[Intro]
C Dm F G C
[Verse 1]
C
We've all got that someone
Dm
Who slipped right through our hands
F C
An old t-shirt you still wear from time to time
It felt so right, on lonely nights
Dm
You wonder what could have been
G F C
A heart you can't believe you left behind
[Chorus]
C Dm
I wish you were the one that got away
G
If you were a memory
F C
I might still be in love with you today
Dm
It wouldn't hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
F G C
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
[Verse 2]
C Dm
You walk through the door and reach for that first beer
F C
Hit the couch and turn the TV on
C Dm
And I wake-up beside you and wonder why I'm still here
G F C
When everything we used to be is gone
[Chorus]
C Dm
I wish you were the one that got away
G
If you were a memory
F C
I might still be in love with you today
Dm
It wouldn't hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
F G C
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
[Bridge]
F
If you were just a picture
I pulled out of my dresser
Am7
To look at every now and then
F
Something bittersweet
Dm G
Something I could keep and have fun remembering
[Instr]
C Dm F G C
[Chorus]
C9 Am7 Dm
It wouldn't hurt this bad if I was looking back on an old heartache
F G C Dm
Oh I wish you were the one that got away
F G C
Yeah I wish you were the one that got away
[Outro]
