One That Got Away

Chords

D                               C           
I stood by the exit door of the hotel cafe 
       G   
He was playing with his band 
D                               C                          G 
I've always been a sucker had a weakness for a boy with a guitar and a drink in his hand 
D                               C 
His words were like heaven in my hurricane 
G
My knees buckled under 
I thought everyone was watching me 
D                     C             G                  
Watching you save my life with the song 

Em
You were mine 
                  A
In the back of my mind 
                Em
Oh just for one night 
           A
Just for a while 

D              C              G 
There's always one that gets away 
D                      C                 G  
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away 

D                                     C  
Two weeks later I was sitting in his apartment 
               G
He was making cappuchino 
          
I said what kind of man makes cappuchino 
D
We laughed 
We laughed 
We laughed 
C                                G 
We laughed til tears ran down my face 
D                            C
Oh but my man you're someone elses man 
                  G
And that aint the man that I want 
             D                        C              G   
But you keep drawing me in with those big brown lion eyes 

Em
You'll always be mine 
                  A
In the back of my mind 
            Em
Oh we had a night 
              A 
Just a little wine 

D              C              G
There's always one that gets away 
D                      C                  G
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away 
D                 C           G       
In a closed off corner of my heart yes 
D         C            G
I'll always see your face 

The one that got away 
D
One that got away 
C
The one that got away 
G
The one that got away 
G
Oh the one that got away 
D
The one that got away 
C
Oh the one that got away 
G
The one that got away 
G                   Em
Oh the one that got away 
     A
Yeah yeah 
       Em
Oh oh oh oh 
      A
Yeah yeah 
G
Oh 
D                       C
I'm not a victim of cliches 

I don't believe in soul mates 
G
Happy endings only one 
D                    C 
Oh and I met you and all that changed 
        G
I had a taste and you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue 

Em
You were mine 
             A
Somewhere in time 
                   Em
I'll look for you first 
            A
In my next life
