  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

    Bm              G

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

D              Em7
Really hate to say
           Bm
I want the one that got away

           Bm           D
I want the one that got away
