[Verse]
C
Summer after high school when we first met
Em
We make out in you mustang to radio head
Am F
And on my 18th birthday we bought 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 Am
In another life I would be your girl
Em 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
F
The one that got away.
[Verse]
C
I was June 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
C
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Em
Saw you down town singin 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
F
The one that got away.
C Em Am
The one the one the one
F
The one that got away.
[Bridge]

All his money can't buy me a time machine. no
G Am F
Can't replace you with a million rings. no

I shoulda told you what you meant to me. woe

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
F
The one that got away
Em Am F
The one, the one
C Em
In another life I would make you stay

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

The one that got away
