(*= one strum)



Intro- (2 strums per chord)

D G 
D G 
D G Bm D*



  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
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            D  
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*/mute
I want the one that got away



           Bm*           D*
I want the one that got away




Have fun!
