Naturally, Chris and Morgane met through their shared passion. Back in 2003 when she was still Morgane Hayes, the two crossed paths at the legendary Sea Gayle Music publishing company in Nashville, where Chris was employed at the time. Her friend was working there, too, and Morgane would hang around the office hoping to see Chris. "We'd hear the jingle of his keys as he walked down the hall, and we knew he was coming to play us whatever new song he had written," she revealed to the Washington Post. Chris joked to Paste magazine, "She was a stalker."
Their first date was a songwriting session one Friday night, but Morgane admitted, "We didn't get much writing done that night." They got married just a few years later, in 2007, with Chris telling Rolling Stone he secretly had the words "you are my sunshine" engraved on his ring. The couple performs the song together regularly.
