[Intro]
C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
There's nothin' like a billboard with a Bible verse
C
That sticks with you down the road
C
An Airhead layin' in the dirt on the side of that turn road
F
I bet I walked that field a thousand times
                                      C
Yeah, I like what I find when I ain't lookin'
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
Walkin' out with an amplifone when you went to pawn a gun
C
A pocket knife in between the seats
C
Cleanin' out your Granddad's truck
F
A little hidden gem you left behind
                                      C
Yeah, I like what I find when I ain't lookin'
 
 
[Chorus]
                 F
Yeah, kinda like you
    Am                 G                     F
The way you been on my life right out of the blue
         Am                       G                      F
I wasn't plannin' on leavin' that bar with nothin' but a buzz
                             Am                  G
But you showed up, gave me a chance, and girl, I took it
           Dm                    C         F
I couldn't dream it up no better even if I tried
                                      C
Yeah, I like what I find when I ain't lookin'
 
 
[Verse 3]
C
Yeah, I like livin' on my toes better than on my heels
C
Yeah, I like where I wind up when my hands ain't on the wheel
      Dm                  C                F
Yeah, I think the biggest blessing's in my life came in the skies
 
 
[Chorus]
F
Kinda like you
    Am                 G                     F
The way you been on my life right out of the blue
         Am                       G                      F
I wasn't plannin' on leavin' that bar with nothin' but a buzz
                             Am                  G
But you showed up, gave me a chance, and girl, I took it
           Dm             C                F
I couldn't dream it up no better even if I tried
                                      C
Yeah, I like what I find when I ain't lookin'
