[Verse 1]

  D                                                                       
                                     
Summer after high school, when we first met
  A                                                                          
                                  
We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
 Bm                                       G                                  
                                    
And on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos
         D                                                                                  
                   
Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof
 A                                                                                 
                           
Talk about our future like we had a clue
  Bm                                      G                
                                                     
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Chorus]
            D                     A                
                                                             
In another life, I would be your girl
                    Bm                         G         
                                                        
We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
            D                      A                             
                                               
In another life, I would make you stay
                   Bm                             G           
                                                   
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
 G     
                                                                                                        
The one that got away
                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Verse 2]

 D  
                                                                                                           
I was June, and you were my Johnny Cash
  A    
                                                                                                        
Never one without the other, we made a pact
  Bm                                           G                      
                                           
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, woah
  D                                                                                    
                        
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
  A                                                                    
                                        
Saw you downtown, singing the blues
      Bm                                        G              
                                                  
It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse
                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Chorus]

            D                     A                     
                                                        
In another life, I would be your girl
                      Bm                       G           
                                                     
We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
            D                      A                         
                                                  
In another life, I would make you stay
                    Bm                            G         
                                                     
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
  G
                                                                                                            
The one that got away
                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Interlude]

D            A    
                                                                                              
The one-----
             Bm

The one-----
             G

The one-----
                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Bridge]

 A                              Bm           A         
                                                           
All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
 A                         Bm            A                         
                                               
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
 A                             G              A               
                                                   
I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa
 A                                                          
                                                   
'Cause now I pay the price
                                                                                                              
                                                                                                              
[Chorus]

                 D                    A        
                                                                 
But in another life, I would be your girl
                      Bm                       G        
                                                         
We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world
            D                       A                 
                                                          
In another life, I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
 G
                                                                                                             
The one that got away

The one

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
                  D                          
                                                                  
The one that got away
