[Intro] G6add11 [Verse 1]
C                  G6add11
By all accounts, she almost drowned

                           F
When she was six in frigid water

                      C
And I can confirm she made

                      G6add11
A curious child, ever reviled

                           F
By everyone except her own father

                        C
With a quite bewitching face

                               G6add11
Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless

                              F
Excellent fun 'til you get to know her

                         C
Then she runs like its a race

                                G6add11
Behind her back, her best mates laughed

                           F
And they nicknamed her The Bolter
[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss

                               G6add11
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

                                      F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding

F
Out the drive one evening

C
Ended with the slam of a door

                      G6add11
Then he'll call her a whore

G6add11
Wish he wouldn't be sore

              F
By as she was leaving

F
It felt like breathing

G6add11         Am
All her fuckin' lives

                   F
Flashed before her eyes

G6add11           Am
It feels like the time

                     F
She fell through the ice

F
Then came out alive
[Verse 2]
C                        G6add11
He was a cad, wanted her bad

                          F
Just like any good trophy hunter

                         C
And she likes the way it tastes

                          G6add11
Taming a bear, making him care

                                   F
Watching him jump then pulling him under

                           C
And at first blush this is fate

                             G6add11
When its all roses, portrait poses

                          F
Central Park lake in tiny rowboats

                C
What a charming Saturday

                                  G6add11
That's when she sees the littlest leaks

G6add11
Down in the floorboards

             F
And she just knows

F
She must bolt
[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss

                               G6add11
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

                                      F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding

F
Out the drive one evening

C
Ended with the slam of a door

                      G6add11
Then he'll call her a whore

G6add11
Wish he wouldn't be sore

               F
But as she was leaving

F
It felt like breathing

G6add11         Am
All her fuckin' lives

                   F
Flashed before her eyes

G6add11           Am
It feels like the time

                     F
She fell through the ice

F
Then came out alive
[Bridge 1]
G6add11
She's been many places with

Am
Men of many faces

              C
First they're off to the races

          C
And she's laughing drawing aces

     G6add11
But, none of it is changin'

          Am
That the chariot is waitin'

           C
Hearts are hers for the breakin'

         C
There's escape in escaping
[Bridge 2]
D                A                  Em
We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde (oh-oh)

                              G
Until I switched to the other side
To the other si-i-i-ide
D                   A              Em
It's no surprise I turned you in (oh-oh)

                        Cadd9
'Cause us traitors never win

D
I'm in a getaway car

A
I left you at the motel bar

        Em
Put the money in the bag and I stole the keys

G
That was the last time you ever saw me
[Chorus]
D
Drivin' the getaway car

            A
There were sirens in the beat of your heart

Em
Should've known I'd be the first to leave

G                                         D
Think about the place where you first met me

                        A
In a getaway car, oh-oh-ohh

                                  Em
No, they never get far, oh-oh-ohh-ahh

    G
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
[Outro]
      D
I was ridin' in a getaway car

      A
I was cryin' in a getaway car

      Em
I was dyin' in a getaway car

       G
Said goodbye in a getaway car

D
Ridin' in a getaway car

       A
I was cryin' in a getaway car

      Em
I was dyin' in a getaway car

      G                    D
Said goodbye in a getaway car

A                                         Em
'Cause it always ends up with a town car speeding

            G
Out the drive one evening

 D
It ended with the slam of a door

                        A
But she's got the best stories you can be sure

                 Em
That as she was leaving

               G
It felt like freedom
