[Verse]
 
C                G
By all accounts, she almost drowned
                           F
When she was six in frigid water
                      C
And I can confirm she made
                         G
A curious child, ever reviled
                           F
By everyone except her own father
                        C
With a quite bewitching face
                               G
Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless
                              F
Excellent fun till you get to know her
                          C
Then she runs like it's a race
                                G
Behind her back, her best mates laughed
                           F
And they nicknamed her The Bolter
 
[Chorus]
 
C
Started with a kiss
                               G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
                                      F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
F
Out the drive one evening
 
 C
Ridin' in a getaway car
            G                               Dm
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
 
I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave
   F                                         C
Think about the place where you first met me
                        G
In a getaway car, oh-oh-oh
                              Dm
No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh
     F
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
 
[Verse]
 
C                        G
He was a cad, wanted her bad
                          F
Just like any good trophy hunter
                         C
And she liked the way it tastes
                          G
Taming a bear, making him care
                                   F
Watching him jump then pulling him under
                            C
And at first blush, this is fate
                              G
When it's all roses, portrait poses
                          F
Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats
                     C
What a charming Saturday
                                  G
That's when she sees the littlest leaks
G
Down in the floorboards
          F
And she just knows
F
She must bolt
          C
It was the great escape, the prison break
    G
The light of freedom on my face
                Dm
But you weren't thinkin'
               F
And I was just drinkin'
      C                                                  G
Well, he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!"
                                             Dm
But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow
 
And a circus ain't a love story
              F
And now we're both sorry (we're both sorry)+
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
C
X marks the spot where we fell apart
G
He poisoned the well, every man for himself
    Dm
I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
   F
It hit you like a shotgun, shot to the heart
 
(Oh!)
 
[Chorus]
           C
You were drivin' the getaway car
          G                          Dm
We were flyin', but we never get far
 
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
 F
Think about the place where you first met me
C
Started with a kiss
                               G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
                                      F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
F
Out the drive one evening
C
Ended with the slam of a door
                      G
Then he'll call her a whore
G
Wish he wouldn't be sore
               F
But as she was leaving
F
It felt like breathing
G               Am
All her fuckin' lives
                   F
Flashed before her eyes
G                 Am
It feels like the time
                     F
She fell through the ice
F
Then came out alive
 
[Bridge]
 
G
She's been many places with
Am
Men of many faces
              C
First they're off to the races
          C
And she's laughing drawin' aces
     G
But, none of it is changin'
         Am
That the chariot is waitin'
           C
Hearts are hers for the breakin'
        C
There's escape in escaping
 
[Chorus]
 
C
Started with a kiss
                               G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
                                   F
But it always ends with a town car speeding
F
Out the drive one evenin'
 
[Bridge]
 
D                 A                    Em
 We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde (oh-oh)
                              G
Until I switched to the other side
 
To the other si-i-i-i-ide
D                   A                 Em
 It's no surprise I turned you in (oh-oh)
                   Gm
'Cause us traitors never win
D
 I'm in a getaway car
A
 I left you in a motel bar
        Em
Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys
G
That was the last time you ever saw me
C
Ended with the slam of a door
                       G
But she's got the best stories
G
You can be sure
                F
That as she was leaving
F
It felt like freedom
 
[Outro]
 
G               Am
All her fuckin' lives
                   F
Flashed before her eyes
F
And she realized
G                 Am
It feels like the time
                     F
She fell through the ice
F
Then came out alive
