CHORDS: Taylor Swift – The Bolter Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are The Bolter chords by Taylor Swift on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
C
By all accounts,
            G
she almost drowned
When she was six in
       F
frigid water
                      C
And I can confirm she made
A curious child,
         G
 ever reviled
By everyone except
         F
her own father
                        C
With a quite bewitching face
Splendidly selfish
             G
, charmingly helpless

Excellent fun till
            F
you get to know her
Then she runs like
       C
it's a race
Behind her back,
                G
her best mates laughed
And they nicknamed
         F
 her The Bolter

[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
"Oh, we must stop meeting
      G
 like this"
But it always ends up
                 F
 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

[Verse 2]
C                        G
He was a cad, wanted her bad
Just like any good
        F
trophy hunter
And she liked the
        C
 way it tastes
Taming a bear,
            G
 making him care

Watching him jump then
             F
 pulling him under
And at first blush,
         C
this is fate

When it's all roses,
          G
 portrait poses
Central Park Lake
         F
in tiny rowboats
                     C
What a charming Saturday

That's when she sees
               G
  the littlest leaks
G
Down in the floorboards
          F
And she just knows
F
She must bolt

[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
"Oh, we must stop
              G
 meeting like this"
But it always ends up
                 F
 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

[Bridge]
G
She's been many places with
Am
Men of many faces
              G
First they're off to the races
          Am
And she's laughing drawin' aces
     G
But, none of it is changin'
         Am
That the chariot is waitin'
           G
Hearts are hers for
 the breakin'
        Am
There's escape in escaping

[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
"Oh, we must stop
              G
 meeting like this"
But it always ends with
            F
 a town car speeding
F
Out the drive one evenin'
C
Ended with the slam of a door
                       G
But she's got the best stories
G
You can be sure
                F
That as she was leaving
F
It felt like freedom
G               Am
All her fuckin' lives
                   F
Flashed before her eyes
F
And she realized
G                 Am
It feels like the time
                     F
She fell through the ice
F
Then came out alive
