Dead simple song, every chord is played for one bar. It's the same progresion all the way through even when key changes in the bridge; which is up a whole tone ( major) but still all easily playable without a capo.

Chorus You were drivin' the getaway car We were flyin', but we never get far Don't pretend it's such a mystery Think about the place where you first met me Ridin' in a getaway car There were sirens in the beat of your heart I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave Think about the place where you first met me In a getaway car, oh-oh-oh No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh No, nothing good starts in a getaway car verse 2 It was the great escape, the prison break The light of freedom on my face But you weren't thinkin' And I was just drinkin' Well, he was runnin' after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!" But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow And a circus ain't a love story And now we're both sorry (we're both sorry) Pre-Chorus X marks the spot where we fell apart He poisoned the well, every man for himself I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed It hit you like a shot, gunshot to the heart (Oh!) Chorus You were drivin' the getaway car We were flyin', but we never get far Don't pretend it's such a mystery Think about the place where you first met me Ridin' in a getaway car There were sirens in the beat of your heart I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave Think about the place where you first met me In a getaway car, oh-oh-oh No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh No, nothing good starts in a getaway car Bridge We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde (oh-oh) Until I switched to the other side To the other si-i-i-i-ide It's no surprise I turned you in (oh-oh) 'Cause us traitors never win I'm in a getaway car I left you in a motel bar Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys That was the last time you ever saw me (Oh!) Chorus Drivin' the getaway car We were flyin', but we never get far (don't pretend) Don't pretend it's such a mystery Think about the place where you first met me Ridin' in a getaway car There were sirens in the beat of your heart (should've known) I shoulda' known I'd be the first to leave Think about the place where you first met me In a getaway car, oh-oh-oh No, they never get far, oh-oh-ahh No, nothing good starts in a getaway car Outro I was ridin' in a getaway car I was cryin' in a getaway car I was dyin' in a getaway car Said goodbye in a getaway car Ridin' in a getaway car I was cryin' in a getaway car I was dyin' in a getaway car Said goodbye in a getaway car
