Intro

[C]

Verse 1

[G]

By all accounts, she almost drowned

[Fmaj7]

When she was six in frigid water

[C]

And I can confirm she made

[G]

A curious child, ever reviled

[Fmaj7]

By everyone except her own father

[C]

With a quite bewitching face

[G]

Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless

[Fmaj7]

Excellent fun 'til you get to know her

[C]

Then she runs like it's a race

[G]

Behind her back, her best mates laughed

[Fmaj7]

And they nicknamed her "The Bolter"

Chorus

[C]

Started with a kiss

[G]

"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

[Fmaj7]

But it always ends up with a town car speeding

Out the drive one evening

[C]

Ended with the slam of a door

[G]

Then he'll call her a whore

Wish he wouldn't be sore

[Fmaj7]

But as she was leaving

[G]

It felt like breathing

[Post-Chorus]

[Am]

All her fuckin' lives

[Fmaj7] [G]

Flashed before her eyes

[Am]

It feels like the time

[Fmaj7]

She fell through the ice

[C]

Then came out alive

Verse 2

[G]

He was a cad, wanted her bad

[Fmaj7]

Just like any good trophy hunter

[C]

And she liked the way it tastes

[G]

Taming a bear, making him care

[Fmaj7]

Watching him jump then pulling him under

[C]

And at first blush, this is fate

[G]

When it's all roses, portrait poses

[Fmaj7]

Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats

[C]

What a charming Saturday

[G]

That's when she sees the littlest leaks

Down in the floorboards

[Fmaj7]

And she just knows she must bolt

Chorus

[C]

Started with a kiss

[G]

"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

[Fmaj7]

But it always ends up with a town car speeding

Out the drive one evening

[C]

Ended with the slam of a door

[G]

Then he'll call her a whore

Wish he wouldn't be sore

[Fmaj7]

But as she was leaving

[G]

It felt like breathing

[Post-Chorus]

[Am]

All her fuckin' lives

[Fmaj7] [G]

Flashed before her eyes (Ah-ah-ah)

[Am]

It feels like the time

[Fmaj7]

She fell through the ice

Then came out alive

Bridge

[G]

She's been many places with

[Am]

Men of many faces

[C]

First, they're off to the races

And she's laughing, drawin' aces

[G]

But none of it is changin'

[Am]

That the chariot is waitin'

[C]

Hearts are hers for the breakin'

N.C.

There's escape in escaping

Chorus

[C]

Started with a kiss

[G]

"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

[Fmaj7]

But it always ends up with a town car speeding

Out the drive one evening

[C]

Ended with the slam of a door

[G]

But she's got the best stories

You can be sure

[Fmaj7]

That as she was leaving

[G]

It felt like freedom

[Post-Chorus]

[Am]

All her fuckin' lives

[Fmaj7] [G]

Flashed before her eyes (And she realized)

[Am]

It feels like the time

[Fmaj7]

She fell through the ice

Then came out alive
