Verse 1:

 C

Summer after high school when we first met

 Em7

We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead

  Am                                                       F

And on my 18th Birthday We got matching tattoos

     C

Used to steal your parents’ liquor And climb to the roof

Em7     

Talk about our future Like we had a clue

Am                                                     F

Never planned that one day I’d be losing you

 

* Chorus:

C                          Em7

In another life I would be your girl

    Am                                   F

We keep all our promises Be us against the world

C                              Em7

In another life I would make you stay

  Am                                         F

So I don’t have to say You were the one that got away

    C

The one that got away

 

 Verse 2:

C

I was June and you were my Johnny Cash

      Em7

Never one without the other We made a pact

Am                                                                 F

Sometimes when I miss you I put those records on (whoa)

C

Someone said you had your tattoo removed

Em7

Saw you downtown singing the Blues

 Am                                                       F

It’s time to face the music I’m no longer your muse But *

C          Em7      Am       F 

The one The one The one The one that got away

 

 

Bridge:

G                                         Am       F           

All this money can’t buy me a time machine (No)

G                                 Am     F        

Can’t replace you with a million rings (No)

G                                      Am         F               G

I should’ve told you what you meant to me (Whoa) ‘cos now I pay the price *
