The Bolter / Getaway Car chords by Taylor Swift

C        G
By all accounts, she almost drowned
             F
When she was six in frigid water
            C
But you can confirm she made
            G
A curious child, ever reviled
              F
By everyone except her own father
            C
With a quite bewitching face
                G
Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless
               F
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
               F
And they nicknamed her "The Bolter"

C
Started with a kiss
                G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
                   F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
F
Out the drive one evening
C
Ended with the slam of a door
           G
Then he'll call her a whore
G
Wish he wouldn't be sore
        F
But as she was leaving
F
It felt like breathing
G        Am
All her fuckin' lives
          F
Flashed before her eyes
G         Am
It feels like the time
           F
She fell through the ice
F
Then came out alive

C             G
He was a cad, wanted her bad
               F
Just like any good trophy hunter
              C
And she likes the way it tastes
               G
Taming a bear, making him care

Watching him jump then pulling him
F
Under
                C
And at first blush, this is fate
                G
When it's all roses, portrait poses
              F
Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats
         C
What a charming Saturday
                   G
That's when she sees the littlest leaks
G
Down in the floorboards
       F
And she just knows
F
She must bolt


C
Started with a kiss
                G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

But it always ends up with a town
  F
Car speeding
F
Out the drive one evening
C
Ended with the slam of a door
           G
Then he'll call her a whore
G
Wish he wouldn't be sore
        F
But as she was leaving
F
It felt like breathing
G        Am
All her fuckin' lives
          F
Flashed before her eyes
G         Am
It feels like the time
           F
She fell through the ice
F
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
      C
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'
     C
There's escape in escaping

Bridge:
D            A
Cause we were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde
 Em
(Oh-oh)

'Til I switched to the other side, to the
   G
Other side

To the other si-i-i-ide
D           A
It's no surprise I turned you in
 Em
(Oh-oh)
              C9
'Cause us traitors never win
D
I'm in a getaway car
A
I left you in a motel bar
     Em
Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys
G
That was the last time you ever saw me


D
Drivin' the getaway car
      A
There were sirens in the beat

Of you heart
Em
Should've known I'd be the first

To leave
G
Think about the place where you first
   D
Met me
             A
In a getaway car, oh-oh-oh
                Em
No, they never get far, oh-oh-ah
  G
No, nothin' good starts in a getaway car

Final

    D
I was ridin' in a getaway car
   A
I was cryin' in a getaway car
   Em
I was dyin' in a getaway car
    G
Said goodbye in a getaway car
D
Ridin' in a getaway car
    A
I was cryin' in a getaway car
    Em
I was dyin' in a getaway car
   G           D
Said goodbye in a getaway car

Final

A
' Cause it always ends up with a town
   Em
Car speeding
       G
Out the drive one evenin'
D
It ended with the slam of a door
              A
But she's got the best stories

You can be sure
         Em
That as she was leaving
         G
It felt like freedom
