[Verse 1]
B B F# B E B F#
No time to crank the sun
B E B F#
And dry our hair

Before we go.

No time to lay around,
B C#m B G#m
We'll come back
E B F#
Someday.

No time to change our minds,
B E B F#
The pricks are always

On our heels.
B B E B C#m B G#m
No time to fight about it,
B C#m B G#m
This time we can't
E B F#
Be late.
G# F7/D#
[Chorus 1]
C#m A
I was driving,
E
Taking chances,
B
Walking way too far out on
C#m
Some broken branches.
A
Sometimes where you're going
E B
Is hard to see.
C#m A
I always knew there was
E
Something missing.
B
They said no one could ever get me
C#m
To sit and listen.
A
I was always
E
Trying to leave.
B C#m A
Babe, it got away from me.
E B
It got away from me.
[Verse 2]
B B F# B E B F#
No time to plant our feet.
B E B F#
These things they always

Come from nowhere.
B B F# B C#m B G#m
No time to lay around,
B C#m B G#m
We'll come back
E B F#
Someday.
G# F7/D#
[Chorus 2]
C#m A
Nothing will ever just
E
Come to you, it's only
B
What you find around and
C#m
What you do.
A
If you don't hold it tight
E B
It'll leave.
C#m A
I kept see in you
E
All around me.
B
I couldn't just stand here and wait
C#m
Until you find me.
A
I had to take you to make you
E
Believe.
B C#m A
Babe, it got away from me.
E B
It got away from me.
C#m
It got away from me.
"In the word 'me', hard strumming following the pattern:
C#m A E B "
[Bridge]
C#m A E
B C#m A
It got away from me.
E B
It got away from me.
[Outro]
C#m A
If I wasn't so gone tonight
E B
I'd try to explain (it got away from me).
C#m A
Some people just know what they want,
E B
It doesn't change.
C#m A
If I wasn't so gone completely
E B
This would feel like pain.
C#m A E B C#m
Some people just know what they want.
