the one that got away
the civil wars
standard tuning or drop D tuning if you’re feeling funky .
[ verse 1 : ]
Dm
i never meant to get us in this deep
A#
i never meant for this to mean a thing
Gm
oh , i wish you were the one
F Dm
wish you were the one that got away
Dm
i got caught up by the chase
A#
and you got high on every little bit
Gm
i wish you were the one
F Dm
wish you were the one that got away
[ chorus : ]
Gm F Dm
oh , if i could go back in time
Gm
when you only held me in my mind
Dm Gm
just a longing gone without a trace
F Dm A#
oh , i wish i never ever seen your face
G
i wish you were the one
A# Dm
wish you were the one that got away
[ verse 2 : ]
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 Dm
ooh , you couldn’t get enough , mmm
[ bridge : ]
Dm
got away from me ( x2 )
for anybody has to breathe
the one that got away
the civil wars
standard tuning or drop D tuning if you’re feeling funky .
