[Verse]
C
Summer after high school when we first met
Em
We make out in your mustang to Radiohead
Am F
And on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos
C
Used to steal your parent's liquor and climb to the roof
Em
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Am F
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you
[Chorus]
C Em
In another life I would be your girl
Am F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
C Em
In another life I would make you stay
Am F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away.
[Verse]
C
I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Em
Never one without the other we made a pact
Am F
Sometimes when I miss you I put those records on... woe
C
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Em
Saw you downtown singing the blues
Am F
It's time to face the music I'm no longer your muse
[Chorus]
C Em
But in another life I would be your girl
Am F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
C Em
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.
Em Am F
The one the one the one
G
The one that got away.
[Bridge]
Am F
All his money can't buy me a time machine. No.
G Am F
Can't replace you with a million rings. No.
Em Am F
I shoulda told you what you meant to me. Woe.
G
Cause now I pay the price.
[Chorus]
C Em
In another life I would be your girl
Am F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
C Em
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.
[Outro]
Em Am F
The one the one the one
C Em
In another life I would make you stay
Am F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F~
The one that got away.
