Verse 1: C Not old enough to know, too young to take it slow C I sat at every barstool in this town C My friends grew up and wed, said the party had to end C But me, I never learned to turn it down C Now every night around this time, I give in to my own lies G Just one more, after all, what difference does it make? C And through my drunken haze, I accept what I can't change C C I remember the one who got away Chorus: N.C. G C I used to be happy, I used to be free C C But now that bottle, it's got it's ice cold grip on me G C I used to shine golden, now I fade away C C C So I'll keep drinking 'til I forget about the one who got away
Guitar & Pedal Steel Solos: C C C G C C C C Verse 2: C Don't know what day it was, who cares, what's done is done C Like a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea C Don't try and pull me up, it's too late I've given up C It turns out I'm right where I want to be C I remember how you'd plead C You said, one day you're going to leave G And I'd just try and find the right words to say C I know I let you go, but everybody knows C C I'm the one, the one who got away Chorus: G C I used to be happy, I used to be free C C But now that bottle, it's got it's ice cold grip on me G C I used to shine golden, now I fade away C C So I'll keep drinking 'til I forget about the one who got away C C Yes I'll keep drinking 'til I forget about the one who got away
