  D              G 
I saw him at the corner store 
D 
He gave me candy, 
       G 
I came back for more 
D               G 
I asked for his name  
        Bm            D* 
He said call me J for James 
       D   G 
He was 6'2 lots of style  
D                    G 
He had the recipe to make you smile 
          D            G 
But he got too popular with the girls 
     Bm                 D* 
So I erased him from my world 




D                G 
The next boy was cute and shy 
       D                      G 
But he never really looked me in the eye 
D           G 
Secretive I was intrigued 
       Bm                  D* 
He was sweet, his name was Pete (Sweet Pete) 
D                  G 
First time that he took me out, 
D                     G 
I didn't know what to talk about 
D               G 
So I took the initiative 
         Bm*     Bm*    D* 
And told Pete he had to leave 




       Em7 
So I'm back to square one 
         D                Em7 
With Mr. Good For Nothing John 
     Bm                  G 
Ever since he brought me down, 
  D                 Em7 
I can't get off the ground 
     D                 Em7 
It's not like I don't try, 
        Bm          G 
And I'm pretty easy on the eye 
         D           Em7 
But the one I really crave, 
       Bm*              
Is the one that got away 
     D                Em7 
With each boy he gets worse, 
    Bm              G 
But I'm still stuck on the first 
D              Em7 
Really hate to say, 
           Bm            D 
I want the one that got away 




D                     G 
 He's the star of the football team, 
D               G 
Can be found in every girl's dream 
D                  G 
We've been talking for a while, 
          Bm               D* 
You could say that he's on trial 
D            G 
But whenever we're alone, 
D                 G 
Your jaw's like a gramophone, cause 
D            G 
When he goes off the field, 
     Bm             D 
With him goes his appeal 




       Em7 
So I'm back to square one 
         D                Em7 
With Mr. Good For Nothing John 
     Bm                  G 
Ever since he brought me down, 
  D                 Em7 
I can't get off the ground 
     D                 Em7 
It's not like I don't try, 
        Bm          G 
And I'm pretty easy on the eye 
         D           Em7 
But the one I really crave, 
       Bm*              
Is the one that got away 
     D                Em7 
With each boy he gets worse, 
    Bm              G 
But I'm still stuck on the first 
D              Em7 
Really hate to say, 
           Bm            D 
I want the one that got away 




         Em7 
Here she goes again, 
                 D 
With another boy on her hands 
     Em7 
Word goes around 
             D 
Real fast in this small town 
          G 
All these rumors like I'm a stark, 
                    D              Em7 
Just wanna find someone to give my heart 
   D                G                     D 
No luck with James, Pete or the football stud 
                    Em7  G 
None of them can compare 
                    Em7 
None of them can compare 
      D* 
To my John 




     D                 Em7

        Bm          G

     D                Em7

    Bm              G 
But I'm still stuck on the first 
D              Em7 
Really hate to say, 
           Bm 
I want the one that got away 



           Bm*           D* 
I want the one that got away
