C
Sometime after joining, when we were cadets
Em
You made a first impression, I’d never forget
Am                                      F
You showed me love and kindness, a stranger you just met
        C
Used to steal the captains’ liquor and climb to the roof
Em
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Am                                       F
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you


[Chorus]

            C                   Em
In another life I would be your girl
                Am                         F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            C                    Em
In another life I would choose to stay
                   Am                            F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F
The one that got away.


[Verse]

C
I was always with you, a well-known fact
      Em
Never one without the other we made a pact
Am                                           F
Sometimes when I miss you, I act like you aren’t gone
C
Then someone says my name and I’m pulled from the past
Em
The time we had together, it went by too fast
Am                                             F
It’s time to face the music, we were never made to last


[Chorus]

               C                   Em
But in another life I would be your girl
                Am                         F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            C                    Em
In another life I would make you stay
                   Am                            F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F
The one that got away.
C         Em        Am
The one   the one   the one
F
The one that got away.


[Bridge]

G                            Am         Dm   G
All this money can't buy me a time machine. No.
                        Am           Dm    G
Can't replace you with a million rings. No.
                           Am          Dm
I never told you what you meant to me (whoa)
G
And now I pay the price.


[Chorus]

           C                    Em
In another life I would be your girl
                Am                         F
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            C                    Em
In another life I would make you stay
                   Am                            F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F
The one that got away.
C         Em         Am
The one   the one    the one
F
The one that got away.


[Outro]

            C                    Em
In another life I would make you stay
                   Am                            F
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
F N.C.
The one that got away.
