Didn’t See That Coming
Didn't plan on any of this — but the night isn't waiting.
C major164 BPM4/43:17stomp-shoutmedium confidence
Verse 1
There's a suit hangin' on the back of a chair
Reservations sittin' everywhere
Got a whole weekend I can't undo
All planned out for me and you
Now I'm standin' here with a check-in line
And a story I can't rewrite
Girl, you really picked your time
Yeah, you got style, I'll give you that one
Pre-Chorus
I could turn around, go home, call it a loss
Or lean into whatever this is we got
Chorus
So I didn't see that comin'
Didn't think I'd be here runnin'
From a "forever" that just fell through
Now it's me and a "what do I do?"
But the night ain't waitin' on my plans
And I got a drink in my hand
If it's all goin' wrong, then let it go wild
Yeah I didn't see that comin'... but I'm all in now
Verse 2
There's a couple strangers sayin' cheers to me
Like they know exactly what I need
DJ playin' songs I used to skip
Now I'm singin' every word of it
And I swear I heard somebody say
"Man, you dodged one anyway"
I ain't sayin' they're right or wrong
But I ain't exactly sittin' here alone
Pre-Chorus
Yeah it hurts just enough to feel real
But not enough to kill the deal
Chorus
So I didn't see that comin'
Didn't think I'd be here runnin'
From a "forever" that just fell through
Now it's me and a "what do I do?"
But the night ain't waitin' on my plans
And I got a drink in my hand
If it's all goin' wrong, then let it go wild
Yeah I didn't see that comin'... but I'm all in now
Bridge
If you're out there thinkin' I'm fallin' apart
You should see me now, girl, I'm just gettin' started
This ain't the ending you thought you wrote
Nah, I turned that page into a whole new show
Final Chorus
No I didn't see that comin'
But I ain't standin' here runnin'
From a "forever" that slipped right through
Yeah I made somethin' outta "we're through"
Now the night's got a different plan
And I'm right where I stand
If it's all goin' wrong, I'm ownin' it now
Yeah I didn't see that comin'... and I like it now

Generated from the chord chart. These are real guitar shapes for the chords we detected, not a transcription of what was played on the record.
Raw note map (experimental)
This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
Download note mapA lead sheet, not a full score. The melody line has been reduced automatically from the recording and paired with the detected chords. Expect the shape of the tune to be right and the details to be approximate.
