The One That Got Away The Civil Wars
(INTRO) Dm
(VERSE)
I [Dm]never meant to get us in this deep
I n[Bb]ever meant for this to mean a thing
Oh, I w[Gm]ish you were the one
[F]Wish you were the [Em]one that got [Dm]away
[Dm]
[Dm]I got caught up by the chase
And [Bb]you got high on every little game
I w[Gm]ish you were the one
[F]Wish you were the [Em]one that got a[Dm]way
(CHORUS)
[Bb]Oh, if[Am] I could g[Dm]o back in ti[F]me
When you o[Gm]nly he[Bb]ld me in my mind
J[Am]ust a l[Dm]onging gone [F]witho[Gm]ut a [Am]trace
[Bb]Oh, I [Am]wish I'd n[Dm]ever e[F]ver s[Gm]een your f[Bb]ace
F-Gm (Slide quickly)
I wish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got aw[Dm]ay
[Dm]I miss the way you wanted me
[Dm]When I was staying just out of your reach
[Gm]Begging for the slightest touch
[F]Ooh, you couldn't g[Em]et enough, [Dm]mmm
(CHORUS)
[Bb]Oh, if[Am] I could g[Dm]o back in ti[F]me
When you o[Gm]nly he[Bb]ld me in my mind
J[Am]ust a l[Dm]onging gone [F]witho[Gm]ut a [Am]trace
[Bb]Oh, I [Am]wish I'd n[Dm]ever e[F]ver s[Gm]een your f[Bb]ace
I w[F-Gm]ish you were the one
Wish you were the one that got [Dm]away
(Bass solo)
[Dm]Got away from me
[Dm]Got away from me
[Dm]Before anybody has to bleed
(CHORUS)
[Bb]Oh, if[Am] I could g[Dm]o back in ti[F]me
When you o[Gm]nly he[Bb]ld me in my mind
J[Am]ust a l[Dm]onging gone [F]witho[Gm]ut a [Am]trace
[Bb]Oh, I [Am]wish I'd n[Dm]ever e[F]ver s[Gm]een your f[Bb]ace
I w[F-Gm]ish you were the [F-Gm]one
I Wish you were the one
I wish you were the one
[Am]I Wish you were the one that got [Dm]away
