Summer after h

And on my 18th

              
 birthday we g

              
ot matching ta

  
ttoos
        
Used to steal 

your parent's 

liquor and cli

mb to the roof

Talk about our

 future like w

e had a clue
            
Never planned 

              
that one day I

              
'd be losing y

[Chorus]

             
In another lif

We keep all ou

So I don't hav

[Verse 2]


I was June and

 you were my J

ohnny Cash
      
Never one with

out the other 

we made a pact
            
Sometimes when

              
 I miss you I 

              
put those reco

    
rds on... woah

Someone said y

ou had your ta

ttoo removed

Saw you downto

wn, singing th

e blues
            
It's time to f

              
ace the music,

              
 I'm no longer

       
 your muse


[Chorus]

              
But in another

             
 life I would 

       
be your girl
              
We keep all ou

            
r promises be 

              
us against the

 
 world
             
In another lif

              
e I would make

     
 you stay
              
So I don't hav

            
e to say you w

              
ere the one th

        
at got away

The one that g

ot away
           
  The one    t

       
he one    the 

one

  The one that

 got away


[Bridge]

             
All his money 

              
can't buy me a

            
 time machine,

 
 no
             
Can't replace 

            
you with a mil

            
lion rings, no
            
I shoulda told

              
 you what you 

           
meant to me, w

oah

Cause now I pa

y the price


[Chorus]

             
In another lif
