Standard (EADGBE)

Summer after high school when we first met

We made out in your Mustang to Radio head

 And on my 18th birthday we got matching tattoos

 Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof

Talk about our future like we had a clue

Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

(Chorus)

 And in another life you would be my girl

 We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world

 And 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

(Verse 2)

(Play chords muted along to beat)

You were June and I was Johnny Cash

Never one, without the other, we made a pact

Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, whoa

Someone said that you had your tattoo removed

They said they saw you downtown just singing the blues

It's time to face the music, I'm longer your muse

(Chorus) (unmuted normal strum)

 And in another life you would be my girl

 We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world

 And in other 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

Whoa whoa whoa whoa

 Whoa whoa whoa whoa

 Whoa whoa whoa whoa

 The one that got away

 (continue )

And all this money cant buy me a time machine, No

 Cant replace you with a million rings, no

 I should have told you what you meant to me, whoa

 Cause now I pay the price

(Chorus as before)
