Dead simple song, every chord is played for one bar. It's the same progression all the way through

even when the key changes in the bridge; which is up a whole tone (C major to D major) but still all

easily playable without a capo.

Intro

N.C.

No, nothing good starts in a getaway car

Verse 1

It was the

best of times, the worst of crimes

struck a match and blew your mind

But I didn't

mean it

And you didn't

see it

The

ties were black, the lies were white

shades of gray in candlelight

I wanted to

leave him

I needed a

reason

Pre-Chorus

X marks the spot where we fell apart

He poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myself

knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed

We never had a shotgun shot in the dark

(Oh!)

Chorus

You were dr

ivin' the getaway car

We were fl

yin', but we never get far

Don't pretend it's such a mystery

hink about the place where you first met me

idin' in a getaway car

There were s

irens in the beat of your heart

I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave

Thi

nk about the place where you first met me

In a getaway car, oh-oh-

No, they never get far, oh-oh-

ahh

No, n

othing good starts in a getaway car

Verse 2

It was the

great escape, the prison break

The

light of freedom on my face

But you weren't

thinkin'

And I was just

drinkin'

Well,

he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go,

go!"

But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow

And a circus ain't a love story

And now we're

both sorry (we're both sorry)

Pre-Chorus

X marks the spot where we fell apart

He poisoned the well, every man for himself

I kn

ew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed

hit you like a shotgun, shot to the heart

(Oh!)

Chorus

You were dr

ivin' the getaway car

We were fl

yin', but we never get far

Don't pretend it's such a mystery

hink about the place where you first met me

idin' in a getaway car

There were s

irens in the beat of your heart

I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave

Thi

nk about the place where you first met me

In a getaway car, oh-oh-

No, they never get far, oh-oh-

ahh

No, n

othing good starts in a getaway car

Bridge

We were jet-set,

Bonnie and Clyde (oh-

oh)

Until I switched to the other

side

To the other si-i-i-i-ide

It's no surprise I

turned you in (oh-

oh)

'Cause us traitors

never win

I'm in a getaway car

I left you in a motel bar

Put the

money in a bag and I stole the keys

That was the last time you ever saw me

(Oh!)

Chorus

ivin' the getaway car

We were

flyin', but we never get far (don't pre

tend)

Don't pretend it's such a mystery

Think about the place where you first met me

Ridin' in a getaway car

There were s

irens in the beat of your heart (should've

known)

I shoulda' known I'd be the first to leave

Think about the place where you first met m

In a getaway car, oh-oh-

No, they never get far, oh-oh-

ahh

No,

nothing good starts in a getaway car

Outro

I was

ridin' in a getaway car

I was

cryin' in a getaway car

I was

dyin' in a getaway car

Said

goodbye in a getaway car

Ridin' in a getaway car

I was

cryin' in a getaway car

I was

dyin' in a getaway car

Said

goodbye in a getaway
