Natasha Bedingfield 'The One That Got Away (Wamdue Mix)' chords
VERSE
F#mWould ya spare a minute?
Give me a single chance
ETo look in your eyes
Let me hold your hands
DbI want to get close enough
DTo read you
Understand you
F#mOpen up your heart
Open up your mind
ENobody needs another stalker in your life
DbI'm only here to help you learn to Dlove me
To know me
[Chorus]
AI need a hook so you won't be the one that got away
EI need a look that stuns you, makes you want to stay.
F#mDon't want to speak in case it comes out wrong
Don't want to bDlink 'cause in a second you could be gone
AI need a twist to help me to turn the story round
EI need a bridge to cross this dangerous ground
F#mMeet me in the middle like I want you to
DI gotta find your heart to shoot my arrow through
VERSE
F#mDid ya see me staring
You caught my eye
EDon't turn around
Don't walk away
