[Verse 1]
D E A D
When I was 16 I had a dream my eyes were green
D E A D
Just made my first CD, I longed to be on MTV
D E A D
I wore my heart out on my sleeve and girls were mean
D E A D
It happened
D E A D
Those college days just passed me by, I watched my friends get high
D E A D
Cannot peace out and say goodbye, I asked my mother why
D E A D
Can I stay home all day alone and play piano?
D E A D
It happens
[Chorus]
D E A D
'Cause today is gonna be your day
D E A D
No matter what gets in your way
D E A D
So open up your mind and maybe you will find
D E A D
Today is gonna be the day
D E A D
It happens
[Verse 2]
D E A D
Went with the boys to start a band without a plan
D E A D
We even made some waves in Germany and in Japan
D E A D
But it was over just as fast as it began
D E A D
It happens
D E A D
Got on a train to Leigh-on-Sea when it was history
D E A D
No time for misery, a glass half full is not empty
D E A D E D
But still occasionally I would think of how it used to be
D E A D
How everything was working out so well for me
D E A D
When it happened
D E A D
It happened
[Chorus]
D E A D
'Cause today is gonna be your day
D E A D
No matter what gets in your way
D E A D
'Cause things turn out alright if you believe they might
D E A D
Today is gonna be the day
D E A D
It happens
[Verse 3]
D E A D
After 11 years of space we start to gravitate
D E A D
Back to each other, you can call it karma, call it fate
D E A D E D
Rocked up to Glastonbury, there were just so many people there
D E A D E D
Flashback to when the guy from NME said nobody would care
D E A D
And now we're back out on the road, the album's almost good to go
D E A D
And if you're ever feeling low, you know, you know that
[Chorus]
D E A D
It happens
D E A D
It happens, oh
D E A D
So today is gonna be your day
D E A D
No matter what gets in your way
D E A D
'Cause things turn out alright if you believe they might
D E A D
Today is gonna be the day
D E A D
It happens
D E A D
It happens
D E A D
It happens
D E A D
It happens
