The One That Got Away
The Civil Wars
Standard Tuning or Drop D Tuning if you're feeling funky.
[Verse 1:]
Dm
I never meant to get us in this deep
Bb
I never meant for this to mean a thing
Gm
Oh, I wish you were the one
F Dm
Wish you were the one that got away
Dm
I got caught up by the chase
Bb
And you got high on every little bit
Gm
I wish you were the one
F Dm
Wish you were the one that got away
[Chorus:]
Gm F Dm
Oh, if I could go back in time
Gm
When you only held me in my mind
Dm Gm
Just a longing gone without a trace
F Dm Bb
Oh, I wish I never ever seen your face
G
I wish you were the one
Bb Dm
Wish you were the one that got away
[Verse 2:]
Dm
I miss the way you wanted me
Dm
When I was staying just out of your reach
Gm
Begging for the slightest touch
F Dm
Ooh, you couldn't get enough, mmm
[Bridge:]
Dm
Got away from me (x2)
For anybody has to breathe
