F                A             Dm            Bb    
I never saw the morning 'til I stayed up all night
Bb               C                F              Dm
I never saw the sunshine 'til you turned out the light
Bb              C                F              Dm
I never saw my hometown until I stayed away too long
Bb                 C              Bb       F  
I never heard the melody, until I needed a song.

verse:
F                A                    Dm             Bb
I never saw the white line, 'til I was leaving you behind
Bb              C                    F              Dm
I never knew I needed you 'til I was caught up in a bind
Bb               C                F              Dm
I never spoke 'I love you' 'til I cursed you in vain,
Bb               C                    Bb            F  
I never felt my heartstrings, until I nearly went insane.

I never saw the east coast 'til I move to the west
Bb               C                 F                 Dm

Bb                C                Bb               F
