Summer after high school when we first met, [G#m]
we'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead.
[C#m] And on my 18th birthday, we got matching [A]
tattoos.
[E] Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof.
[G#m]
Talk about our future like we had a clue.
[C#m]
Never planned that one day I'd be losing [A]
you.
Be [E]
[G#m] your girl.
We keep all [C#m] our promises.
BS against [A] the world.
And
[E] they make you [G#m]
stay.
So I don't have to [C#m]
say you were the one that got [A]
away.
The one that got away.
[E] I was tuned in, you were my Johnny Cash.
[G#m] Never one without the other, you made it hot.
[C#m] Sometimes when I miss you, I put those [A] records on.
[E] Someone said you had your tattoo removed.
[G#m] Saw you downtown singing the blues.
[C#m] It's time to play some music.
I'm no [E] longer [A] your mule.
[E]
Be [G#m] your girl.
We keep all [C#m] our promises.
BS against [A] the world.
And [E] they make you [G#m] stay.
So I don't have to [C#m] say you were the one that got [A] away.
The one that got [E] away.
The one.
[G#m] The one.
[C#m] The one.
[A] The one that got [B] away.
All this money can't [G#m] buy me [C#m] a time [F#m]
machine.
[B] No.
Can't replace you with [C#m] a million [F#m]
rings.
No.
[B] I should have told you [C#m] what you meant to [F#m]
me.
[B]
Now I pay the price.
[E]
Be [G#m] your girl.
We keep all our [C#m] promises.
BS against [A] the world.
And they [E]
make you [G#m] stay.
So I don't have to [C#m] say you were the one that got [A] away.
The one that got [E] away.
[G#m] The one.
[C#m] The one.
