[Opening]
Well [G]I got caught in Panama City, [C]trying to buy some [D]beer for some Georgia [G]girls
And [G]I got wore out by my daddy, for [C]stealing [D]cigarettes from the Smokes and [G]More
And [C]all my friends would get away, seems [G]I’d get caught, plain as day
I [Em]took the blame for [D]every little [C]thing
[chorus]
But I got [G]away with you, and [C]somehow I [D]still ain’t been found [G]out
It’s a [G]crazy truth, like I [C]strolled out the [D]gates of [G]Alcatraz
And I walked [G]in the Louvre, now the [C]Mona Lisa’s [D]hanging in my [G]house
I bust [Em]out of [D]Buckingham with the crown [C]jewels, and [D]I got away with [G]you
[verse 2]
[G] [D]
Well [G]looking like you do, [C]on its damn [D]own, should be a [G]crime
Let [G]alone a fool like me, [C]hand in hand with [D]you, should be doing [G]time
But [C]here we are running free, guess [G]someone turned the other cheek
‘Cause [Em]there ain’t no blue [D]lights in the [C]rear-view
[chorus]
Yes, I got [G]away with you, and [C]somehow I [D]still ain’t been found [G]out
It’s a [G]crazy truth, like I [C]strolled out the [D]gates of [G]Alcatraz
And I walked [G]in the Louvre, now the [C]Mona Lisa’s [D]hanging in my [G] [D]house
I bust [Em]out of [D]Buckingham with the crown [C]jewels, and [D]I got away with [G]you
[Closing]
[C]I’ll take it all, the fails, the falls, the [G]county jails and one phone calls
I’d [Em]do it all [D]again if I [C]had to
[chorus]
‘Cause I got [G]away with you, [C]somehow girl, I [D]still ain’t been found [G]out
It’s a [G]crazy truth, like I [C]strolled out the [D]gates of [G]Alcatraz
And I walked [G]in the Louvre, now the [C]Mona Lisa’s [D]hanging in my [G]house [D]
I bust [Em]out of [D]Buckingham with the crown [C]jewels, and [D]I got away with [G]you
[D]When I got [G]away with you; [D]yeah, I got away with [G]you
