[Intro]
G  Cadd9  D  Cadd9  x2
 
[Verse 1]
G
Austin's hung over from a late night bender
D
Playin' Tom Petty through a dusty old Fender
G                                             D
Neighbor's complaining that we're playin' too loud
 
We're too proud to turn it down
G
Played a couple gigs, booked a few dozen more
        D
Wrote a song about love, now they're waitin' at the door
G                                          D
Next thing you know we're all over the radio
 
[Chorus]
N.C.        G      Cadd9
Surprise surprise, never saw it comin'
D                        Cadd9
At the same time, wasn't looking for somethin'
G         Cadd9                   D   Cadd9
Big time, but I just can't see my life
    G                     Cadd9
Without music in it, it's like where you been
D                Cadd9
My whole life, I needed you in it
       Em                                                    A
Done a lot of things wrong but at least something turned out right
N.C.        G     Cadd9  D  Cadd9
Surprise surprise
 
[Verse 2]
G
Broke a few hearts, got mine broke too
D
Happy being single and then I met you
    G                                   D
Was instant chemistry the way it oughta be
 
Yeah, sunsets, you and me
G
Out all night tearing up the town
D
Fallin' in love and hangin' around
G                                                D
Next thing you know we're talkin' 'bout settlin' down
 
[Chorus]
            G      Cadd9
Surprise surprise, never saw it comin'
D                        Cadd9
At the same time, wasn't looking for somethin'
G         Cadd9                   D   Cadd9
Big time, but I just can't see my life
    G                   Cadd9
Without you in it, it's like where you been
D                Cadd9
My whole life, I needed you in it
       Em                                                    A   Cadd9
Done a lot of things wrong but at least somethin' turned out right
            G     Cadd9  D  Cadd9
Surprise surprise
 
[Instrumental]
G  Cadd9  D  Cadd9
 
[Bridge]
Em
  And I didn't know what to say
A7                                  Cadd9
When she said a little one's on the way
N.C.
Say what?
 
[Chorus]
            G      Cadd9
Surprise surprise, never saw it comin'
D                       Cadd9
At the same time wasn't looking for somethin'
G         Cadd9                   D   Cadd9
Big time, but I just can't see my life
    G                   Cadd9
Without you in it, it's like where you been
D                Cadd9
My whole life, I needed you in it
       Em                                                    A
Done a lot of things wrong but at least somethin' turned out right
         Em                                                  A
I done a lot of things wrong, thank God somethin' turned out right
N.C.        G     Cadd9  D
Surprise surprise
Cadd9           G     Cadd9  D  Cadd9  G
