The One That Got Away Chords

[Intro]
D C G   x2
 
[Verse 1]
D                               C
I stood by the exit door of the hotel cafe
       G
He was playing with his band
     D                           C                          G
I've always been a sucker, had a weakness for a boy with a guitar and a drink in his hand
    D                            C
His words were like heaven in my hurricane
   G
My knees buckled under, I thought everyone was watching me
D                     C           G
Watching you save my life with a song
 
[Pre-chorus 1]
         Em
You were mine
                  A
In the back of my mind
                 Em
Oh, just for one night
           A
Just for a while
 
[Chorus]
D              C              G
There's always one that gets away
    D                  C                  G
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away
 
[Verse 2]
D                                     C
Two weeks later I was sitting in his apartment
                      G
He was making cappuccino
 
I said what kind of man makes cappuccino
   D
We laughed, we laughed, we laughed
C                                 G
We laughed 'til tears ran down my face
  D                           C
Oh, but my man you're someone else's man
                   G
And that ain't the man that I wanna want
             D                        C               G
But you keep drawing me in with those big brown lyin' eyes
 
[Pre-chorus 2]
                 Em
You'll always be mine
                  A
In the back of my mind
             Em
Oh, we had a night
              A
Just a little while
 
[Chorus]
D              C              G
There's always one that gets away
    D                  C                   G
The one that sneaks up on you, that slips away
D                C            G
In a closed off corner of my heart, yes
D         C            G
I'll always see your face
 
[Bridge]
 
The one that got away
D
One that got away
C
The one that got away
G
The one that got away
G
Oh, the one that got away
D
The one that got away
C
Oh, the one that got away
G
The one that got away
G                     Em
Oh, the one that got away
     A
Yeah yeah
       Em
Oh oh oh oh
      A
Yeah yeah
G
Oh
 
[Verse 3]
D                       C
I'm not a victim of cliches
 
I don't believe in soulmates
G
Happy endings or the one
D                     C
Oh, and I met you and all that changed
        G
I had a taste and you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue
 
[Pre-chorus 3]
         Em
You were mine
             A
Somewhere in time
                  Em
I'll look for you first
           A
In my next life
 
REPEAT CHORUS!
