe never had a shot, gunshot in the dark
(Oh!)
[Chorus]
FYou were drivin' the getaway car
G GmWe were flyin', but we never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
CThink about the place where you first met me
FRidin' in a getaway car
G GmThere were sirens in the beat of your heart
I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave
C FThink about the place where you first met me
GIn a getaway car, oh-oh-oh
GmNo, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh
CNo, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Verse 2]
FIt was the great escape, the prison break
GThe light of freedom on my face
GmBut you weren't thinkin'
CAnd I was just drinkin'
F GWell, he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!"
GmBut with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow
And a circus ain't a love story
CAnd now we're both sorry (we're both sorry)
[Pre-Chorus]
FX marks the spot where we fell apart
GHe poisoned the well, every man for himself
GmI knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
CIt hit you like a shot, gunshot to the heart
(Oh!)
[Chorus]
FYou were drivin' the getaway car
G GmWe were flyin', but we never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
CThink about the place where you first met me
FRidin' in a getaway car
G GmThere were sirens in the beat of your heart
I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave
C FThink about the place where you first met me
GIn a getaway car, oh-oh-oh
GmNo, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh
CNo, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Bridge]
G F Fm We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde (oh-oh)
GUntil I switched to the other side
To the other si-i-i-i-ide
G F Fm It's no surprise I turned you in (oh-oh)
Gm'Cause us traitors never win
G I'm in a getaway car
F I left you in a motel bar
FmPut the money in a bag and I stole the keys
GThat was the last time you ever saw me
(Oh!)
[Chorus]
GDrivin' the getaway car
F FmWe were flyin', but we never get far (don't pretend)
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
GThink about the place where you first met me
GRidin' in a getaway car
F FmThere were sirens in the beat of your heart (should've known)
I shoulda' known I'd be the first to leave
G GThink about the place where you first met me
FIn a getaway car, oh-oh-oh
FmNo, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh
GNo, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Outro]
GI was ridin' in a getaway car
FI was cryin' in a getaway car
FmI was dyin' in a getaway car
GSaid goodbye in a getaway car
GRidin' in a getaway car
FI was cryin' in a getaway car
FmI was dyin' in a getaway car
G GSaid goodbye in a getaway car
