[Verse]
D* No, nothing good starts in a getaway car D It was the best of times, the worst of crimes A I struck a match and blew your mind Em G But I didn't mean it, and you didn't see it D The ties were black, the lies were white A In shades of gray in candlelight Em G I wanted to leave him, I needed a reason
[Pre-chorus]
D X marks the spot where we fell apart A He poisoned the well, I was lying to myself Em I knew it from the first old fashioned we were cursed G N.C. We never had a shotgun shot in the dark
[Chorus]
D You were driving the getaway car A We were flying, but we never get far Em G Don't pretend it's such a mystery, think about the place where you first met me D A Driving the getaway car, there were sirens in the beat of your heart Em G Should've known I'd be the first to leave, think about the place where you first met me D A Em In a getaway car, oh, no they never get far, oh G No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
D A Em G x2
[Verse]
D It was the great escape, the prison break A The light of freedom on my face Em G But you weren't thinkin' and I was just drinkin' D A While he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "Go, go, go!" A But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow Em G And a circus ain't a love story, and now we're both sorry (we're both sorry)
[Pre-chorus]
D X marks the spot where we fell apart A He poisoned the well, every man for himself Em I knew it from the first old fashioned we were cursed G N.C. It hit you like a shotgun shot to the heart
[Chorus]
D You were driving the getaway car A We were flying, but we never get far Em G Don't pretend it's such a mystery, think about the place where you first met me D A Riding in the getaway car, there were sirens in the beat of your heart Em G Should've known I'd be the first to leave, think about the place where you first met me D A Em In a getaway car, oh, no they never get far, oh G No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
D A Em G x2
[Chorus]
D I can see us lost in the memory A Em G August slipped away into a moment in time, 'cause it was never mine D And I can see us twisted in bedsheets A Em G August sipped away like a bottle of wine, 'cause it was never mine
[Bridge]
D A We were jet set, Bonnie and Clyde Em G 'Til I switched to other side, to the other side D A It's no surprise I turned you in, oh Em G 'Cause us traitors never win D A I'm in a getaway car, I left you in the motel bar Em G* Put the money in the bag and I stole the keys, that was the last time you ever saw me
[Chorus]
D A Driving in a getaway car, there were sirens in the beat of your heart Em G Should've known I'd be the first to leave, think about the place where you first met me D A Em In a getaway car, oh, no they never get far, oh G No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Outro]
D A I was ridin' in a getaway car, I was cryin' in a getaway car Em G I was dyin' in a getaway car, said goodbye in a getaway car D A Ridin' in a getaway car, I was cryin' in a getaway car Em G I was dyin' in a getaway car, said goodbye in a getaway car D With your face and the beautiful eyes A And the conversation with the little white lies Em And the faded picture of a beautiful night G* You carry me from your car up the stairs D And I broke down cryin', was she worth this mess? A After everything and that little black dress Em C* After everything, I must confess I need you
