   B
I didn't see it coming
That kiss was so unpredictable
    G#m
And maybe it's the mystery
In you that I'm addicted to
     E                      A
It's overrated knowing somebody so well
    E              B
It takes away the fire
 A   E
Yeah
      B
It's funny when you tell me
You don't think you're all that interesting
  G#m
I beg to differ, with you I'm out here
On the edge of my seat
    E
And every minute guessing,
 A                         E           B   A
Holding my breath you're fueling that fire

Chorus:
    E               B
And baby you're my wild card
                  G#m
My perfect little twist of fate
           E
You're my first spark,
     A
Shot in the dark
 E               B          A
Favorite part of everything
     E             B
And baby you're a sweet surprise
              G#m
Lucky like a shooting star
            E
You're a strong, free,
       A
Just what I need,
E
Wild card

I'm an unsuspecting dreamer
Just marching through my every day
You don't follow any leaders
You make your mark, and make a change
You could see that I was living, oh
But baby, now I'm living the life, yeah

You can blame it on the gravity
The reason that I'm falling
But the truth is I would jump
And girlm you're everything I've wanted
It's a revelation, yeah, kind of elevation
Learning to fly

Chorus:
And baby, you're my wild card
My perfect little twist of fate
You're my first spark, shot in the dark
Favorite part of everything
And baby, you're a sweet surprise
Lucky like a shooting star
You're a strong, free, just what I need, wild card
Yeah

You're my wild card
Got me happy like a holiday
Out of the blue, been waiting on you,
praying for you every day

And baby, you're a sweet surprise
Looking like a superstar
You're a strong, free, just what I need, wild card

(All I need)
(All I needed)
Oh, baby!
All I need
All I needed
You're my wildcard
Baby, you're my wild card
You're my wildcard
Baby, you're my wild card
