Getaway Car chords by Taylor Swift

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

Intro:
FF
(No, nothing good starts in a getaway car)

Verse:
      C majorC
He was the best of times, the worst of crimes
 G+G
I struck a match and blew your mind
       A minorAm
But I didn't mean it
        FF
And you didn't see it

  C majorC
The ties were black, the lies were white
  G+G
The shades of grey in candlelight
      A minorAm
I wanted to leave him
      FF
I needed a reason

Pre-Chorus:
C majorC
X marks the spot, where we fell apart
G+G
He poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myself
A minorAm
I knew it from the first old fashion, we were cursed
FF
We never had a shotgun shot in the dark

Chorus:
C majorC
You were drivin' the getaway car
G+G
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
A minorAm
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
FF
Think about the place where you first met me
C majorC
We're ridin' in a getaway car
G+G
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
A minorAm
Shoulda know I'd be the first to leave
FF
Think about the place where you first met me
C majorC
In a getaway car
G+G            A minorAm
No, we never get far
FF
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car

Verse:
      C majorC
He was the great escape, the prison break
  G+G
The light of freedom on my face
        A minorAm
But you weren't thinkin'
        FF
And I was just drinkin'
   C majorC
While he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!"
G+G
But with three of us, honey, it's a side show
A minorAm
And a circus ain't a love story
       FF
And now we're both sorry (we're both sorry)

Pre-Chorus:
C majorC
X marks the spot, where we fell apart
G+G
He poisoned the well, every man for himself
A minorAm
I knew it from the first old fashion, we were cursed
FF
It hit you like a shotgun shot in the heart

Chorus:
C majorC
You were drivin' the getaway car

We were flyin', but we'd never get far
A minorAm
Don't pretend it's such a mystery

We're ridin' in a getaway car

There were sirens in the beat of your heart
A minorAm
Shoulda know I'd be the first to leave

In a getaway car

Until I switch to the other side

To the other side

'Cause us traitors never win

Put the money in the bag and I stole the keys
