D C
I stood by the exit door of the hotel cafe
G
He was playing with his band
D C G
I've always been a sucker had a weakness for a boy with a guitar and a drink in his hand
D C
His words were like heaven in my hurricane
G
My knees buckled under
G
I thought everyone was watching me
D C G
Watching you save my life with the song
Em
You were mine
A
In the back of my mind
Em
Oh just for one night
A
Just for a while
D C G
There's always one that gets away
D C G
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away...
D C
Two weeks later I was sitting in his apartment
G
He was making cappuchino
G
I said what kind of man makes cappuchino
D
We laughed
D
We laughed
D
We laughed
C G
We laughed til tears ran down my face
D C
Oh but my man you're someone elses man
G
And that aint the man that I want
D C G
But you keep drawing me in with those big brown lion eyes
Em
You'll always be mine
A
In the back of my mind
Em
Oh we had a night
A
Just a little wine
{Chorus}
D C G
There's always one that gets away
D C G
The one that sneaks up on you that slips away
D C G
In a closed off corner of my heart yes
D C G
I'll always see your face
The one that got away
D
One that got away
C
The one that got away
G
The one that got away
G
Oh the one that got away
D
The one that got away
C
Oh the one that got away
G
The one that got away
G Em
Oh the one that got away
A
Yeah yeah
Em
Oh oh oh oh
A
Yeah yeah
G
Oh
D
I'm not a victim of cliches
C
I don't believe in soul mates
G
Happy endings only one
D C
Oh and I met you and all that changed
G
I had a taste and you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue
Em
You were mine
A
Somewhere in time
Em
I'll look for you first
A
In my next life
{Chorus}
