Written by Shan Gilbreath
Key: Bb Major
Chord Progression: Alternating Bb → Gm → Eb → Bb

[Verse 1]
Bb         Gm        
I’ve had a hard day, really, it’s been a long week,
Eb        Bb
Hell, maybe even a year, patience is at its peak.

Bb         Gm        
It’s been a long day, didn’t get what I came to get.
Eb        Bb
It’s been a long year, feel like I’ve been rode hard and put away wet.

Bb         Gm        
Oh, I hurt down in my bones, probably need a hot shower.
Eb        Bb
I know it’s only six, but for me it’s a late hour.

Bb         Gm        
Came by the greasy spoon, waited past noon,
Eb        Bb
Nothin’ to my liking… until I saw you.

[Chorus]
Bb         Gm        
Until I saw you, the world was out of tune.
Eb        Bb
Every mile I’d driven through was gray and cold and blue.

Bb         Gm        
But when you walked in the door, my sky turned back to true.
Eb        Bb
Yeah, I forgot what I came here for — until I saw you.

[Verse 2]
Bb         Gm        
I’ve seen my share of long roads, dust and diesel dreams,
Eb        Bb
And a thousand nameless faces that never said what they mean.

Bb         Gm        
But you walk in wearin’ sunlight, like you always seem to do,
Eb        Bb
And every battle, every bruise, just fades into you.

[Chorus]
Bb         Gm        
Until I saw you, the world was out of tune.
Eb        Bb
Every mile I’d driven through was gray and cold and blue.

Bb         Gm        
But when you walked in the door, my sky turned back to true.
Eb        Bb
Yeah, I forgot what I came here for — until I saw you.

[Bridge]
Bb         Gm        
Maybe I came for dinner, maybe I came for rest,
Eb        Bb
But I found the one thing that makes this life the best.

[Final Chorus]
Bb         Gm        
Until I saw you, I was just passing through.
Eb        Bb
Now the night feels brand new, and the world does too.

Bb         Gm        
Don’t need no plate, no table for two —
Eb        Bb
I got everything I need… when I saw you.
