Verse 1:
D
You left a guy who told you
G A
where to be and when
D
I was with a girl who tried
G A
to sleep with my best friend
Bm
We both took comfort in
G
each other's messy lives
D
Finding warmth on that
A
cold November night
D
We swore it'd be years
G
before we brought that on
A D
again Days later you said
G
that we should be more
A
than just friends
Bm
I let my guard down cause
G
the feelings were so strong
D
But acted stupid and
A
that's when he came along
Chorus 1:
G
It's been so long
A
I should just move on
D
There's other
A/C# Bm
fish in the sea
G
But I keep hoping that
A A--C#m--D--E-D-C#m- x2
you'll swim back home to me
Verse 2:
D
We'd sneak out and go
G A
swimming late at night
D
You're one of few who
G A
can say they've seen me cry
Bm
You got my quirkiness and
G
awkward sense of humor
D
We shared Simpson quote and
A
started made up rumors
D
If night turned into day
G A
you'd hide me from your mom
D
I could never fight with you
G A
cause you were never wrong
Bm
This time especially
G
the blame is all on me
D
If I'd not screwed things
A
up I wonder where we'd be
(Repeat Chorus 1)

One day for no reason
Em Bm
I broke our date
D
So you made other

plans that day

And that's when
D G
you met him
Em G
And why you're still
A
with him today
Chorus 2:

It's been so long

I should just move on

But I keep hoping that

I'm just glad I got
A
a chance to know you
G
You'll forever be

the one that got away
