No time to crank the sun

And dry our hair

Before we go.

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

Someday.

No time to change our minds,
E A E B
The pricks are always
A E B
On our heels.
E E A E F#m E C#m
No time to fight about it,

This time we can't
A E B
Be late.
C# A#7/G#
[Chorus 1]
F#m D
I was driving,
A
Taking chances,
E
Walking way too far out on
F#m
Some broken branches.
D
Sometimes where you're going
A E
Is hard to see.
F#m D
I always knew there was
A
Something missing.
E
They said no one could ever get me
F#m
To sit and listen.
D
I was always
A
Trying to leave.
E F#m D
Babe, it got away from me.
A E
It got away from me.
[Verse 2]
E E B E A E B
No time to plant our feet.
E A E B
These things they always

Come from nowhere.

No time to lay around,

We'll come back
A E B
Someday.
C# A#7/G#
[Chorus 2]
F#m D
Nothing will ever just
A
Come to you, it's only
E
What you find around and
F#m
What you do.
D
If you don't hold it tight
A E
It'll leave.
F#m D
I kept see in you
A
All around me.
E
I couldn't just stand here and wait
F#m
Until you find me.
D
I had to take you to make you
A
Believe.
E F#m D
Babe, it got away from me.
A E
It got away from me.
F#m
It got away from me.
"In the word 'me', hard strumming following the pattern:
F#m D A E "
[Bridge]
F#m D A
E F#m D
It got away from me.
A E
It got away from me.
[Outro]
F#m D
If I wasn't so gone tonight
A E
I'd try to explain (it got away from me).
F#m D
Some people just know what they want,
A E
It doesn't change.
F#m D
If I wasn't so gone completely
A E
This would feel like pain.
F#m D A E F#m
Some people just know what they want.
