Summer after high school when we first met
[B] We'd make out in your Mustang to ready your head
And [C#] on my 18th birthday we got matching [A] [B] tattoos
You [E] used to steal your parents' liquor and climb through the roof
[B] Talk about our future like we had a clue
[C#m] Never planned that one day I'd be [B] losing you
And I'll [E]
be [G#m] your girl
We keep all [C#m] our promises
But yes against [A] the world
And I'll
[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
I was Junior, my Johnny Cash
[B] Never one without the other, we made a pact
[C#] Sometimes when I miss you I put those [A] records [B] on
[E] Someone said you had your heart tied to a [B] moat
Saw you downtown singing the blues
[C#] Never planned that one day I'd be losing [A] [B] you
And I'll
[E] be your [G#m] girl
We keep all [C#m] our promises
But yes against [A] the world
And I'll
[E] make you [G#m] stay
So I don't have to [C#m] say you were
The one that got [A] away
Got [B] away
All this money can't buy me [C#m] a time [F#m] machine
[B] No, I 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
No, [B] cause now I'll pay the price
Cause in another
[E] night I would be your [G#m] girl
We keep all our [C#m] promises
But yes against [A] the world
In another [E] life I'll 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 that got [C#m] away
The [A] one that got away
