N.C.
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car

It was the Cbest of times, the worst of crimes
I Gstruck a match and blew your mind
But I didnʼt Dmmean it
And you didnʼt Fsee it

The Cties were black, the lies were white
In Gshades of gray in candlelight
I wanted to Dmleave him
I needed a Freason

Pre-Chorus:
    CX marks the spot where we fell apart
    GHe poisoned the well, I was lyinʼ to myself
    I Dmknew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
    FWe never had a shotgun shot in the dark

Chorus:
    You were Cdrivinʼ the getaway car
    We were Gflyinʼ, but we never get far
    DmDonʼt pretend itʼs such a mystery
    ThiFnk about the place where you first met me

    CRidinʼ in a getaway car
    There were Gsirens in the beat of your heart
    DmI shoulda known Iʼd be the first to leave
    ThiFnk about the place where you first met me

    CIn a getaway car, oh-oh-Goh
    No, they never get far, oh-oh-Dmahh
    No, Fnothing good starts in a getaway car

It Cwas the great escape, the prison break
The Glight of freedom on my face
But you werenʼt Dmthinkinʼ
And I was just Fdrinkinʼ

Well, Che was runninʼ after us,
I was screaminʼ, «go, go, Ggo!»

But with three of us, honey, itʼs a sideshow
DmAnd a circus ainʼt a love story
And now weʼre Fboth sorry (weʼre both sorry)

Pre-Chorus:
    CX marks the spot where we fell apart
    GHe poisoned the well, every man for himself
    I Dmknew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
    It Fhit you like a shotgun, shot to the heart

Chorus:
    You were Cdrivinʼ the getaway car
    We were Gflyinʼ, but we never get far
    DmDonʼt pretend itʼs such a mystery
    ThiFnk about the place where you first met me

    CRidinʼ in a getaway car
    There were Gsirens in the beat of your heart
    DmI shoulda known Iʼd be the first to leave
    ThiFnk about the place where you first met me

    CIn a getaway car, oh-oh-Goh
    No, they never get far, oh-oh-Dmahh
    No, Fnothing good starts in a getaway car

Bridge:
    DWe were jet-set, ABonnie and Clyde (oh-Emoh)
    Until I switched to the other Gside

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

    DItʼs no surprise I Aturned you in (oh-Emoh)
    ʼCause us traitors Gnever win

    DIʼm in a getaway car
    AI left you in a motel bar
    Put the Emmoney in a bag and I stole the keys
    GThat was the last time you ever saw me (Oh!)

Chorus:
    DDrivinʼ the getaway car
    We were Aflyinʼ, but we never get far (donʼt preEmtend)

Donʼt pretend itʼs such a mystery
    GThink about the place where you first met me

    DRidinʼ in a getaway car
    There were Asirens in the beat of your heart (shouldʼve Emknown)

I shouldaʼ known Iʼd be the first to leave
    GThink about the place where you first met me

    DIn a getaway car, oh-oh-Aoh
    No, they never get far, oh-oh-Emahh
    No, Gnothing good starts in a getaway car

Outro:
    I was Dridinʼ in a getaway car
    I was Acryinʼ in a getaway car
    I was Emdyinʼ in a getaway car
    Said Ggoodbye in a getaway car

    DRidinʼ in a getaway car
    I was Acryinʼ in a getaway car
    I was Emdyinʼ in a getaway car
