E
Summer after high school when we first met
Abm
We make out in you mustang to radio head
    C#m                                        A
And on my 18th birthday we bought matching tattoos
        E
Used to steal your parent's liquor and climb to the roof
Abm
Talk about our future like we had a clue
      C#m                                A
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

            E                   Abm
In another life I would be your girl
                C#m                        A
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            E                    Abm
In another life I would make you stay
                   C#m                            A
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

E
I was June you were my johnny cash
      Abm
Never one without the other we made a pact
C#m                                           A
Sometimes when I miss you I put those records on woah
E
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Abm
Saw you down town singin? the blues
     C#m                                       A
It's time to face the music I'm no longer your muse

            E                   Abm
In another life I would be your girl
                C#m                        A
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            E                    Abm
In another life I would make you stay
                   C#m                            A
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

E         Abm         C#m         A
  The one     the one     the one   the one that got away

B                              C#m        A
  All his money can't buy me a time machine no
B                          C#m         A
  Can't replace you with a million rings no
B                             C#m       A
  I shoulda told you what you meant to me woah
B
  Cause now I pay the price

            E                   Abm
In another life I would be your girl
                C#m                        A
We keep all our promises be us against the world
            E                    Abm
In another life I would make you stay
                   C#m                            A
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

E         Abm         C#m         A
  The one     the one     the one

            E                    Abm
In another life I would make you stay
                   C#m                            A
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
                  E---- (strum once and let it ring)
The one that got away

About this song: The One That Got Away

The The One That Go Away Songfacts says: The song was chosen to be the sixth single from Teenage Dream. "I'm so pleased to select 'The One That Got Away' as my sixth single because this song shows a very different side of me that I haven't shown with my past singles on this record," said Perry. "I think that everyone can relate to this song. I wrote (it) about when you promise someone forever, but you end up not being able to follow through. It's a bittersweet story. Hopefully, the listener learns from hearing it and never has to say they had 'The One' get away.
