[E]
Summer after high school when we first met
[G#m] We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
[C#m] You know my 18th birthday we got matching [A] tattoos
Used [E] 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
And I know
[E] if I would be [G#m] your girl
We'd keep all [C#m] our promises, BS against [A] the world
And I know
[E] if I would make [G#m] you stay
So I don't have to [C#m] say you were the one that got [A] away
The one that got [E] away
I was June and you were McJohnny Cash
[G#m] Never one without the other, we made a pact
[C#m] Sometimes when I miss you I put those [A] records on Woah
[E] Someone said you had your tattoo removed
[G#m] Saw you downtown singing the blues
[C#m] It's time to face the music, I'm no longer [A] your muse
And [E] another life
I would be [G#m] your girl
We'd keep all [C#m] our promises, BS against [A] the world
And another
[E] life
I'd make [G#m] you 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
[G#m] one, [C#m] the one,
[A] the one, [B] the one
All this money can't buy [C#m] me a time [F#m] machine [B] No
Can't replace you [C#m] with a million [F#m] rings No
[B] I should have told you [C#m] what you meant to [F#m] me [B] Woah
Cause now I pay the price
And [E] another life
I'd be [G#m] your girl
We'd keep all [C#m] our promises, BS against [A] the world
And another [E] life
I'd make [G#m] you stay
So I don't have to [C#m] say you were the one that [A] got away
The one that [E] got
[G#m] away
[C#m] The [A] one
And another [E] life
I would make [G#m] you stay
So I don't have [C#m] to say you were the one that got [A] away
The one that got away
