D F#m/C# Bm G
[Verse 1]
D
Summer after high school when we first met
F#m/C#
We make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
Bm G
And on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos
D
Used to steal your parent's liquor and climb to the roof
F#m/C#
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Bm G
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you
[Chorus]
D F#m
In another life I would be your girl
Bm G
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
D F#m
In another life I would make you stay
Bm G
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
D
The one that got away
[Verse 2]
D
I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
F#m/C#
Never one without the other, we made a pact
Bm G
And sometimes when I miss you I put those records on
D
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
F#m/C#
I saw you down town singing the blues
Bm G
It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse
[Chorus]
D F#m
In another life I would be your girl
Bm G
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
D F#m
In another life I would make you stay
Bm G
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
D
The one that got away
F#m/C# Bm G
The one, the one, the one
The one that got away
