Verse 1

CSummer after high school when we first met

EmWe make out in your Mustang to Radiohead

And Amon my 18th birthday we got matching Ftattoos

Used to Csteal your parents’ liquor and climb to the roof

EmTalk about our future like we had a clue

AmNever planned that one day, I’d be losing Fyou

Chorus

In another Clife

I would be your Emgirl

We keep all our Ampromises

Be us against the Fworld

In another Clife

I would make you Emstay

So I don’t have to Amsay

You were the one that got Faway

FThe one that got away

Verse 2

CI was June and you were my Johnny Cash

Never Emone without the other we made a pact

AmSometimes when I miss you

I Fput those records on

CSomeone said you had your tattoo removed

EmSaw you downtown singing the blues

AmIt’s time to face the music

I’m no longer your Fmuse

Chorus

In another Clife

I would be your Emgirl

We keep all our Ampromises

Be us against the Fworld

In another Clife

I would make you Emstay

So I don’t have to Amsay

You were the one that got Faway

FThe one that got away

Post-Chorus

CThe o-o-o-o-o-one

EmThe o-o-o-o-o-one

AmThe o-o-o-o-o-one

FThe one that got away

Bridge

GAll this money can’t buy me a Amtime machine, Fno

GCan’t replace you with a Ammillion rings, Fno

EmI should’ve told you what you Ammeant to me, Fwoah

G‘Cause now I pay the price

Chorus

In another Clife

I would be your Emgirl

We keep all our Ampromises

Be us against the Fworld

In another Clife

I would make you Emstay

So I don’t have to Amsay

You were the one that got Faway

FThe one that got away

Post-Chorus

CThe o-o-o-o-o-one

EmThe o-o-o-o-o-one

AmThe o-o-o-o-o-one    F
