Capo 1 — play the shapes in A and it sounds in B♭ major. Much easier than fingering B♭ major straight.
Verse 1
Met you where the night kicked off
Blue lights, tan lines, sweet laughter
Lookin' like a Friday in a sundress breeze
Girl, you walked in and wrecked me easy
One drink turned into two
Two songs turned into me and you
Talkin' like we got nowhere to be
Like time slowed down for free
Pre-Chorus
Ain't talkin' forever, ain't talkin' long
Just right here while the night rolls on
Chorus
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Stay till the stars fade out
And the mornin' comes
Stay till the moon gives up
And the sky lights up
We ain't gotta call it love
We can call it fun
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Verse 2
Your hair in the wind on the passenger side
Dashboard glow and midnight eyes
Nothin' but a song and the ocean air
And your hand fallin' in mine right there
Don't know where this goes from here
Don't need all that right now, dear
Tonight's enough if tonight's all we get
And I ain't done with you yet
Pre-Chorus
Ain't makin' promises, ain't makin' plans
Just holdin' on while we still can
Chorus
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Stay till the stars fade out
And the mornin' comes
Stay till the moon gives up
And the sky lights up
We ain't gotta call it love
We can call it fun
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Bridge
And if tomorrow turns into goodbye
Girl, that's alright
Tonight's too good to think that far
Just be here where we are
Final Chorus
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Stay till the stars fade out
Till the daylight comes
Stay till the moon gives up
And the sky lights up
Maybe it ain't love yet
But it could be one
You ain't gotta stay forever
Just stay till the sun
Stay till the sun
Stay till the sun

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.
