Summer after high school when we first met

We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead

Talk about our future Like we had a clue

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

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
