The Civil Wars - The One That Got Away

[verse]
Dm
  I never meant to get us in this deep
Bb
I never meant for this to mean a thing
Gm
Oh, I wish you were the one
F                 Am            Dm
Wish you were the one that got away
Dm
I got caught up by the chase
Bb
And you got high on every little bit
Gm
I wish you were the one
F                 Am            Dm
Wish you were the one that got away

[chorus]
Gm             Dm         Am
Oh, if I could go back in time
               F             Gm
When you only held me in my mind
        Dm             Am       F
Just a longing gone without a trace
Gm            Dm    Am             Bb
Oh, I wish I never ever seen your face
  Gm
I wish you were the one
 F                Am            Dm
Wish you were the one that got away

[verse]
Dm
I miss the way you wanted me
Bb
When I was staying just out of your reach
Gm
Begging for the slightest touch
F                 Am          Dm
Ooh, you couldn't get enough, mmm

[chorus]
Gm             Dm         Am
Oh, if I could go back in time
               F             Gm
When you only held me in my mind
        Dm             Am       F
Just a longing gone without a trace
Gm            Dm    Am             Bb
Oh, I wish I never ever seen your face
  Gm
I wish you were the one
 F                Am            Dm
Wish you were the one that got away

[bridge]
Dm
Got away from me
Dm
Got away from me
For anybody has to breathe

[chorus]
   Gm          Dm         Am
Oh, if I could go back in time
               F             Gm
When you only held me in my mind
        Dm             Am       F
Just a longing gone without a trace
Gm            Dm    Am             Bb
Oh, I wish I never ever seen your face
  Gm
I wish you were the one
  Gm
I wish you were the one
  Gm
Oh, I wish you were the one
 F                Am            Dm
Wish you were the one that got away
