Start Jamming...
[Ab] Summer after high school when we first met
[Cm] We'd make [Ab] out in my Mustang to Radiohead
[Fm] And on your 18th birthday we got matching [Db] tattoos
[Ab] Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
[Fm] Never planning one day I'd be losing [Db] you
[Ab] In another life you would be my girl
We'd keep all our promises, be us [Eb] [Ab] against the world
In another life I would make you stay
So I don't have to [Fm] say you were the one [Ab] that got away
[Db] The [Ab] one that got away
You were tuning out with your Johnny Cash
[Cm] Now the one [Ab] without the other we made up [Fm] packed
Sometimes when I miss you I put those records [Ab] on
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the blues
[Fm]
It's hard to face the music, I'm no longer your muse
But in [Ab] another life you would be my girl
We'd keep all our promises, [Fm] be us against [Ab] the [Eb] world
[Fm] In [Eb] [Ab] another life I would make you stay
So I don't have to [Fm]
say you were the one that got away
[Eb] [Db] The [Eb] one that [Ab] got away [Eb] The [Ab] one
[Eb] [Ab] [Eb] The [Ab] [Eb] one
[Fm] [Eb] [Fm] The [Eb] one
The one that got away
[Fm] All this money [Cm] can't buy [Eb] me a time [Db] machine
[Eb] No,
[Fm] I can't [Ab] replace you with a million [Db] names
[Eb] No, [Fm] I [Cm] should have told you [Db] what you meant to me
Oh, [Eb]
[Fm] now I pay the [Db]
price
In another [Ab] life you would be [Cm] my [Ab] girl
We'd keep all [F] our [Fm] promises, be us against [Db] the world
[Ab] In another life I would make you stay
So I don't have [Fm] to say [Ab] you were the one that got [Db] away
[Ab] The one that got away The one
The [Db] [Ab] one
[Fm] The one
[Ab] The one that got away The one
The one
[Fm] The one [Ab] that got away
All this [Fm] money can't [Eb] [Ab] buy [Db] me [Eb] a time [Ab]
machine
No, I should have told you what you meant to me
Oh, [Fm] [Eb] [Ab]
[Eb] now I pay the price
We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life I would make you stay
[Ab]
