This song is from the album Storyteller(2015), released on 23 October 2015.
I enjoyed the simplicity and the beauty in her voice. The way she sang it had a great feel and power that made it really nice to listen. The lyrics were pretty great, and the production was also interesting.

[INTRO] Cm Ab Eb Bb x2
[VERSE]
Cm                    Ab                       Eb Bb
Never was the kind to think about dressing in white
          Cm                  Ab                    Eb Bb
Wasn't waiting on a prince to come riding into my life
              Cm           Ab
Thought I was happy on my own
          Eb                Bb
'Til you came and proved me wrong

[PRE-CHORUS]
            Ab          Eb                    Cm Bb
I finally found what I never knew I always wanted
             Ab        Eb                      Cm Bb
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
         Ab               Eb
I didn't know there was a hole
              Cm         Bb
Something missing in my soul
           Ab                 Bb
'Til you filled it up with your love, yeah

[INSTRUMENTAL] Cm Ab Eb Bb x2

[BRIDGE]
Cm                    Ab          Eb Bb
Never pictured myself singing lullabies
Cm                      Ab                    Eb  Bb
Sitting in a rocking chair in the middle of the night
          Cm          Ab
In the quiet, in the dark
          Eb                     Bb               Ab
You're stealing every bit of my heart with your daddy's eyes
        Bb
What a sweet surprise

[PRE-CHORUS]
            Ab                Eb                  Cm Bb
And now I'm holdin' what I never knew I always wanted
             Ab        Eb                      Cm Bb
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
         Ab               Eb
I didn't know there was a hole
              Cm         Bb
Something missing in my soul
           Ab                 Bb
'Til you filled it up with your love, yeah

[BRIDGE]
Ab                  Bb                      Cm
Life has a way of showing you just what you need
Cm                      Bb
And who you were made to be, yeah

[PRE-CHORUS]
            Ab          Eb                    Cm Bb
I finally found what I never knew I always wanted
             Ab        Eb                      Cm Bb
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
         Ab               Eb
I didn't know there was a hole
              Cm         Bb
Something missing in my soul
           Ab           Bb
'Til you filled it up with your love, yeah

I never pictured myself singing lullabies
