This sounds right to me and it hasn't been tabbed before.

Some useful chord shapes (6th string at top)

 G   Am7   C   D    Admittedly the Am7 looks strange but use it 'cause 
                    it sounds ace and flows quite nicely from the G chord
 3    3    3   2
 0    1    1   3
 0    0    0   2 
 0    2    2   0

Getaway

Intro: G       Am7       C       G       

Verse 1:

G
 Drove all night from New York City
Am7
   in ya best friend's car
C
 Knocked on my door 'bout five-thirty
G
 Nursin' a broken heart

Still got your keys in your back pocket
Still got your jacket on
Back doors open baby, I don't lock it
We can leave anytime we want

Bridge:
        C
I got my motor runnin'

fingers drummin'
                   D
I never planned to stay

Chorus: 

    C
Getaway, you know it's now or never
    G
Getaway, nobody lives forever
Am7                          C             G
   We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

Verse:


Hey baby, we were good together

Thought you'd always be my girl

But lookin' back now we were just too clever

Thinkin' love would change the World

Bridge

                C
You know there's no point in waitin' 
C
 Hesitatin'
C                 D
 We gotta leave today!

Chorus and then the chorus chords vamp round for (true to Bryan form) a few hours
with some improvised solos on top and a few lines from the chorus thrown in. True
fans will know what I'm on about.
