LYRICS
I stood by the ex it door in the (C)ho tel ca fé.
He was play ing with his (G5)band.
I’ve (D)al ways been a suck er, had a weak (C)ness for a boy with a (Gmaj7)gui tar and a drink in his (G5)hand.
His (D)words were like heav en in my (C)hur ri cane;
my (Gmaj7)knees buck led un der; I thought (G5)ev ’ry one was watch ing me.
(D)Watch ing you save my life
with a song.
You were mine
in the back of my mind.
Oh (A7)just for one (Em7)night,
just for a while.
(D)There’s al ways one that gets a (Gmaj7)way,
the (D)one that sneaks up on you then slips a (Gmaj7)way.
Two weeks lat er I was sit tin’ in his a (C)part ment.
He was mak ing cap puc ci (Gmaj7)no.
I said, “What kind of man makes cap puc ci no?” We (D)laughed, we laughed, we laughed, (C)we laughed ’til tears ran down my face.
But my man you’re some one else ’s man, and that ain’t the (Gmaj7)man that I wan na want,
but you keep draw ing me in with those (C)big, brown, ly ing eyes.
But you’ll al ways be (Em7)mine
in the back of my mind.
Oh, (A7)we had a (Em7)night,
just a lit tle while.
(A7)life.
(D)There’s al ways one that gets a (Gmaj7)way,
the (D)one who sneaks up on you then slips a (Gmaj7)way.
(D)In a closed off (C)cor ner of my heart
I’ll al ways see your face,
the one that got a way.
The one that got a way.
Oh, the one that got a way.
(C)Oh, the one that got a way.
Oh, the one that got a way.
I’m not a vic tim of cli chés; I don’t be lieve in soul mates, hap py end ings or “the (G5)one.”
(D)Oh, but then I met you and all that (C)changed.
I had a taste and you’re still (Gmaj7)sit tin’ on the tip of my (G5)tongue.
But you were
The one that got a way.
The one that got a way.
