N. [Intro]C No, nothing good starts in a getaway car [Verse 1]C It was the best of times, the worst of crimesG I struck a match and blew your mindDm But I didn't mean itF And you didn't see itC The ties were black, the lies were whiteG In shades of gray in candlelightDm I wanted to leave himF I needed a reason [Pre-Chorus]C X marks the spot where we fell apartG He poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myselfDm I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursedF We never had a shot, gunshot in the dark (Oh!) [Chorus]C You were drivin' the getaway carG Dm We were flyin', but we never get far Don't pretend it's such a mysteryF Think about the place where you first met meC Ridin' in a getaway carG Dm There were sirens in the beat of your heart I shoulda known I'd be the first to leaveF C Think about the place where you first met meG In a getaway car, oh-oh-ohDm No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahhF No, nothing good starts in a getaway car [Verse 2]C It was the great escape, the prison breakG The light of freedom on my faceDm But you weren't thinkin'F And I was just drinkin'C G Well, he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!"Dm But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow And a circus ain't a love storyF And now we're both sorry (we're both sorry) [Pre-Chorus]C X marks the spot where we fell apartG He poisoned the well, every man for himselfDm I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursedF It hit you like a shot, gunshot to the heart (Oh!) [Chorus]C You were drivin' the getaway carG Dm We were flyin', but we never get far Don't pretend it's such a mysteryF Think about the place where you first met meC Ridin' in a getaway carG Dm There were sirens in the beat of your heart I shoulda known I'd be the first to leaveF C Think about the place where you first met meG In a getaway car, oh-oh-ohDm No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahhF No, nothing good starts in a getaway car [Bridge]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-i-ideD A Em It's no surprise I turned you in (oh-oh)Gm 'Cause us traitors never winD I'm in a getaway carA I left you in a motel barEm Put the money in a bag and I stole the keysG That was the last time you ever saw me (Oh!) [Chorus]D Drivin' the getaway carA Em We were flyin', but we never get far (don't pretend) Don't pretend it's such a mysteryG Think about the place where you first met meD Ridin' in a getaway carA Em There were sirens in the beat of your heart (should've known) I shoulda' known I'd be the first to leaveG D Think about the place where you first met meA In a getaway car, oh-oh-ohEm No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahhG No, nothing good starts in a getaway car [Outro]D I was ridin' in a getaway carA I was cryin' in a getaway carEm I was dyin' in a getaway carG Said goodbye in a getaway carD Ridin' in a getaway carA I was cryin' in a getaway carEm I was dyin' in a getaway carG D Said goodbye in a getaway car
